The Frenzy piques my interest a little, I would like to try it if I get a cool deal on it, but they gotta get back to the stuff that worked like Ravage, Total Annhilation, Mayhem, Shock & Awe, Seek and Destroy, those were all awesome, and gave me a good edge over some of the guys using Strom or Ebonite.

From my wandering around this site, it doesn't seem that Morich is that popular. Around my house, tournaments, and even the PBA I don't see them often.
You won't see them on the PBA at all this season. Mo & Co. didn't want to cough up the massive amounts of dough the PBA blackmails out of ball companies. I just recently got my first MoRich, also a LevRG and I am also very happy with this ball. I'm gonna shop around for a couple more out of the LevRG series.

And yeah, it's sad that Morich doesn't have the money to be allowed on the PBA. But then again, they didn't bring that much air time to the table anyway. Danny Wiseman threw it a few times as well as Walter Ray. But it didn't seem to match up well with Walter on tv. Oh well...

2 friends had the original LevRG as an oil ball, and both hated them because they did not perform well. On the other side, I played at a tournament in Belgium last year in the squad of the winner, and he used an Ntense LevRG that was ultimately shredding the rack.
That seen and said, I think that the introduction of a weaker MB core with the Frenzy (and also the Solid LevRG) was a sound step, but in the previous years Morich maerketing has moved the brand into a "hook monster" corner where any ball that comes with a milder core would disappoint the public - even if it would IMO make preformance- and versatility-wise more sense.
Maybe things will get back to "normal", but at the moment I think MoRich is at a marketing dead end with lots of disappointed users.

I love my morich shot my first 300 with my awesome flip.... and the new frenzy is just flat out amazing.... Also as a word of warning with the awesome finish you may want to drill it slightly stronger as it is VERY tame for the type of ball it is...
I tried out my finish the other night in league and was very suprised how much it moves on the backend,the only Mo ball I own that rivials my Intense Inferno!

I have a seek & destroy, levrg, ntense levrg, and a sahara. I''''ve had my high sets with the s&d, levrg, and then the ntense levrg and I really like their equiopment. However, now that I''''ve made adjustments to my game and have more hand, (low end cranker high end tweener here) I find that it''''s difficult to control and get a consistent reaction with my Mo equipment. And since that category is a large percentage of bowlers it''''s tough to win us over!
The awesome finish however is in my opinion one of the greatest balls they''''ve ever produced. Even though it''''s still got that big Vanguard core the Spectrum coverstock tames it and gives a great read on the lanes. It gives smooth length with readability in the midlane and great finish. It''''s one of the few balls with a large core that isn''''t over/under. I still recommend that ball to people looking for something controllable on shots from dry to medium. The only condition I don''''t think it''''s best for is longer oil but it could still do the trick.
The AFinish is the one ball from them that has great core design with the best coverstock I think they''''ve designed. It''''s one of those solids that can handle wear and tear and produce great friction on the lane. However, nowadays everyone wants hybrid covers and low grit pearlized reactives, and when you combine that with crazy RG level balls and heavy/large cores you get crazy uncontrollable reaction.
It''s a shame with what''s been happening with them and also with Big B lately.

I think because of how big and heavy the cores in Morich equipment are it''''s tough for people to match up with them. For crankers they can really get the ball down the lane and make Morich stuff do a left turn. For strokers the core will rev up nice and quick and give them hook where they never could before. However for the bulk of people in between, tweeners, or high end strokers/low end crankers the equipment becomes very drill specific and can be very over under.
I have a TA, Ravage, Onslaught, Mayhem, and WMB. The only 1 I absolutely didnt like was the WMB. Each of them were great when I could read the pattern forward, but at no time could I loop any of the balls. With the amount of revs I have, playing up the lane is not always an option on the THS. Mo's stuff just never seemed to match up too well for that. My favorite of the balls was the Mayhem, because it was enough shell and roll (and a proper drilling) to read the midlane while playing in. The TA was very lazy from inside.
My favorite look was probably the Onslaught, but I had other things that overlapped it. So I just cut my losses and moved on.

So far, I've really loved the LevRG. Sahara is alright, less sensitive to release changes. The Solid LevRG moves consistently at least which is more than I get out of the Ntense. I will definitely play with the Ntense to get it to work because it does have some potential I believe. But I miss the days of slapping any old drill on a ball and having it work great. Mo's pieces, unfortunately, are not too accomodating with that mindset.

only one that worked well with me was the collosses supream I have also tried the wmb and the levrg both didnt match up with me.
Why would you buy LevRG after you bought WMB that you didnt like? You know the LevRG is going to hook more earlier than the WMB yet you buy it? Why not try the Nsane or Ntense or Solid?

I've always loved Brunswick coverstocks but their cores are sometimes spotty for me. MoRich cores give me that powerful look to open up a lane that I love.

Why no love for Morich?
Because they suck, that's why. Also, any company with a reference to the name "rich" which is too close to the spelling of the grand poobah of Sawdonks, is a little sketchy in my book. There you go, you're welcome.
Because people like Sleepy worry to much about the name of a company than what the equipment does. Or he is not a good enough bowler to get the stuff to work for him, and thus it is the companies fault for his shortcomings...pardon the pun.

I still think the LevRG matches up the best with me. I just can't ask for ball that rolls better than it does. I may be drilling up a Ravage soon so we'll see how the old school MoRich works out.
