I've been using my Tour X Solid for about a month. It is an outstanding compliment to the Tour X, and does what you would expect a solid version of the Tour X to do.
The high RG gives this ball easy length through the front of the lane - even with a sanded surface (my preference for this ball). The solid cover picks up earlier in the mid-lane than the pearl cover of the Tour X. In my opinion, the back end response is smooth and predictable - more of a soft arc motion. The original Tour X is a bit more angular. However, both of these balls have stronger backend motions than the Tour SIC.
My pin-down below the bridge with a weight hole around P3 is the ball described above. I also have another one with the pin right of the ring finger that provides a great controllable look on shorter patterns. I would highly recommend this ball, particularly for mid-to-high rev bowlers who are looking to control ball motion on more challenging sport shots. DEFINITELY a must-have for tournament bowlers!

I've been looking at the ball hard since it came out. I love the pearl, shot two 300's with it. I like Track but some times I miss on there higher end stuff. Really like the symmetric stuff.

Their high end stuff has always bombed..

I had three of the 9 series and the only one I like was the 910a.
I liked a couple of the 7's and I like the 811 SE. I like the 5's and 3's.

for me it was the POWER MACHINE that ruled!

Well if we are going old school before EBI, Phenom Unleashed was a beast! Exception was great as well. Lots of good stuff from Del and the gang back then!
