Flat out hook. Getting it out of the box screamed Absolute inferno type cover. Feels like a pearl, but you know for sure it isn't one.
Punched 5.25 by 50, pin smack above the bridge, which these days is my most reliable layout. Box finish.
I am going to have to use it a little more to see if it breaks in and settles down. If it doesn't it will find a trip to the spinner and go either 4k or polish.
On scorpion last night, I was using my kill release 16 to 8 and because I suck at my kill release, I only shot 610ish for 3. Even with this weak release the ball was threatening to punch past the 9 pin. One shot I think I put about 5 revs on it, and almost left an 8-10 from that same angle (still carried it, but it was late), but a ball should be washing out from that angle at that speed on scorpion, not tipping at the breakpoint.
Unless drilled weaker, this ball should be as useless as tits on a bull on a house shot, unless the bowler feels like piping it gutter to gutter. I CAN see it becomming a more versatile ball with polish, but I want to test it on a couple of conditions first. I could see it rolling out on a medium condition unless polished or drilled appropriately.
s75 cover? feels like s150...
Comparative balls? Cross between a bronze centaur and a Black Widow solid with more overall hook potential and stronger exit out of the oil. Has more continuation overall than an Absolute Inferno if I decide I want to hit it.
I don't know whether to keep it in the bag for the floods or drill another and polish this one. I'll work it out this week.
