Title: RG Hectic Replacement
Post by: NY Mike on May 09, 2018, 11:52:57 AM

I have had a HECTIC for several years now, what is the ball of choice for replacement ?  Thinking Hustle - HYB or INK.

Another Hectic. It has a cult like following because there isn't anything that's quite the same right now.

Agreed, regret not listening to my first mind and not getting one; Havent found one like that reaction ever since.   The hustle's you mentioned, are NOT hp1 balls they have the performance of a hp2 line, do d another hectic if you can.

Nothing out there right now. Best bet is to get another Hectic. I see them FS FT in  Facebook group from time to time. Got to be quick before Luke jumps on them.

Bought a Hectic at the beginning of the year because I kept seeing how good of a dry lane ball it was. Had it drilled and I think it has about 5 shots on it - shots not games. Never ended up needing it. Local house never got that bad this year.

HYB and Ink are much much stronger

Doesn't currently exist, HOWEVER there are a lot on Facebook on the Storm sale/trade group.  I've got 3 now.

I’ve got one drilled (given to me free - I was a very happy person),one undrilled, bought on clearance.
Check the usual suspects. FB, EBay, Craigslist... one will show up eventually.

I recently punched a Hustle POW.  It's not the Hectic but it's actually really close, you won't find anything closer on the market and it's a lot closer than I thought it would be.  I would actually recommend it as a Hectic replacement.

If you match up the the HYB, the current Hustle line could basically be your entire house shot bag...
