Rebuilding Arsenal Help
« on: August 04, 2019, 11:05:23 AM »
This year I will only be bowling in one house so the shot will be about the same each week.  I have sold or given away nearly all my equipment except for a Columbia Sideswipe Solid and a plastic spare ball.  Would appreciate some help in finding a ball to fit above and one below the Sideswipe.  Want to stay in the Ebo family.  I'm a senior bowler with slow speed and slightly above average revs.  Thinking about one of the Vibes to go below but don't know which one.  As far a a stronger ball, I have no idea except I don't need a hook monster for sure.  By the way, the GB-3 solid and pearl don't work for me even after several surface changes. 

I would really appreciate some ideas.

Always better talking to a PSO first but Cherry Vibe would be the weakest and longest under Sideswipe.  Generally I would recommend a strong solid (maybe even asym) for high end of arsenal but heard nothing but rave reviews about the Pink Widow.  Its very strong but also long so won't have a problem getting it down the lane.  Just throwing it out there.  Still best talking to a PSO.
Here today.  Gone tomorrow.
