Evil Seige ball review

Had this ball layed out exactly the same as the solid, pin above, left of bridge.

The Evil Seige is a pearl version of the much loved black soild. I purposely had the Evil drilled as close to my soild as possible, to try and create the truest comparison.
The Evil, as you would expect gets through the heads cleaner than the solid but still rolls up fairly quickly for a pearl. I still manage to get a good 3-4 inches of flare and this stops any jerkiness on the back-end. I've used the Evil on long, short and house and it looked at home on all 3, not the layout I would recommend for the short, pin below would be better suited, but for all house patterns the Evil will be fantastic. Personally I like the shape on the long too but it would require a decent amount of hand, or used in conjunction with the solid towards the mid to latter stages of a block.
In short if you like the solid and want a similar reaction with more back-end and later read at the front, the Evil Seige is the one for you ( 793 and 780 in one week in league can't lie )

C-System 3.5 ball review

Had this layed out pin above ring finger, approx. 6" from pap.

The 3.5 is another great addition to the Brunswick line, I purposely had it layed out to go longer than most of my other balls due it's aggressive characteristics. Pretty good job too, it's a bit of a monster ( not to be confused with a previous range! ) The 3.5 just wants to hook, then hook a bit more then finally hook again, if you need something for heavier volumes and distances of oil this is the baby! I've used it on long and short, 3 different house shots and you can rely on the thing wanting to make the move off the spot, crankers can come in and the lane is your oyster! The power-strokers and straighter players will also love the 3.5's overall hook.
Carry will not be a concern for those that bowl in the right direction!
Only one downside to the 3.5 it's probably too strong to throw straight at spares!
Purchase and enjoy people....
