Why carry anything other than my primal rage?
« on: November 22, 2014, 08:12:56 AM »
The primal rage is certainly the best ball I have ever thrown, and may just be the best ball ever made! Every time I try to throw something else at any house I bowl in, my scores just seem to suffer due to not kicking out corner pins. We are on a mini vacation right now, and I brought one ball with me to throw at a bowling alley in this area. Of course I brought my primal rage. I could carry everything with it until I would burn up my line, causing he ball to not finish. I would bump left a little and proceed to start carrying again. The ball read the lanes like a dream. I ended up shooting 659, which is really good for me. I missed a few easy spares. I threw another fourth game, and ended 181 or so with back to back 8-10 splits in the 9th and 10th when the ball didn't finish.

I completely agree with you.  I won a Tribal Fire and got recommended to throw the Primal Rage.  I have since added the Ascent Apex for drier conditions (haven't thrown it yet)....but thinking I would like to buy another Primal Rage.  Heck I'd like to buy several before it gets discontinued...to ME...it is that good!

How does the tribal fire compare to the rage? My dad has the original tribal, and it has more overall motion than my rage does, and it is all down lane. The two are drilled differently of course (both thrown by a third person who was testing our two balls.)

My tribal fire is drilled pin right of the ring, cg under ring, and this ball hooks much sooner than the Rage.  It does hook quite a bit.  Hard to tell if it's more than the Rage, as its a different look.  so overall it probably covers more boards.  However I really don't feel real comfortable with it yet.  Where the Rage just matched up well and don't really need to throw anything else.  I think the fire is far stronger than med/light oil!!  Rolls good and hits hard, just a completely different look for me.
