Redline results (first 299 game)
« on: September 04, 2015, 12:51:50 PM »
My first week of Fall leagues are now complete.  I bowled Monday and Thursday in the same house and threw the Redline exclusively.  I had a few practice outings with it and discovered a few things about it.  It gets dirty really quick.  This may be a good thing because there is no way I'm forgetting to clean it at the end of the night.  It hooks way more than I expected.  My layout is a demo day special, pin above the bridge and cg in the center of the palm.  I ended up hitting the ball with a worn 4000 pad and some clean and dull to get all the dirt off of it and decided to not put polish back on it.  This seems to be a good surface for me as I like the ball better like this than with the polish.  The shot at the house I'm bowling at is a little different this year.  The outsides are drier than normal, anything outside of about 8 just kicks hard left immediately.  To combat this I moved deeper inside from the get go to avoid missing a little right and having the ball go straight left.  The strength of the Redline worked well for this as it had plenty of pop in the back-end to go through the pins correctly.  I ended up shooting 663 on Monday night and 792 with 299 the last game on Thursday night.  So far I'm liking my switch to Motiv!

Sounds like a good matchup. Still love my Sigma Sting and that is my primary THS ball for me, but will probably get a Redline before year is over.

Nice series! I just got mine on Friday and threw it this morning and WOW! it really is another hooking ball by Motive. I have mine drilled 4x4x2 so it is gonna go :) but what I couldnt believe was the more I moved left the more it carried the corners....I am loving this ball. On a side note though, make sure you bring your sunglasses when you roll it ;)
Now throwing pretty much all flavors...
