First impressions, Great
« on: September 22, 2007, 12:49:12 AM »
Well,
I joined the Visionary test staff a few weeks ago.  I've had two weeks to use them in league and as of right now, all I can say is wow.  The Ogre Pearl is the first ball out of my bag,  it's funny but I use this as my benchmark ball.  It allows me to judge where to go from there.  Last night the oil was a little sketchy, the Immortal Pearl was a little too much but the Ogre Pearl wasn't really finishing like I'd hope.  But I figured with 3 lefties (yea 3) on the pair, and both using agressive balls, I could play in between them.  First game 234, second game they started to dry out fast (agressive coverstocks and a really warm house) Third game I switched to the B/G Centaur and had 221.  I was able to play right down 5 with the ball and have it arc into the pocket, no signs of over reaction.  While the other guys were standing 30 or deeper looking at the 4th arrow.  I really like what I see so far with these balls.  The only one I haven't really used is the Frankie May Gryphon.  There's not enough oil for it.  I was thinking of giving it a slight polish but I really don't want to mess with it.  I'm sure I'll need it in oob condition soon.
