  hi. i'm currently looking for a light weight reactive ball, semi finger tip grip. weight around 11lbs or light 12.
  
  due to my injury, i need this light weight ones quite bad.

  Dun think u can get one from here...you may wanna try asking any pro shops for a 2nd hand ball, one of my friends got hls from them. But it'll not be easy, as most hook bowlers use 13lbs and above...

  Jae's right. You're not going to find balls of that weight here. Good luck to you.

  actually 13pounds is ok. as long as exact 13 or lighter side or 13 is fine. cos i need a semi grip, so at least still can hold on the ball. if full fingertip for a 13lbs, no hope for that.
  any one have lobang?

  Ah? Now I see.
  
  Apex Intensity. No no, easily the worst of the Apex line. I'm not saying it's a very bad ball, considering that the other Apexes are hard to match, since they're excellent. It's just that... .... there's a reason why your friend is selling the ball.
  
  First up, I don't have one. Perhaps this puts a damper on my eligibility to comment but... WAHAHAHAH WHO DARES DOUBT ME ON EBONITE?!??!?!?!
  
  Anyway, back to my point. I've only used the original Blue/Red Apex and am currently having a Adrenaline. From what I've seen and heard from a friend in Changi who bought the Intensity, it's not really that's good. It's yellow for one, and I don't like yellow.
  
  It seems touchy. Lots depends on your release. If you're inconsistent like me, better stay away, get the other Apex instead. Lotsa over/under for a ball that's particle. And I'm not convinced the hitting power's right up there with the rest of the particles. I only enjoy seeing it rev up at the breakpoint, that I admit it outclasses it original apex. Control wise... urm.... I'll pass thanks.
  
  But, that's just my opinion.

  thanks prataman. then do you think should i get the ball or not?? cos some says it provide good hook but some says its not that good.????
  
  this ball is more to power than control is it??
  
  then wat other ball you can recommend me for high hook potential?
  cos i'm playing at extremely oily lanes.
  
  anyone who have similar balls letting go??? i need this urgently.
  
  thanks.
