Looking for a ball to play the lane straighter with.
« on: October 05, 2006, 12:27:12 PM »
One of the houses I bowl in has put down a more diffacult shot this year. The shot plays flat, has an out of bounds, acts more like a wet/dry, and if I had to guess, I would say it is about 35 ft or so. I would like find a ball/layout that is VERY smooth, can handle a bit of oil (medium/medium light with sometimes carrydown) but, dosent hook a ton of boards so, I can square up a bit more. I currently have to play the lane deep but, keep it out of the OOB and I get alot of over/under. I have used a teamates Ebonite Puma drilled label (might be oil logged???) and it works well but, I would like some other suggestions.

Yes, I have one and and I agree. The only problem, I am looking to play the pattern straighter. The Absolute has 2 tons of hook for me.

a low load particle ball may be just what you need----this will tone down some of that over/under and have more control.


I was kicking around the idea of a roto venus. Low diff, particle, on paper it sounds good.
