For those that own the BITE
« on: February 10, 2008, 11:36:55 PM »
How do you guys like the BITE?  I know of 3 people who own the BITE and 1 really hated it, the other really liked it and the third guy just got his so doesn't know yet.

I used mine for the first time tonight in our sport league.  Even though it only has three league games and one practice game, I think I'm going to like it.  If you don't have oil in the front, keep it in the bag.

well im a high rev player
and the ball drilled negative pin below fingers cg kicked out neg side...is uncontrollable
the ball either rolls out at my feet, or goes long and snaps differently everytime

thats why i dont like mine personally,


What is a negative drill?  

This ball is extremely strong.  Most that don't like it are trying to use it on too little oil or have the improper drill.  I didn't like the Epic Odyssey, not a bad ball, but a poor layout choice for me.

Too many shops still uneducated about assymettrical equipment. I've seen it in action, and the guy who throws it really likes it. Its a tad earlier than his TNV and stronger off the spot.

I have used every Black Widow and shot 300 with everyone of them and the bite is about 2-4 feet earlier than the solid but much harder off the friction.  The solid seemed to be a hard arc and the pearl was not that far from the solid except a bit more length and slightly more angular.  When my solid seemed to be just to touchy off friction the Bite is the answer.

BTW- I like it and their has not been a Black Widow I have felt is a bad ball as of yet.

This is a GREAT Ball, an improvement of the Original Black. Needs oil. Also, the tracking could be because the cover seems soft, which is why it's so aggressive.
