3 ball arsenal
« on: February 18, 2015, 02:01:58 PM »
If I were to build a 3 ball arsenal what would be recommended.   From a heavy oil ball to a light oil ball.  I already have a ascent that works great for dry.

Gotta include the shock!  Maybe something pearl beneath it, and something solid above it?

my favorite for a 3 ball is jackal, rage, shock and since you got the apex already it seems set to me.

You can't go wrong with Joker-1's suggestion. If you are including the Ascent in your three ball limit, then maybe the Jackal and Forza or Sting. If you are rev dominant, then perhaps skip the Jackal and go with the Vengeance or Primal as your heavy oil choice, the Shock, and your Ascent.

Motiv basically covers everything for all styles.

The house I bowl at is on the dry side, so my 3 ball has been Primal Rage, Sigma Sting and Ascent Apex.   Although in most cases lately the Sting and Apex get the most play.    Would like to try the Jackal, but I don't see enough oil.

I have yet to have much luck with anything asymmetrical. I don't know if it's my more up the back release, low revs, or higher speed. But I just haven't found one that I can get to turn the corner very well, nor am I interested in spending more money to try one when a symmetrical cored ball seems to work just fine.

So if I went with #2 Vengeance and #3 shock. What would you suggest for a heavy oil ball, a Vengeance or Rage with a strong drilling and a lot of surface?

As a slower ball speed, low rev guy, I'm looking to have a three ball arsenal that really fits my game. I currently have a Primal Rage that works well for me on heavier patterns. On the lighter side I have a Tribal. Does the Revolt Vengeance fit comfortably in the middle of those? I too, have found little success with asymmetrical stuff. I also find I don't have enough ball speed to get solid stuff to work well for me, so I always look for pearl balls that cover most conditions I normally see.
