WEAK ROCK STAR
« on: August 27, 2003, 01:55:22 AM »
I have my rock star drilled to go longer on the lane and use it as a second ball for mid oil lanes, but somebody put a doubt on my mind saying me that my ball is the less agresive ball he has ever seen, so I need driller's advice please.
My 14lbs ball is drilled with the pin placed slightly to the left of my middle finger, in fact the pin have been half bitten by the hole of that finger. I am right handed.
any opinion will help. Thank you.

I would say that if the ball works for what you want it to do, disregard what anyone says about your release. You do not have to have a strong release in order to score.

Thanks for your response. Actually it's not my release the weak thing. when I first have my ball drilled, I was always wondering WHY? it has so poor carry, because I set it on the pocket most of the time and leave most of the back pins or even the king. I play with a ROCK ON (columbia) too but I use it for heavy oil lanes because it's sanded also I recently bought and have drilled a WILD ball(columbia) to use in dry lanes. This two balls have better carry than my ROCK STAR. It wasn't my intention to have a weak ball, it was just drilled that way I don't know why!. I know we can get a strike even with our plastic spare ball but.....why don't use the technology of modern bowling  balls to hepl ourself with the game?
