On the 38 ft pattern, it is less volume of oil and a different lane surface. This ball does resemble a urethane like reaction in that it is smooth off the spot. BUT - in no way does that mean it is flat on the backend.....Noooo Sir! This ball like all other Motiv Balls clears the fronts with ease but - when it moves off the spot, you see a strong arc that continues through the pins. If you move left a little, you will have to put a little more into your release to keep the angle to trip out the corners, but believe me this ball hits hard just like all other Motiv balls. The Reverb cover with Motiv balls really do make the pins dance.
On the 41ft pattern, you have to start a little more right than the 38ft, but you get essentially the same reaction in that it does clear the fronts, I mean it should - there is more oil and Hey its a Motiv ball right? LOL, but it also still has recovery if you find friction and let it do its work, very smooth and pin peircing.
The low density cover makeup combined with the recon core provides great control with awesome length and smooth breakpoint!
Compared to my other Motiv Balls, the Recon RX1 will fill any bowlers need for dry lanes!
