another Cruel c51 thread
« on: September 24, 2010, 05:00:35 PM »
I pass through this forum occasionally and thought I might ask the experts on here about this ball.

By the ratings in the BTM magazine this may seem to be a good all around ball, able to handle medium on up pretty well. Is this the case?

This season I am bowling a challenge league that meets every other week, 4 games on a different sport pattern each time and I am looking for something to start with on the medium and longer patterns. This summer , I had a good look with an Attitude shift drilled 4 1/2 x 30 degrees(guesstimate)putting the pin below my ring finger but needed just a little more pop for carry. Would this ball fit this place?

I am considering 2 different drillings to combat these conditions. The first would be to drill it similar to the Attitude shift. The other would be to drill it with similar pin  to pap as the attitude but to move the pin up over the fingers. Lately I have had more success with layouts that put the pin below the fingers as my release gets cleaner and am having a little trouble getting the ball started with slicker midlanes. In the end my question would be; Is this ball stronger than first thought or weaker?

I own an SX1 and have been very happy with it. The hit and carry have been very impressive.

Thanks for any thoughts.
