Sport Shots
« on: January 31, 2005, 03:14:17 PM »
What type of balls/drillings would you recommend for sport shots where there isn't much margin for error?  After reading some reviews, the controlled arc of the monster bruiser sounds like it might work for medium sport shots.  Do any of you have some suggestions?

my Slay/R with pin under the bridge and 5x5 worked pretty well; never flips, always control for lighter patterns or whenever you can find dry.

Stronger balls like Nemesis would work, on heavier oils, when the core is tilted a lot as in 45 dgeree and 105+ degree drillings AND pin under the bridge.

I agree, control drills.  You definitely don't want big changes of direction.

You would want sopmething for more midlane drills. i would recommend a inferno, ultimate, or impulse for the heavier stuff. a bruiser would be great for anything under that as long as you dont make it to skid flippy.

I think I am going to go with a Monster Bruiser and a Monster SlayR for now.  I will probably add a Nemesis and something else for oil in the future.  Thanks for the advice.

P.S. Is the Monster SlayR pink or red?  I have never seen one before.  It says red, but the pictures of it look sort of pink.  How does yours look compared to the pictures online or in the Big B catalog?
