SHOT HELP NEEDED B4 6
« on: September 25, 2007, 01:36:56 AM »
What do you shoot when you don't have clean backends and that means you cant always judge when the ball is going to break.  The middle of the lane is flooded and if you undershoot it goes brook.  Outside is alittle dry on 5 and you cant just throw up 15 - 13 because your ball doesn't turn always...

Sanded the ball down to 600 and with light polish to get pass the heads just in case they start breaking down..

I have a Pearl Black Widow but its unpredictable in this house...

We have a combination synthetic boards - Front different than back - That suck

Without knowing the specifics of your delivery, my best guess would be to use a light surface (2000 abralon no polish), and stay up the back of the ball, to get it in an early and predictable roll.

get a particle ball therefore in the backend you will have the same reaction.  Using a pearl ball like the Black widow Pearl is not a good ball for this because if the ball finds oil in the backend it will squirt and not finish, which sounds like the problem that you are having.

4 GOT 1 MAJOR DETAIL - I AM A CRANKER AND YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS AND MY BALL SPEED STAYS AROUND 16 TO 17. IT CAN BE HIGHER BUT I HAVE TO BE IN THE ZONE OR PISSED AT SOME PEOPLE

Pearl particle or solid reactive, medium surface.  If you're rev-dominant, maybe a little less surface.

Sounds like the perfect pattern for my Black Widow solid at OOB surface or maybe 2000 if I need it start up a little earlier.

That sounds great but I dont have a sold right...  Was thinking about getting a middle lane ball and see if that would work but right now I am alittle tight..  Was just really looking for what you think I should be shooting @ on the lane..

I would keep my line as tight as I comfortably could until the lane forced me to change otherwise.

For instance, my normal carry-down swamp shot is standing 19, and targeting 11 at the arrows.  I'll stay here until the lane absolutely forces me to move, or forces me to increase my speed from 14mph to something else.
