Surprise: Brunswick Diamondback Pearl being stronger then my Wild Thing or Evil Siege.


Disappointment: Hammer Jigsaw being so awesome, but can't use it past the first game of most sets due to lack of oil. Added polish to this ball to become a beast that carries the world. Unfortunately the lanes aren't ready for this ball yet.

Surprises:

Virtual Gravity - Had one sitting for a while and decided to go back and give it a go.  A very versitile ball for me that just loves most conditions I will see. Love the predictibility of it and how it reads the lanes for me and tell me with one flat ten it is time to move or time to put it up.

Clutch - perfect step down for me from the VG.  Was looking for that medium ball that didn't overreact off the dry and have energy in the back end.  The best bang for the price out there bar none in my opinion.

Disappointments:

Bounty Hunter Pearl - Never could match up to this one.  Tried a bit of everything and never got the look or the hit that I was expecting.

Mutant Cell - Haven't found the right conditon/surface for this one yet, but will keep trying as I see a ton of potential in this ball.

They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

Surprise: Hammer Raw Acid, AMF Heist Pearl
Disappointment: It's a stretch but I'm having a hard time finding a place for my 900Global Break Pearl to work.

Also loved the Motiv SX-1 when I first got it but now I'm having issues with it.

suprise: Raw Hammer Jacked: Ive drilled 3 so far, one pin under bridge, one pin over bridge  and one pin over middle finger...  all three jackeds allow me to cover 85% of all oil patterns i see without having to worry about making major adjustments..  


Dissapointment: Motiv Tr2  this ball just never matched up for me...  OOB this ball was just very "blah"  Polished it was a dart...  i think i got rid of it in under 15 games

Surprises.  Rattler, Freeze, Nomad Pearl, C-systems, siege, all the AMF balls, 505c, mission

REFS: MrEddie(BBE), notsohotshot(BR), akanayte(UTA), Tywithay(BBE)

Surprises: Storm Dimension and 2nd Dimension. These two have performed exceptionally well for me since the day I got them. With the pin-over-ring Dimension at 2K Abralon, and the pin-over-middle, shined up 2nd, I can match up well to the majority of conditions I face.

Disappointments: Cell Pearl. Through multiple surface changes, this ball never reacted the way I intended. My beat up Thunderstruck Solid easily outperformed it.

Surprises: Attitude Shift and Furious

Disappointments: I know that people will strongly disagree, (maybe) but for me the Gravity Shift. Ever since I got about 15-20 games on it, it's lost reaction ever since ever with the rejuvinators help. As well as other oil extracting methods.
