Here is a video review of the Nail. Looks and sounds to be what you're looking for.

I got one just last week. To me its more aggressive than what I thought it would be, however, a very, very, nice ball.

I've got mine pin above bridge and it definitely is stronger then the Vibes, IMHO!

Got this ball for my birthday, 14 lb, oob finish, pin drilled between bridge, i consider myself a stroker, with med revs and slow to med speed, 198 avg.  i bowl on wood lanes with guardian.  1st 2 weeks of league i was able to break 500. The third nite (last mon) i tried a different shot, from 15 to about 7, and shot 216, 257, and 269 for a nice 742. this ball is stronger than i thought, gets thru heads great, then seeks the dry, and goes left, and for the price it is well worth getting one.     

The Nail is like many balls in this type of performance line. It isn't going to really read and roll in the oil, but it still comes off the dry plenty hard. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that it doesn't snap off the spot the way a lot of similar balls do. With this one, I have faith that I can get it to push through the front, and it's not going to be "left turn, Clyde" once it comes off the pattern. It finishes strong and hits very well, but it remains stable. All in all, it's a very nice piece if used properly.

I don't understand why the Nail is so much stronger than the Grape Vibe?  I mean the core on the Vibe looks stronger than the Nail core.

Hammer is showing differences of over 4 boards at the arrows for the NaIL.

I mean neither ball is core weak by any standard.
