    Ball drilled pin on my PAP, CG 3" over, Mass Bias in palm. (all in line across. Drilled to keep hook down with strong finish) Played down five all night long! 278 -300 -265 = 843!!! You have got to add this ball to your lineup. Light, medium, or heavy---this ball does not care how much oil or where it is. It will find its way back to the pocket!! This is my 2nd 300 and first 800(Yahoo!!!) Too bad I waited til the end of the year to buy it. Thanks again to Joe Falco for convincing me AMF is a real player once again!!

    This is by far the most hook I've seen and I've seen 'em all. We drilled my second one 3 3/8 by 5 with 3/4oz side weight and had to remove 3/4oz after 3 frames! This ball flared at least 8 inches with this drill and would end over the thumb hole!! After removing the side, I could not get the ball out far enough and was actually playing 3rd /4th board on the right out to around 10th board left and just crushing the pocket throwing through the slick stuff. If it went gutter to gutter, it would fly by brooklyn.(house shot) I even played around and cranked one up hard and went gutter to gutter to 10 pin!! (NO KIDDING!!) Try that with those "sweet-smelling" balls. This ball is total hook without the rollout - Unbelievable!! You can pick this up on Ebay for around $20.00 NIB if I dont buy 'em up first!!

    Heres the story, I wanted a ball to play down and in with as most of my stuff is too aggressive for the drier outside. We came up with the idea of drilling a ball with the pin on my pap to basically eliminate the "core power" . Naturally, I didn't want to spend $$$ on a high end ball to try a wierd drilling. I picked this ball up on Ebay, Brand New, for $16.39 and punched it out. Even with this drilling, the ball still turns the corner early and HARD. The hit and carry is amazing and I'm now proud to say I carry an AMF product. Its also nice to see a ball that's not all funky-colored going down the lane. I may pick up another and drill it leverage to see what the ball can do. Thanks to Joe Falco for steering me AMF's way. He's right, they do hit hard!! By the way, this is the remake of the Fusion Hook Monster

    i RECIEVED THE BALL SANDED AND THREW IT THAT WAY FOR A FEW GAMES. iT BITES HARD IN OIL AND GETS A GOOD STRONG ROLL. I HAD IT DRILLED 3-3/8" STACKED AND HAS 15/16 OZ. SIDE WEIGHT. 0 ON THE THUMB AND EVEN ON THE FINGERS. THE BALL HITS HARD BUT DRIVES BY THE 8 AND OCCASIONALLY THE 9 ON HIGH FLUSH SHOTS. HAVE SHOT 288 WITH THIS ONE IN 9 GAMES AND IT IS A GOOD BALL WHEN THE CONDITION ALLOWS. i WOULD NOT TRY TO USE IT ON BURNED LANES AS IT WILL ROLL OUT WITH THE LAYOU i SELECTED. i HAVE USED IT ON WOOD AND SYNTHETIC AND i FEEL IT HANDLES SYTHETIC BETTER AS IT SMOOTHS THE TRANSITION FROM SKID TO HOOK.

    I haven't thrown this ball a lot yet. Took this ball out today to try and work on part of my game I don't do much and that is bellying it out over third arrow out to to the first arrow and letting it come back. Usually I am more of a second to first bowler. Anyways, tried out a couple of different balls. First the Classic Rock, by Columbia which had a skid/snap type of reaction, and then this, a new Victory, I bought off the internet cheap. The Victory had a nice smooth arc to the pocket and had much more room on the outside to play with. I could get the victory out to the five board and have it move nicely to the pocket, where the Classic Rock could only get to the 9 board or it would overreact. Great carry and very forgiving. The time or two when I pulled it left, it didn't just take off on a left turn and carried a few brooklyns. Like I said earlier, a nice smooth controllable arc. A few weeks ago, I tried it on burnt out alleys, and couldn't get it to push through

    I like the way this ball reacted especially on heavy oil. The ball hits hard and really gives very good pin reaction. It has helped me increase my average by at least ten pins. With this ball I had my first six hundred series (214-221-205). Even if there is carrydown, the ball still reacts the same way. The only setback is that it hates dry and sticky lanes. I had to make major adjustments but still it will pass beyond the brooklyn side. But still the name speaks for itself, it will indeed give you Victory if used in the right lane conditions.

    This is a 15 lb.4oz before drill. 3 oz. top weight and 2-3 inch pin. Wanted to play inside with this on a med to heavy oil pattern so drilled it with the pin to the right and under the ring finger. I have a weight hole just about on my positive axis point and the reaction of this ball was unreal. It doesnt lope but just glides thru the heads and the way my pro shop guy set this up was to get it to rev up late in the midlanes, This gives it a skid flip type reaction but it doesnt get over/under like skid flip balls get. This ball makes a hard arcing move and doesnt stop or burn up. Remember you need head oil to get this pup to glide thru and proper hand position also. I started up the back of the ball but to powerful for the angle. I put my hand on the side of the ball to retain some energy. I could tell you how many wonderful scores ive shot with this but its more important that you know what the ball reaction was instead of scores. This ball will hold up longer than other high perfor
