I drilled two Forge Fireballs because I wanted to see the reaction I’d get down lawn with my traditional 60x5.75x30 and to see how a shorter pin to pap would react(drilled 60x3.75x30).
The Forge Fire is a strong symmetrical piece and with my shorter pin to pap layout it works really well on a fresh house shot. When the heads burn up and the ball sees friction early I can stay in the same zone and use my longer pin to pap layout. I noticed that the short pin to pap layout flared a lot more and would burn its energy really early if I wasn’t playing deep enough in the oil therefore causing some carry/defection concerns. The longer pin to pap layout gave me room to play right longer and I noticed greater continuation and a higher carry percentage when the lanes broke down.
The Forge Fire is cleaner and a faster response ball compared to the Forge. When the Forge responds too quickly to friction you can move to the Fire and get the down lane reaction and the extra push through the fronts. I like the angularity and versatility this ball provides and it can be used on a variety of patterns.

Threw my first games with this ball last night, and as much as I like the original Forge, the Forge Fire may become my new go-to ball. Compared to the original Forge, the Fire has a little more length, does not seem as "grabby", is more angular and has much more back end and more continuation. The Forge Fire could very well end up being my favorite Motiv ball yet. Both balls are drilled pin 2.75" right of center line and centered on fingers with CG stacked.
