I'm looking to replace my Hammer Real Deal. I have a NIB XXXcel on the way (part of the combo deal with The One from Buddies), but I'm wondering if there's a better choice, besides the obvious, 'get another Real Deal' suggestion that is likely to creep up. Here are the numbers:

Real Deal
Diff: 0.057
RG: 2.48
Coverstock: Solid particle

XXXcel
Diff: 0.056
RG: 2.52
Coverstock: Solid Reactive

Trifecta
Diff: 0.056
RG: 2.47
Coverstock: Solid Particle

I love my Real Deal, and, given the opportunity, I would gladly trade for a NIB. But, since that deal hasn't been offered, I'm going to have to make something else fill that slot. I want a ball that will mimic the reaction I get with my Real Deal, which is a slight read in the midlane with powerful arcing backend. Of the two balls listed above, which do you think is likely to give me that look?

two of my friends got the trifecta and they both hated them. There reasons were not enough hooking power. One throws 2 fingered on second shift dry lanes and it doesnt come back for him. From what i heard the XXXcel is a touchy ball so sorry to burst your bubble.
