While it is a terrific ball and an excellent bargain, a word of caution about its "high sheen" finish. Some people did not take that into account. It does give greater than average length, but it makes the turn on fairly heavy oil considering that finish. It is normally for medium-heavy oil but I wouldn't put the pin in too high a position. Also be ready, to adjust the cover. if necessary, for your release or the oil on which you use it. If you're a high speed bowler, it's probably better for medium oil, obviously.
