Title: IQ Tour Pearl vs Optimus
Post by: jdkstrejcek on February 05, 2016, 10:53:33 AM
Hello everyone!

I have Optimus (God know how good this ball is!)

I have an opportunity to buy IQ Tour Pearl for a very good price so im confused!

If i compare this ball its look same but...

Should i buy IQ Tour Pearl if i have Optimus in my bag or its very needless and better look for an another ball?

Thank you!

I'd love to hear some thoughts on this too as I'm an Optimus owner but I love my IQ Nano. The thought of having a pearl with that core is very intriguing.

If you have a developed arsenal, I would say yes. However, it has the same idea except the Optimus can handle more oil with the stronger cover and core.

Well the IQ tour pearl is essentially 1 step down core wise & 1 step down cover wise.

Opti- R2X / Tri sphere core (strong)
!QTP-R2S / C3 control (tour diff)

Where it would work for me....

I can usually bowl 2.5 games with a fusion....I usually struggle to finish the 3rd game out...10 pins, 4 pins, etc.  If I had a slightly weaker cover...I'd have it made...

I love my black/purple Tropical Heat. The Reactor hybrid has a nice and smooth reaction. I think that cover on the C3 Tour core would be a nice step down for you, Bill.

It's weird I got a ton of stuff.  But believe it or not my best look is going about 10 left with a freakin frantic.

Or just balling down to an uproar is it winds up just like my fusion.

I never matched up with the NOS core. Over/Under city!
