I have never thrown Urethane before, never really needed it, but the fact that the Purple Tank was given to me to try out, its staying in the Tournament bag!
This ball makes the lanes almost too controllable. Throwing 5 board, in my "Inner Norm Duke" style, this ball has one of the smoothest arches ever. Keeping my ball speed at 16-17mph at about 400 revs. Keeping my hand behind the ball, the reaction it has is perfect!
Definitely Not a League ball, unless you are a Sport shot bowler. But is perfect for those tough tournament patterns!

This is the most versatile ball in your bag.. heavy oil.. dry oil.... doesn't matter!! No spare ball no problem.. NOW you have one of those also!! This ball I had drilled weaker for high friction lanes and it is amazing!! Play the outside line on heavy and stack them up!!! Pick the corners with ease! Start a step ladder with it or use when they breakdown! It doesn't matter! So glad I have it and the blue pearl tank WILL also make my bag also!! Happy bowling!

The only reason I gave it a 3 star is because this is the most aggressive 1000 grit sanded ball I've ever seen. It looks more like 500 and rolls accordingly. I bowl on older well used wood lanes and the outsides are bone dry. These particular lanes are hand oiled by myself as I am the lane man here so I can control the shot but it's not easy.
39 ft oiled 10 board to 10 board. The Purple Tank is a good ball and once the surface is tweaked I'm sure it'll be more playable in our center. Looking forward to more Tanks!

I know they say urethane is not for dry lanes, but this ball has bailed me out so many times when that is the case! I never liked urethane in the past because I found it to be inconsistent, but this one proved me wrong. So smooth and controllable, but has enough kick down lane to carry everything. This one hooks more than any urethane ball I have ever thrown. It’s like magic! Every ball in the Tank line has been amazing for me and this one is definitely no different. This one is going to stay in my bag for a long time and I will probably have to get another.

I’ve never thrown Urethane and didn’t plan to until I heard about the Purple Tank. I needed a lighter oil ball for when the lanes dry up, and this baby is money. But, it’s also so versatile. I can use it early for when I want to play straighter, I can get it to hook later in games and throw many lines, and it’s my spare ball!
Definitely recommend it for everyone’s bag!
