    Overall...this ball has won me just about all of my tournaments in the city and state level. It hooks, it hits, it plows the pins down. If your ever bowling a singles league or tournament, this is the ball to use because not only does it allow you to play a line that no one else can get close to being able to play, but it also sucks the oil up like a sponge so it pretty much destroys everyone elses line. Deffinitely a good buy. This was my first morich ball and i just recently got a morich N'SANE LevRG which is also an incredible ball and im not sure if i will ever buy a BRAND NEW ball that isn't a morich ball again.

    This ball is just crazy. Out of the box I would have though there was something wrong with the oil pattern unless the pro shop guy had told me before what to expect. I have so far never averaged below 230 the times I have used it but because of the amount of hook I have now sanded the ball to 800 grit to get it a little more usable (there was almost never enough oil before). With 800 it does get a little more controlable but not much. I can probably try 1000 or higher and still get a really strong reaction but for now I'll keep it at 800 for those rare days when an oil tanker crashes on the lanes. A great ball for oil but on most conditions mainly 16 pounds of extra weight to carry around in the bag.

    This ball likes the right side a lot (I'm right handed). Give it plenty of room and it comes back hard. I like the fact that it splashes at the 7 pin on light hits. When oil starts to break down, I notice the angle of entry changing and the 10 pin standing. The 6 wraps around the 10 without hitting it. It gives a return bowler, like me, a signal when it is time to change because of less oil on the lanes. Clean it every night after use, and it comes out of your bag ready to go. Update: Had to put this ball away because the oil conditions were not right. It sits in my bag waiting for my practice shots that tell me to take it out. Hasn't happened in 2 weeks. Can't wait to use it again, but have to wait for the right conditions. I am not that confident to use it in medium conditions. I have to pick up speed to throw it and I don't want to do that. Update: Ball started to weaken after about 75 games. Took it is and had it resurfaced. My guy took it down to 230 grit, which

    when morich said you can see and hear the difference he wasnt lying. mo has done it again. if you want a ball that hooks out of the house look no further. this ball will read the midlane and give you a strong predictable arc. when this ball gets there it hits like a ton of bricks. this ball hits so hard it spoiled two 300 games with stone 9's. on average sport shots this ball is just a little too strong. but on the heavy stuff pull this one out. no matter how deep you go this ball will always hit. unless u bowl on pretty heavy oil or u have very high ball speed dont waste ur money. morich has other great balls that will work just fine. but if u need something for the floods this is definately the ball.

    What i Like about thsis ball it that it reads the midlane great, I use it on PBA conditions the shark is the best to use it on and regional pattern 3 and 5. This ball gives you about 5 board area on a pba shot and about 10-12on a house shot. I really like to use this ball on synthetic lanes it this ball is used on wood lanes it only works about for 1 game but when you shoot 250+ with it, it gives you a frame or 2 to switch balls, i would say use a ravage, or a One, or a pollished v-2 power after this ball.

    Another great ball from Morich. With a heavy oil ball gets great lenght and won't take a left turn untill friction is found. having ball compounded helps with this and keeps ball from rolling out to soon. All the energy is directed at the pins. Is a much better ball than I thought, was afraid at a first ball would be too agressive and would over hook even with oil; causing it to roll out. Ball was drilled with a forward roll, pin above to right ring finger and Mass Bias out to right of thumb. In all a great ball that has hitting power unlike anthing I've had to date. Not into particals (S&D) but can't wait to see whats next to complement the TSA.

    I learned that Morich balls are tricky to drill. make sure your Pro Shop knows your track measurements from axis. The guy who drills my equipment did a great job (Thanks Matt at Greenacre Bowl). I thought that this ball would be good for nothing but oil. I was wrong. It shined in medium conditions as well. Even used it for a couple of 10 pin spares. I love this ball. Very predictable. The bonus was that the cover did not soak up oil and die. I am hopeful that this baby will last more than one month as i experienced with my Ultimate Inferno. I was concerned because the ball is made by Burnswick. I was advised that the C4 enhanced cover stock was not going to "spong up" oil. So far so good. If you want more hook in med to heavy oil.........this is the ONE! 1/15/06 revision I have not used this ball for sometime now. I have found it is not reacting as well as it did when I first got it. I will be putting it through some games in the next two weeks to see whether it is

    this thing turns i have a high ball speed and it still crossed over my teammates couldnt get it downlane at first cover is very soft and after three games ball was filthy it has a 6 inch plus flare hits like a truck the layout is for max flare with snap on back end and it does if you miss your mark inside forget it lucky if i got more than the 7 pin but when its on mark it is great rolls very early revs up nice dosent run out of energy if you have a higher ball speed<scrip

    i got this ball drilled to "hook early" well...i've had to throw it OVER 20mph, right on the 1st arrow to even have a prayer of keeping it on right side of the lane, and even then, there's a good possibility for it going jersey, or brooklyn, which ever you prefer, so, if you need a ball that will go across the lane like the drivers do on the LA super-highways, then by all means, get this ball. if you don't may i suggest, the regular Shock & Awe...ball hits just as well, but doesn't hook as hard

    This ball offers an incredible reaction on fresh oil, and blends the lane pattern pretty well, if the lanes are medium oil or less, put this one in the bag, as it hooks way too much for that. Out of the box this ball hooked too much for any shot for me, but after I took some of the surface off, and polished it, I found this ball to have a great reaction. Mo laid this ball out for me, and I am glad that he did as the layout was perfect for the Mini-Eliminator shot, it's just too bad the guy throwing the ball couldn't do more with it.
