Strike zone,
nice priced, with correct drill and surface will handle oil,
hit is with the best of them, had 28/36 strikes for 750 and that was with (2)
7-10 pocket splits first game, my buddy (who was on a Storm sponsored team (all that they could throw was a Storm product)), drilled a Strike zone with the first 21 strikes for 835 on the Sunday morning league.

I would definately say the Strike Zone or the Vapor Zone.  With the zone line, they are asymetric, which means you have more drilling options with the position of the PSA.  I have a Strike Zone drilled for a med-med/heavy condition, & could'nt be happier with it.  For leagues, I don't even carry my Ultimate Inferno any more cause the Strike Zone will handle all I encounter.  Very rarely have I run accross one of my Zone balls that the ball has burned up, I would recommend any of them.  Another question is, are you looking for a pearlized reactive or a solid reactive?

I Absolutely LOVE my Ultimate Inferno, but Ultimately I LOVE my Absolute Inferno!

Bowling is more fun when you only have to throw 1 ball..........F*#k the 10 pin!!

I havent bowled pretty much since college and got a job at a local center.  A pro shop owner recommened the Vector V2 and I must say I love this rock.

Subbed with it straight out of the box and got fast in the 11th for 288.  Missed a 4 ten pin taps b/c I need a spare ball and finished with 706.

My shot tonight was also unimpeded by others playing 8 out to 5 (all down the middle)...very similar to .. well I dont know...a lefty might see....I moved less than a board on the approach all night...

Getcha a V2 dude..you wont regret it.
