Similar to Desert Heat? (until Track is re-established)
« on: March 21, 2007, 07:20:28 AM »
I'm looking to get a new ball to replace my Desert Heat, which is developing a crack. What would be a good replacement from all companies, in case I have a big problem trying to find another one?

I thought the same thing, but the RG and Diff numbers are different - core looks to be the same, but inverted in the balls.  Not sure how that affects the ball reaction.

Haven't thrown the Desert Heat, but the Orbit Xtreme is a great ball....can't beat the price!

for dry lanes, I use the Brunswick BVP Punisher drilled weak...great ball and it doesn't lack any hitting power.
