Has anyone thrown both of these balls? I am trying to decide which one to purchase.

I must start by saying the Hy-Road is one of my all time favorite balls ever made. The Reign Supreme is a great addition and is very close to the Hy-Road but quite stronger in the mids than the Hy-Road. In my opinion the Dagger is much longer and more angular than both, i took the polish off the Dagger with 2000 then 4000 abralon and it is still very, very strong off the friction.
So in short if you want a ball reaction that is more skid flippy go with the Dagger. If you want more predictability and roll Hy-Road or Reign Supreme.

Well said here.. the reaction shape on the hyroad is rounder, meaning smoother off friction. Punched up a dagger today, and i can honestly say even though it is a lot more aggressive once it hits friction, it didn't jump one time on me all night. This says a lot as I am rolling in one of the oldest houses in my city that has extremely old wood lanes that are notorious for flying backends....very good piece from roto..
