How did you get one so fast. I ordered one today through buddies and they said it would take a couple of weeks. Please let us know how yours is drilled and what type of reaction I can expect.

Hello ALL,

I just got off the phone with "my driller" (Leon Lamm; Charlotte, NC). I asked him last night to call Freddie and get "the SCOOP"....... Freddie said; "This IS the BEST ball they have ever made, SOO good that they came out with it 2 months early". He was in the middle of giving a lesson, I will get more info later...........

Take care,   Jeff

I will be posting pics and layouts of the 2 shock & Awe's that I drilled last night after league tonight. These balls are as described to be, very angular and they carry the off-hits real well especially the light hits.
I give more info after another night in league tonight..

Here are the pics of my 2 Shock & Awe.  They both roll great and are very angular like advertised even with these layouts. The surface is compound from the factory and I sanded one with 2000 abralon.

The one on the left has some length too it and is a little on the flippy side but not real bad, mainly I think that ball is because of the ball not so much as the drilling. The ball corners and carries real well on the off hits. Plus I have this ball 2000 abralon pad, if I was to polish this ball I think if will be real flippy on the back. But with the abralon pad on this ball its reads the midlane real well, and this ball HITS.

  I do not spin the ball at all,my tilt is only 15 -16 degree at best. Mo likes for my balls to read the midlane to help me carry, that is why he lays out my stuff with a lot of weight holes on the midline and close to my grip.
The ball does kinda look like the absolute but it has a lot more blue color in it. This ball is really a smooth rolling bowling ball with nice angle and hit.
I think if you anyone would drill one of these balls with the pin above the fingers and shine the ball that it would extremely sideways on the backend.
The layouts that I have on these balls are good because they are controllable.
This ball is one of his best so far, especially for the ball being resin.
