Just got the Jigsaw Corner in... ball looks like a sno cone.. haha. Hope it doesn't hit like one. Drilled pin up, this thing should be mean on the backend. Pics are up here: http://s647.photobucket.com/albums/uu195/tizzle08/Latest%20Arsenal/

Hope this thing is all its cracked up to be.. We will see tonight!

Unrelated to first post comment:

Your Sting has some black swirls in it. It looks awesome, but the few I''ve seen around here have been just different shades of blue. Very jealous.

Good luck with the Corner, looking forward to review.

I punched one up last week and havent been really impressed like I thought I'd be. I dont think I've hit the right amount of oil with it yet, but it still didnt impress me. I've had great luck with Hammer, thats all I'm currently throwing... I'm not gonna give up on it yet though, I might try to mess with the coverstock a bit.

Well got to use it a bit tonight. Fresh ths.. I immediately noticed the length and the dramatic breakpoint shape. This thing flat out moves. Compared to the mutant cell which was drilled stronger, the Corner had more length (to be expected), but the surprise was that it still covered overall more boards. Compared to my magic action, the move was later, and about 1 board more overall. The thing that made this ball stand out from them both was one thing though.. carry! This ball hits very hard. Even the sound when it hits the pins sounds different. I think I could have shot big scores tonight with it, but this brings me to my one and only dislike. I can''t tell when the ball is about to make its move. The color makes it like the ball is not moving at all.. then bam.. pocket shot or bam... through the nose. The last game I began looking at the swirl motion and began to pick up on its move. It will just take some getting used to! On the whole a very nice ball.. I will go out again Sunday and throw some games with it.

Note: This ball seems very sensitive to your release. If I didn''t hit at the bottom of my swing, I knew it. If I hit it too much.. it went brooklyn.. very sensitive.. just like the original jigsaw! Just ordered an invasion for an earlier look..

I love the Jigsaw Corner. Very predictable, and everything and more than I hoped it'd be. Great ball.

I got to use the Jigsaw Corner again, this time on a slightly broken down ths. Began the game out standing against the ball return, breakpoint around the middle arrow, that was the only place where there was oil. Came out double, split, string of strikes to the 9th frame, spare, off the sheet. One thing about this monster is its sensitivity to releases. Changed to staying behind the ball to delay the reaction, and this thing just destroyed the rack. I had to put it away after that. To get a idea of just how much this ball hooks, I ended up using an Avalanche (lime green/black), and moving a full 10 boards outside with my feet and a full arrow to get it to the pocket, and that was with my normal release with alot of side rotation. I am very happy with the Corner, now I hope the invasion just gives me an earlier look for those heavier tournament patterns!
