Straight Flush vs Powergroove Dry vs XXXL Buzzsaw?
« on: October 28, 2006, 12:49:33 AM »
Looking for a dry lane ball and not sure what to go with.  I think the powergroove dry might be the least expensive of the 3, but also the most hooking ball out of them.  That might be a bad thing.  I have a regular power groove and love that ball but it hooks more than it is advertised to do so.

Lanemasters Straight Flush has a 3 piece core which I am not too crazy about.  I am not sure it will have good carry.  More expensive, don't know much about Lanemasters to take a gamble on them.  Very low flare

Lane 1 XXXL Buzzsaw.  Plastic cover unlike the others.  Diamond core so it should hit pretty hard. Not sure on the price.

What should I pick?

My first choice was to drill extremely weak, but then again I know nothing about drilling.  Based on the drilling charts my regular power groove is drilled somewhat strong. I don't know how to describe it in words.

I Looked at brunswick site, my regular groove judging by the placement of the pin looks like drilling 1E.

The 5 1/2" pin w/ cg stacked, which one would that be on their drilling spec sheet?

Sorry to ask was does cg stacked mean?
