    For the price I paid this was the best value I ever found. The only adjustment was a green scoth brite pad to the coverstock. This is done to clear the pores and for consistency. I'm basically a down and in player and wanted to open the lanes up. This ball really isn't speed sensitive, compared to the Action Pack. Carry down, heavy oil, no problem with this ball. It has paid for itself, 10 times over, for the money that I won. This is the first ball out of the bag and no matter how many games I bowl, it hold it's own, without issues. If and when I need to move, it would be one-two boards.

    This ball is amazing!! Out of the box I bowled a 600 series which doesnt come often for me lol. The hook is unbelievable in oily conditions. Adjusting during bowling is a figment of my imagination now. When I first purchased the ball I bowled from monday to wed with a total of 55 games and I have to say this ball kept me at a 201 average. The ball is very forgiving. The price is very good for the ball since it is a very affordable mid performance ball. Cleaning is a sinch. I tried the hot bath technique like with the EPX T1 and it restored my ball to brand new. A little discoloration but back to its normal dull look. When I removed the ball from the water and dried it off, it became abnormally tacky, but let me tell you what.....the ball is now better than when I bought it. Even when the lanes break down I just move in and the ball takes care of the rest. I even use it as my spare ball...especially for those pesky 10 pins.
