G3 and Ogre SS
« on: December 18, 2007, 10:41:55 PM »
How do these balls compare given the same drilling and coverstock preparation?

Depends on how you lay them out, ball surface, your technique, lane surface and condition.  ALL things consdiered G-3 much stronger piece than the SS.

With its higher RG core and the more modern coverstock the SS is supposed to go long and flip/break sharp, maintaining energy well, while the G-3 with its lower RG and much more differential is smoother, covers more lane area with the same setup and breaks earlier by tendency - even though it is also pretty flippy when drilled to go long and have a sharp breakpoint. IMHO, the SS is useful on lighter conditions than the G-3, while I'd consider the G-3 simply to be the overall stronger option.
