I would say Sahara with a control drill, and a Ravage with a medium drill on it.  Those 3 should cover all the conditions you will see.

I'd also suggest a Sahara with a mild drilling (pin above or below bridge), and either a Shock & Awe or a Ravage. I'd drill either one for length and good backend , since both offer innate backend power and just need to get far enough down the lane to snap to the pocket. Pin above ring finger and MB nect to thumb would be my suggestion.

But, nevertheless, since these are strong asymmetrical ball I'd always talk to your driller first (who should know your game well) to prevent ugly results when the drilling does not match your style. Would be a pity on these great balls.

Ok....this might get complicated....but...

Pete....

you're asking for a 3 ball arsenal in the title of your post but you ask about other balls and layouts in the text.

Can you be more specific on your SD layout?  Does your driller know Morich stuff and your game ?  VERY IMPORTANT.

You say your SD is "shape break" ...I'm assuming you mean "sharp break" ....but please be specific and we'll be able to help you more.

The funny thing about Morich is this.....you can have ANY OTHER 2 balls in Morich's lineup to complement what you need !! ANY OF THEM.....and YES...you could get 2 more SD's drilled and prepped differently and they would work !

Dizzy, I'm glad you clarified what you were suggesting because you can't just say

Emailed Morich.Fred.n request form answered questions .4 11/16 M/F.4 7/8 R/F..arclength 5.InitAxis3 speed 1 oil 1 blend 1 carrydown 1 flare 4.Have S/D coming.Reply 3 3/8 pin to pap.M/B4 3/4.Pin height above M/L 2" I'm a stroker /tweener.righty.New lanes 2months old synthetics.with that reply I was thinking what other balls would make a three ball arsenal.S/D playing through the arrows anything left of the 15.something for left of 8 to the 15.and something when they are light to dry.to me a stroker is one who goes up the back of the ball  with little side roll a pointer or down and in.tweener is one who has some side roll closer to 45 degree who plays down and in and plays a small swing shots.and a cranker is one who has 90 degree side release.my game is about repeating shots ,having a good release to allow the ball to cycle through it's dynamics.and heavy roll though the pin deck.I try to hit the pocket with this in mind.I see vidoes of people showing how the throw or roll a perticular ball.and call themselves tweeners when they look like crankers to me.I saw one video where the guy played three different shots on a lane from outside down and in to middle  swing to deep 30 and out  with the same release and call them stroker,tweener,cranker.I'm wrong?? Thanks 4 the Help..Pocketpete
