What is your Favorite Oiler of all time?
« on: January 15, 2012, 03:38:38 AM »
Alright a fun opinion question as the title stats what is your favorite Oiler of all time?

 

Alot of good choices out their and we have all had some good ones.

 

My Current favorite is my Solaris Requiem for its predictability and consistency off the spot never any surprises, even with a more angular drill pattern it is consistent love it. I have taken the Requiem to Nationals the last to years and have consistently had more room to play with it than guys have with Theorys, Taboos, Missions, and Marvels. 

 

All time favorite though has to be the EPX t-1, I had one that was in a later batch so it didn't fall apart right away I actually put about 100 games on it before it quit on me. Made every pattern no matter how heavy the oil was or how tight it played look like a house shot.

I was going to say the Cell, but since I sold that and still have my Legend New Standard, that must be it. As implied above,I rarely see more than medium oil,  and that only if I get very lucky.

All time would have to go  with the original Chaos. Mine never died and used it many times to handle the oil. Current would have to be my Break Out or Eagle with some surface on them.

I think the Visionary Granite Gargoyle deserves a mention,  available for many years, a very unique surface, very versatile with cover changes including hvy oil.

The Visionary ball that I thought was best for a flood was the Midnight Scorcher - urethane with particles.

Gonna have to go with the Raging Inferno.  Back in the day - if you had this ball and it was a heavy pattern, you had an advantage over anyone who didn't have one.  Honorable mention:

 

Trauma ER

V2 Solid

Blue Hammer

Black U dot

Original Danger Zone

Forest Fire
