ive seen 1 video of someone using it on youtube... cant look it up now as i have no flash... but other then that i havent seen anything that gives much of an idea how it is.

bowlers journal said that even though it shares the same core as the sure strike the actual shape of the ball reaction is much more of an arc.

I call it a very strong arc and almost a flip from watching Jim King/BTM use one at a SASBA/Ebonite Senior Tour stop! The ball actually had a very amazing reaction at the breakpoint! He was using this ball last month and I went up to him to see what ball he was using, very strong ball! Thanks, Bruce

I bought a Counter Strike at USBC's in Albuquerque and just haven't had a chance to use it until today.

I'm a medium speed, medium revs bowler. I was using this on a heavy carrydown condition today.

Carrydown? What carrydown? The ball went down the lane and turned the corner like there was no carrydown at all. And it doesn't deflect much at all. Strong ball with good carry.

Two things I did notice was that I could not swing the ball very much or it would not get back to the pocket. And if I threw it in the slop in the middle it slid a LOOONG way.  But if you throw straight up the boards in a carrydown condition, I can't imagine that it could get much better than this.

Of course this was based on only 3 games. I'll post again as I get more games on the ball.
