Wreck-It
« on: August 11, 2016, 06:09:54 PM »
My video for the Wreck-It.  This ball just hooks way more than it's supposed to, it feels more like it should be in the HP3 line.  Thanks for watching!

It this going to have the legs(sales volume) of the Wrecker in your opinion?

I think it might be one of the best balls this year. If you need a versatile ball in the medium-light category I don't think you could go wrong with it.

BJI ball reviews just gave it a 59 in overall hook. I was flabbergasted to say the least. I expected a sanded Wrecker to have a rating of maybe 50-52, more or less. (Yes, I know the Wreck-it is not a Wrecker; but they are close).

I think we'll have to wait to see what more people report on this apparently very unusual ball.

FYI for BJI reviewed balls, the standard for the biggest hooking balls used to be a 60 in overall hook. Only recently has that benchmark been exceeded. For the Wreck-It to have a 59 is totally unexpected.

Luke,

I thought you converted to left handed? Or was I mistaken or have you recuperated??

Yeah I seen that also, I'm assuming that was a typo. I'm sure it's strong but that was a little far fetched where they placed it on the chart.

I have a friend who recently picked up a Wreck-it and he found that it reacted similarly to the Hy-wire but had a little more pop in the backend. A smooth yet strong reacting ball.

Anyway I'm curious to hear if anyone named Ralph has picked up and reviewed the new Wreck-it...lol

Both T Zones and the Wreck-It both personally contain messengers.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if some reviews gave the Wreck-It high hook ratings. All of the Wreckers I've seen in my area move a ton from medium to high volume conditions. Now a 59 from BJI does sound like a typo, but I don't think it would be too far off either. The new coverstock should be stronger than the original.

It's the same cover that's on the hustle s.a.y. It can't be that strong.

I'm sure it's strong for the price but it seems like people are comparing it to balls in the HP4 line. If that's the case why would people spend $170 on a ball when they can just spend $95 and get a similar reaction.
