It reads the midlane well, then has a strong continuous hook without jumping left like someone kicked it.
The ball motion is similar to my DV8 Marauder Mutiny that I have drilled pin down and the CG in the center of my span, but the Melee flares more and handles heavier oil. The Brunswick rep I know said that if the Cross reads too early for you, have your pro shop hit it with some polish. This will make the ball go longer before hooking.
