Let me start by saying I'm a huge fan of the recent releases by track. My dude Paul is on staff with them and there stuff rolls tremendous in his hands. I watched him throw his and was wowwed by the reaction so I decided to by my first track ball in almost 6 yrs.
Ball specs:
15 lbs 5 oz
1 1/2 oz top weight
About a 4 in pin from pap with a lefty cg offset
Drilling:
Double thumb
60x4x30 with x hole 1 7/8 from the thumb
Lane conditions:
43 ft high volume with out of bounds from gutter to 5
Let's bowl:
I wanted something that would read and peel harder on heavily oiled lanes and to try the double thumb layout. My initial read was that the ball reads the mids really well but in all that oil the ball gave me ovr/und. Polished this ball would idea for a wet/dry. It gets through the first 35 ft with ease, reads the midlane, then peels. But with that condition the ball was just too squirty. We took it down to 2000 and it was like night and day. The ball made the condition look easy, reading the mids so much better and giving me the hook I needed on tighter conditions.
Summary:
The uprising is a versitale ball. OOB the ball can be a monster on almost any pattern except the two extremes (dry/oil). 2000 makes the ball a heavy oil titan, like a rising but about 5-7 ft later and more pop on the back. The carry is tremendous! One of the strongest and best hitting balls on the market. I'm a huge roto fan but the uprising is well worth a try. Money well invested.
