    the furious has more over all hook.. but the fast has alot more angle on the backend.. if you want length its the fast.. hook its furious... if you want both hy-road or the new reign.. the thunder line will be in between the premier (VE) and hot line (fast and furious)... the hy-road has the hrbrid r2s cover which is a mix of the fast and furious coverstock but with a more aggressive weight block.. with he hybrid ball you get good length and a more controllable back it.. it will be a smoother snap than the pure pearls..

    Hmmm i'll consider the reign against furious. I think ill go with furious for more hook but virtual energy seems more aggressive and it has lots of hook like furious.

    ~Update~
    I've been looking around forums and trying to refer more people onto this forum ;D and asked a lot of questions like this thread here. This guy told me this

    "I'd get the Fast or maybe the HyRoad. Since you have cut your teeth on the power goove you should be fine with either. The Virtual Energy is a pearl ball. And as such can be pretty jumpy and hard to control coming off the dry area of the lane. If your ball speed is pretty good, then maybe the Furious. But its a dull ball and isn't going to have the pop off the dry that you might be looking for. Also if your ball speed is slower then the furious will roll out and lose energy.

    Erin"

    What do you guys think?
    Honestly I don't really have an opinion since i dont know what he meant by "But its a dull ball and isnt going to have the pop off the dry that you might be looking for." I think hes reffering to the lane conditions o.o. And what does he mean by "Also if your ball speed is slower then the furious will roll out and lose energy."
    I'd like your opinion on this post StormBowler13 ;P

    most of the time the solid balls like the furious will not snap "pop" off the dry.. They will get into a earlier roll and actually are usually more controlable balls.. The Fast will have the "pop" but will not cover as many boards as the furious... The hyroad is half pearl and half solid "hybrid" so you will still get the length as the pearl, but with a little more backend due to it being half solid

    I dont know my rev rate. From scale from slow medium and fast. Its...
    Rev Rate: Medium
    What you are looking for the ball to do: The hook mostly and bowling in medium - heavy oil.
    What part of the lanes do you like playing, the outside "down and in" or about 20 or even deep inside...
    Ok I used to play deep inside but now my ball lost its hook i play outside. I dont really mind what part of the lanes i play. i always keep adjusting.
