Can you provide details on your tilt, speed, revs, rotation, what you throw in the other games, etc?

Todd its Billy from City, seeing good things from the roto grip winner

If u need weaker 900 global after dark solid (which comes polished)

With your speed either will do the trick on wood.

I have been very happy with After Dark solid.  Used it on the most hooking house shot I have seen kast week.  This one gave me way better hit at 15 board than I have seen from any other dry lane ball

I know it sounds odd coming from me, but I'll agree with the After Dark Solid.

I have an After Dark solid and would recommend it for later blocks and shorter patterns. Lots of control and will offer a bit of pop from forced to open the lane up. My first recommendation would have been for a Desert Ops which by my comparison offers a little more skid and is a touch easier off the dry.

Why the After Dark solid versus the pearl?

The pearl is a bit jumpy compared to the solid.

The pearl is a bit jumpy compared to the solid.

How does the solid compare to the Hustle Ink?  Guessing about 2 or 3 boards weaker over all and a bit longer.

Hustle ink, had one of those too, fantastic ball. Made the switch to 16lb from 15lb and just wanted to roll some different stuff... The ink is earlier and stronger throughout the lane. Don't let that hp1 marketing fool you .

I know Todd's game well. Tall dude, much speed, speed dominant verus revs.  generated effortlessly due to height/pendulum swing. He's up the boards.. After dark solid is the same prep as a hustle ink, and loco solid. Should be a home run if u need a weaker reaction.

 Imagine visually it's like WRW JR "speed and lane play" but duke roll....in my opinion.
