Mutant Cell Ball Review

[MSUHoss300]

I have drilled 2 Mutant Cells so far. First one I drilled is just a favorite layout of mine, 45 x 4 3/4 x 65 puts pin under my bridge, mass in a strong position with a hole down. Second one is 70 x 4 x 30, pin is above and to the right of ring finger drilled mass out with thumb, no hole. In comparison to the original Cell I think this ball is a little cleaner thru the front and is a little more continuous down lane. Basically a Cell on steroids. In comparison to the Rogue I find the biggest difference to be length, The Rogue for me was very early rolling, Mutant clears the front very easily. Mutant #1 is going to be a ball I use quite a bit on the shorter PBA patterns, it is very smooth and controllable, predictability is what I am looking for especially on these conditions. Mutant #2 is going to be for the longer patterns like Scorpion and Shark because it is more continuous and more angular.

If you are a fan of the Cell line I know you will be very pleased with this ball, it is alot of ball especially for the money. This ball hooks just as much if not more then any $220 bowling balls and its about $40 cheaper. This ball will be a great Christmas and is the most bang for your buck. Good luck and happy striking!

This ball really gets the job done, get down the lane with alot of forward roll.
