Which should I buy...Smokin Inferno or Arsenal Reactive??
« on: September 07, 2005, 02:07:13 PM »
I'm trying to make up my mind as to which ball I should get. To see what I have already see my profile. I believe the Reactive would be a step above my raging inferno but below my GP2, but I'm not sure where the Smokin would fit. I'd love to get both, but just can't afford it. Both balls are absolutly sweeeet looking, so that doesn't help. Give me some suggestions about what I should get and which would fit better in my arsenal.

No way, The Raging is a degree stronger than the Arsenal Reactive. The AR is more equivalent to the Absolute Inferno, which itself is also a step below the Raging, in terms of oil handling and earliness of its roll.

The Smoking is probably around the Hexplosion, in your arsenal, but will probably hook more overall. The Smoking is a medium to medium-light oil ball in general. It's a go-long and hook-hard, WHEN it finds dry, like the general nature of a normally drilled Hex-plosion.

Most Brunswick users are disappointed in the Smoking Inferno solely because they expect every premium Brunswick ball to be a "Danger Zone" type of ball and handle all kinds of oil. They never listen to what the ball SHOULD be used for.

The Arsenal Reactive should probably fit below the Raging, but you may have to drill it SLIGHTLY weaker than the Raging to fit properly. This is just a guess and you should really consult with your driller.

Charlest & Others....

A teammate of mine has the Rampage....How does the Smokin compare with that? I seem to think that the Rampage is a medium-Medium Light type of ball from what I've seen. It really rips off of the dry. If the Smokin is comparable, I don't think thats exactly what I'm looking for.
