t-road pearl vs black widow polished
« on: September 27, 2007, 07:56:22 PM »
how much different is a t-road pearl from a black widow if both are polished about the same.

My TRP is less sensitive to oil down lane and reads the pattern better as compared to my BWP.  To combat this I've since taken the surface of the BWP down a bit and it become more predictable.

I read the lanes better with the BWP than the T-Road Pearl. I love my  BWP been bowling great a couple of 278's and a 279...and 298...with this since I had it for about 2 weeks. My T-Road its not coming up the same at first it would break a ton now after 20 games on it its lost a lot of its reaction. SO I like my BWP right now

The BW works great at 1000 or 2000. I've done it. Out of box it is too skidish unless there is a ton of friction.
