Title: Onslaught vs Ravage
Post by: LuckyLefty on August 03, 2005, 12:30:50 AM
I've seen the Ravage, BIG!!!

Have not seen the Onslaught!  Have a chance at one from a friend....cheap.

A friend says it makes an L at end of lane!

Mr. Lucky already throws a lot of Ls!

Well?

just about the same core Lucky...slight density changes.....but the Onslaught will be slightly more angular.......

THAT IS..........if both drilled the same ....drilled to be "angular".....

Basically a bit sharper overall than the Ravage........

LUCKY...you should've let me know you were interested in this ball...I had one up in NC I could've thrown to let you see how it works on our side (though I don't think it's easy to get a read on a ball the way I throw it)! I love it though...it's the next step up from my Wired, which is my benchmark, go-to ball. I threw my Onslaught last night third game...just LOVE IT (though the pin does get annoying every now and then. Very strong on the backend. I will say this though, that it is drilled to get down the lane and snap, whereas my Wired is drilled a bit more archy if that's even a word  (GREAT...now the rightie takes over the left side of the lanes AND makes up his own words...GEESH)!

Even now he says...."Who am I?",  (swings the arm a few times in a bowling stance).

Hey Lucky,
You'll probably like your Onslaught, but it does tend to snap! You have to be firm with your speed.

My first time OOB I used it on second shift condition. Long Lite oil condition with a little carry-down. Perfect for this piece. The craziest thing was...all strikes that I got had superb carry....BUT....the pins fell in X's. Yes that's right, I said X's as in strikes!! The pins would continually criss-cross each other and go down in X's. Hardly ever in just one direction.

I don't know if anyone else has had this experience, but it was the craziest thing I'd ever seen a ball do.

Mine drilled 3 x 6 mb up 2 3/4 and this ball is great but the Ravage can do the same polished. To me the Ravage flips more!!

Honestly I got a lot of balls. No NOT BOWLING BALLS!

LuckyLefty,

I'm glad I was able to leave such a good impression on everyone (although I hope he doesn't start bowling like me...Carpal Tunnel SUCKS)! If you decide to get rid of your Wired...PLEASE let me know. It is one of my top 3 balls to date (right up there with the Cuda/C and the Green Gargoyle). Tell your boy I said hey, and hopefully we'll catch up sometime. I can't remember...where do you hail from?  Till then...
