Track Equation. With this ball there is no question where you read oil and where you read dry. Tells me everything I need to know about the lane.

definately my Throttle/R.  I start with that ball and considering what it does, I can make a change from there.

On a house shot, I still like my Nighthawk M2.  I know exactly what it is capable of and how it reacts when it finds the dry.  In a more unknown situation, I'd say my Tour Power - Medium everything.  Havoc would probably be a good choice also.

Whirlwind - It gives me a nice look with some mid-lane read and doesn't jump hard on the backend when it hits the dry.  Very smooth ball.

My bench mark ball is a .....Storm Flash Force......... with the pin under the fingers.  It provides great conditioner lane read, and is a strong strike ball for its condition.  I liked the ball so much I had a second drilled with the pin over the fingers for late lane break down.  The core cover stock combination work great for its niche performance parameter.
Hope this helps -
