Benchmark
« on: December 25, 2010, 02:25:07 AM »
I bowl on a 38 foot THS that plays with lots of over/under.  I'm looking for a benchmark from Motiv to begin building an arsenal.  You guys that throw lots of Motiv equipment make me a recommendation please.

Bowler specs:
Speed and revs in balance
40* Rotation
11* Tilt
I like to play the right side and am not much of a swinger.

Thanks in advance.

Being that you like to play more up the lane I would recommend the GT1 because of its lower differential with my second choice being the SR2. Good-luck

With 11* of tilt I'd look at the SR2 as my first choice.  If you go GT1, don't be afraid of a 4-4.25" pin placement.

GT1 for sure. I wish they'd make a solid version of that ball that rolled identical but could handle a little more oil. I absolutely loved the GT1 but it did get a little over/under for me on carry down conditions.

Justin's first choice was the SR2, because of its weaker cover and his lack of tilt will give more push down lane.

I picked the the GT because it lack of differential meaning it shouldn't overreact in the dry. A taller pin to pap distance like Justin mentioned should get the ball the length.  

Both are great choices and you wont go wrong with either one.
