« on: February 11, 2013, 12:19:21 AM »
The brand new Korrupt from Lord Field! Featuring the same core from the Heritage and a brand new CoreUpt Particle Cover this ball is supposed to be sick. It features a 2.480 RG and a 0.049 Differential. This ball is gonna rev up and hit like a truck for lower rev players and higher rev players are gonna love the smooth but still strong and continuous motion. What are your guys thoughts on this awesome new release from Lord Field? Pick yours up on April 15th

I have my Korrupt drilled and practiced a little bit with it. The layout is 45x3 3/8x45. For me it has a terrific motion to the pocket. It does not over react but it has a very smooth yet strong move to the pocket and destroys the pins.


Rich,

Can you comment further on what lane condition its suited for, length, backend and midlane read in comparison to other releases?

I drilled my Korrupt a couple of days ago. It has a very unique roll with good backend motion. I have about 10 games on it but the conditions were not ideal for the strong cover and core. I will get at least 30 games on it this week in different houses to get a good feel for the ball and post a full review.

Have thrown the Korrupt 3 league nights now. 740, 723 and 673 with no practice and a bad first game. This ball is strong. We have had heavy oil on our house shot lately and this ball is perfect for the condition. More to come.

I received my Korrupt last week and have thrown 3 times on 3 different conditions. All were THSs with a different amonts of wear. I practiced on two worn conditions and threw it in league on a fresh, newly laid shot. On the fresh shot it was money for about a game and a half. I am a power-tweener and step down in equipment and try and hold line. During the practice sessions, I did move with the piece for the whole game. I like to find range in practice and hold line during league play. A couple things I have pulled from the first week.

First, the ball is strong overall. Not just at the spot. It continues well even on the worn patterns.

Second, it does not over hook unless you make it. Sure I didn't throw a strike every time it went down the lane, but it didn't surprise me with a jump or roll out on a well thrown shot.

Last, just like any ball with surface, you have to take care of it. It picks up a sheen quick. I clean every time it comes out, but I could see it affecting performance if not taken care of.

Overall it is a strong heavy pattern ball. It rivals the Taboo Solid and Nexus Solid pf that were in my bag. I look to have a video up on YouTube in the next couple of weeks. I know that there are already a few up. Looking forward to getting this ball on some sport conditions to see how it does.

I agree about the strength of the ball.... It is clean through the fronts for me and reads the midland exceptionally well..and the backend is sharp for me..they have been running sport shot tournaments on the lanes we bowl on for Saturdays so they double strip the back ends and I'll tell you this ball will fly off the spot on clean backs.. I love the ball just have to know when to put it away.
