Can anyone give me some suggestions on a ball I can use on
dry lanes? (Or a certain drill pattern, or both ball and drill pattern) The house shot I bowl on is on short oil, and wood
lanes. The shot usually dries up after the first game, I
have a hard time getting the ball to the 1-3 pocket. I am
somewhat a high rev player, who does not generate a lot of ball speed
somewher around 14.5 to 15 mph.

any suggestions would be appriciated.

I'll give you the same advice that is working for me on dry lanes. First, take a medium oil ball (I chose and Original Inferno), put the pin 1" up from grip center and about 6" away from the PAP, the ball gets into the roll early enough with the pin low but doesn't move very much at all. I have my Original Inferno sanded actually and I play very close to the pocket, ball revs up to have enough energy at the pin deck and since the pin is so far away, the ball doesn't turn the corner that much.

Slate Blue Gargoyle from Visionary is a very solid product. You get a high-tech core inside a highly polished urethane shell. The ball gives me a smooth, even, predictable arc to the pocket with no jumpiness whatsoever. It's also a great-looking ball, too, if that kind of thing matters to you. And while I'm primarily a Storm guy, I'm not so fanatical about it that I'm above saying the few Visionary products I've used over the years are all high-quality, long-lasting stuff.
