Need a ball that is clean thru front & mids but can handle a hang spot downlane
« on: September 13, 2017, 11:08:11 AM »
I am a righty (higher speed and higher revs) and I need pearl / hybrid that is clean thru front & mids but strong on the back and able to handle (overcome) a hang spot downlane.  Any suggestions?

Pearl/hybrids are fine but you'll need some surface if you do have a hang spot/carry down IMO.

Prefer slight surface to over come dirty back ends.  Radical Ridiculous Asymm's are on sale closed out now by many dealers.  One ball I looked at before a health issue (shoulder) that I have.

I did try that some but that resulted in the fronts grabbing the ball too early then.

Your ball is telling you you're in the wrong part of the lane as it over/under hooks.  MOVE THEM FEETS!

Hyroad with the shine knocked off would do the trick

Neat sanding trick. Take a fresh 2000 grit abralon pad, and sand it with the grit lines parallel to the track. Will probably allow you to move left, and when the ball flares, the grit will help it get thru the hang.

(I'm not even being sarcastic)

I like the suggestion of squaring up and playing as long pattern.
I don't have a rolly pearl.  I have an undrilled pin up BWGold and a drilled pin down pearl Shout, the latter of which seems too weak.  I do have a RICO Hyroad I could try (once I get the thumb fit adjusted). Another option would be to take my pin down original GameBreaker or Optimus Solid down to 4K.  Thoughts?
