1) Can i check what is the difference with resurgence and black widow pearl. i saw it selling in kallang too. Just wanna know what is the difference as you had mention that spinners are having resurgence and why not other ball? i was intro to get the pearl by the pro shop at kallang, i did mention tornado to him as what TotalNV suggest but i was told to get black widow pearl instead as he mention both the price diff is only 20 dollars.

2) I was bowling today and realise that sometime just before the ball hit the pins, it will no longer spin in horizontal way but slightly more of a 45degree. Is it normal or does it imply that there is not enough revolution or nid to push more with thumb?
Diff between Tornado and Black Widow Pearl only $20!!!Either Tornado damn EX or the BW damn CHEAP.

it's normal for the ball to tilt to about 45-degrees before hitting the pins... that is also when the ball will back-up a little. the same happened to my ball when i was a spinner. some spinners will not have such reaction perhaps due to the speed of the ball (no time to react).

the theory is generally similar to hook bowling (skid and then snap). the tilting part will be the 'snap' part.

do correct me if i'm wrong, but this is as far as i know.

ok thks guys. Is it normal for the thumb hole to be loose till the point when i am holding the ball there is still some space left? Will it affect any part of the release?

Today saw another spinner using resurgence, cant really understand why? Told that it will travel in a striaght path without much hook, really cant understand it. Come to think again of what had some of u guys mention about paying so much for just a coverstock, does it really worth it. I think i shall go for the black widow pearl instead as i am still new
