Raging Bull TSE

Raging Bull TSE & Desperado TSE Vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92MiGmkPD7s My layout 65°x3 1/4"x25° Two more great, smooth rolling pieces from Seismic. For a guy like me that wants a ball to be smooth and not so dramatic on the backend, I am excited. Excited is an understatement! These two matched up with the Euphoric are exceptionally well thought out pieces by Ryan and the guys at Seismic. I can see these working extremely well on medium and short sport patterns, especially later in the block when the heads are gone and backends flying. The Desperado TSE and the Insignia Core, with it's higher Rg, lower Diff, and lower MB Diff than other balls in the line, turns this ball into a piece that is really clean through the front part of the lane. Smooth & predictable in the midlane and still a hard enough drive through the pocket. The Raging Bull TSE still has that Horn Core roll that I love, smooth yet strong midlane, with a heavy roll to the pocket. It gives you that little bit extra in the mids and backend than the Desperado TSE.

Drilled 65#4.25#70 oob surface. Solid reactive that gets through the front of the lane even when the pattern begins to break down is nice for a change, ball revs up quickly at the end of the pattern and hooks all the way off the back of the pin deck. Love the new cover stock seismic is sporting here, it has a different look on the lane than the other solids they offer. Compared to the stampede same layout, the TSE is longer and more angular off the spot, TSE offers more continuation through the pins than the Stampede. I would say the Stampede is a good 3-4 boards stronger when both balls are thrown with oob surface. TSE fits perfectly between the Long Horn and Stampede you can switch seamlessly between the three. Using it on the Carmen Salvino Pattern I was able to start with it playing 13 out to 8 at 45 feet, was able to move in as the pattern broke down, the continuation never fell off as I moved in. Great ball here if you are a tournament player looking for a ball to start with on a wide variety of patterns this would be it.
