Former co-worker of mine asked if I had any 14 lb. balls and I told her the only one I had was my AU that I picked up to try out 14 lb. vs. 15 lb. equipment.

She has a Red and Teal Power Groove and a Smash/R that she uses and I was wondering how much a AU would differ from the Smash/R?

I'd say her Smash/R is drilled 4"x5" with the pin a little over 2" above the ML, and my AU is 4"x5" to mb with a small diameter hole near the PAP.

Considering the surfaces are the same what differences would one see between these two balls?

Hey J_Mac,

From what I can remember about he Smash/R, it is weaker compared to the Animal Untamed.  The Untamed can take many looks depending upon where you place the mb as with all stronger asym balls.  Hard to give you the true differences without knowing how you're going to drill the Untamed.
