hard decisions
« on: September 24, 2016, 08:44:06 AM »
With so many new releases coming out, how does one decide? I am so tempted to pull the trigger on the mission unknown. I think I am going to hold out for the columbia impulse. What will be your next ball purchase?

Doom
I know a lot of guys were disappointed in the Redline.  Most felt it was jumpy and had an inconsistent reaction.
I actually like mine a lot.
I took a lot of ribbing on the color, but nobody was laughing at the way it blew up the rack. Like you said earlier, a lot of times its how one matches up to a ball.  I guess the Redline and me are a good match.

As far as to decide rather to stay brand loyal, or be open to all manufacturers, to each their own: All I know is that as somebody mentioned earlier, is while it can be overwhelming with all the choices out there, you can and usually will LIMIT yourself staying in the same line as well. I'll always consider Storm/Roto no matter what,  but I also will always consider Motiv, Brunswick,  and Dv8 and keep my options open on what suits me best, versus one single line by one company.

I got a Redline for free, and it's at the shop all plugged up and waiting for me. I haven't heard stellar reviews about it, so I'm not hoping for much. However, I do have a inside line on a Revolt. That, I'm excited about.
Covert Revolt or Revolt Havoc?

The next ball I buy? Probably will be either a Hy-Wire, Respect Pearl, IQ Tour#4, or a Reactor covered ball depending on how my last few purchases roll when I drill them.
League: Pitch Purple, Destiny Magenta
Testing: MVP
Interests: Black Widow, Proof Solid, Idol Pearl

I couldn't wait any longer so I got a mission unknown. Ending up getting a red one. It is one sexy ball!
