You have to compare apples to apples, not apples and oranges.
    apples and oranges are very similar, both round, both fruit, both bright colored, and grow on tree's, i would think a more appropriate saying is don't compare bowling balls to pins

    No Ben. Read it again. Like apples and oranges have a lot of similarities, so don't heavy oil balls and dry balls.

    Default Dicks Sporting Goods!!!!!!!

    Dicks sporting goods has their Ebonite Nitro on sell for 29.95!!!! In all weights, including drilling! I don't want them to drill it, but even then it would only be another 30, plus 10 for the vise thumb insert, plus insurts for the finger holes 10, total 50 bucks I am going to run up there and get one today!!

    That's a urethane cover with a pancake weight block. Don't waste your money.

    what's wrong with that? its not meant to hook lol, i can see it being a little extreme when going from the marauder to something that weak....

    from what i can tell, yes it's less aggressive, a lot less aggressive, you may find it a lot weaker than you think. i think an entry level ball would be a better choice, misfit?

    Bill does know more though.... bill go!

    Default Bill gave some good advice, so says our pro driller!

    ITs been marked down at my local Dick's Store! NOT ON LINE! Believe it or not that includes drilling regurlar, or finger tip!! I think I will take Bill's advice,,, and get either a cyclone, or MIfit!
