Title: Radical balls to go above and below the Grease Monkey Pow
Post by: Buckwild on January 16, 2015, 12:07:26 PM

Hi,

Want to start adding Radical to my bag and would like to know which 2 Radical balls should I pick to go above and below my Grease Monkey Pow (drilled pin above ring, cg in center of grip)? This is for a THS currently and for tournaments this summer. In my neck of the woods (New York) I don't see heavy oil for leagues, but would like to be prepared for tournaments. I would like to start with a 3 ball radical arsenal then expand to 4-5.

The POW is already towards the lower end of the spectrum of Radical, but there are a few options like the Torrid Affair, Torrid Elite, and original Grease Monkey.  A lot of options above.

They have a chart on what conditions each ball is recommended for.

My suggestion just leaning towards the THS would be:

Below:   Grease Monkey

Above:    Reax V2 Solid or Yeti Unleashed.

Way above would be the Guru.

I am not certain how the Score would fit it. It may overlap your POW somewhat.

[/quoteI wouldnt say the POW is on the low end of anything but the price. Great benchmark piece. Perfect middle of the road ball for an arsenal.

Here are a few option:
Above: Yeti Unleashed
Below: Grease Monkey

Then later add: Guru and Yeti Uncaged

Hi,

I ended up adding a Original GM for below and Reax V2 and Uncaged for above. Will have these drilled later this summer before the winter league.
