I cant decide between Epic Battle, BIG ONE, or Seek and Destroy. Im looking for something that'll hook in the heaviest of oils when nothing else will hook.

so far BIG ONE:6
       Battle:7
       Seek and Destroy:2
       Action:2
       RSP:2
       Total shock & Awe:2
       Passion:7
       Visionary AMB solid particle:3  
       Yeah Baby:1
       Big Bang:1
       Trifecta:1
       Majestic zone II:1
       Scorchin' Inferno:1
       Time Zone:1
       Goliath:1
       Swamp monster:1
       Robo Rule:1
       Rule GP2:3
       EPX T1:3

will update when I get votes

I've never thrown any of those

If I had to buy a heavy oil ball I'd get the Passion

You could go with any of these except the RSP and probably the Action.  If you go with the Big One you'll probably have to change the surface for although it has a very high hook potential, the 4000 grit finish helps it get down the lane.  The only other two I have experience with are the S&D, my personal favorite ball, and the TS&A.  I find that the TS&A oob will hook quite a bit more, rev up quicker and have more of an even arcing motion.  The S&D will get down the lane and have a very strong arc.  I have one that is a 4x5 1/2 layout that I keep at 4000 grit abralon.  This ball is best for med/hvy and is very versitile.  I also have another S&D, I can't remember the exact layout off the top of my head, but it has a similar pin to pap, with a much lower pin above mid (about 1", whereas the other is in excess of 3") and a slightly higher min to mb.  Anyways, this ball revs up much quicker and is alot more even.  That is the versitility of a strong asymetric core, you are able to alter the reaction shape alot by changing the pap to mb, the pin to pap, or the pin above mid.  This ball is currently at 4000 grit to make it useable, but if I enter a big tournament with the possibility of a heavy condition, I can dull this ball and use it on true heavy.  Either of these are great options for true heavy oil.  I've also heard that the Super Carbide Bomb from lane 1 and the Rule GP2 are good choices as well.

The Epic Battle is one of the best higher volume/longer pattern balls made today. It combines a powerful asymetric core, low load particle coverstock
which gives the bowler a great read. The Battle seems to just roll down hill
all the way through the rack. I've thrown many so called heavy oil balls and none compares to this one.
