The Marauder is a polished ball that clears the heads easily, has a good mid-lane read and strong once it reads the friction. The Madness has a matte finish and would burn up easier when the lanes started to dry up.

thats the interesting thing about company secrets, the name they give in could be completely inaccurate and simply be a marketing tool lol

Yeah, at least 80 feet long to have room for a pair of practice lanes...Oops! Wrong thread!

What's the problem you're having with your Revenge?

More like 100ft

You could probably get away with 80, but if your going big you may as well do it right.

I just ordered the misfit and get it Wednesday, I was thinking my next ( more aggressive ball) would be a marauder. Then the third would be.....insert dv8 ball of choice, maybe the hell raiser series to complete my total arsenal( I think)

it looses energy in the middle of the second game, i dont like switching balls. i want to stick with one and a spare ball, though revenge is a very nice ball
