Title: Just won a Gladiator...
Post by: trash heap on May 19, 2008, 12:44:37 AM

I won a Gladiator at the PA State Tournament this weekend....NOT sure what to do with it. I throw C300 equipment. Anyone know where this ball fits in my arsenal?

I'd say overall probably close to a Rival.  Smooth rolling ball.

I would say probably between the Resurgence and the Action Packed. I have not thrown either of those but have seen them and I have the Gladiator. Hope this helps. May not be your last Visionary

Scott/MC...My Big Shot is the ball between my Resurgence and Action Packed. The Big Shot set up for length.

Is there a preferred drilling for this ball? I don't think drilling it strong is the answer.


Brad,
I was at Eastway on Saturday...actually did better there. My Resurgence worked really well. As soon as the lanes start drying up is when I struggle. I couldn't keep my Urethane off the nose at Meadows.
