Advice needed - VG v.s Ultimate inferno
« on: April 16, 2009, 11:59:01 PM »
I have both of these coming NIB so I dont know ball specs yet.
I need one as a bench mark ball/versatile and one for heavier oil.
I have a high rev rate 17.5 mph ball speed. I have been out of bowling for 2 years and just started back, the last league I bowled I averaged 231 fall league, and 240 for the summer with a Original inferno drilled rico pin 1" above midline. I was thinking of drilling the UI rico to try and bring back the look I had with the OI and this leaves me with the question what to do with the  Virtual Gravity. The last storm ball I had was a vertigo drilled pin under middle mb on right side of thumb and rolled really well but would ping corners all day on carry down. So how should I drill these 2 balls to compliment each other.

Drill the UI 3x3 stacked or something along there. Will give you a very nice control and benchmark piece. Drill the VG pin high 5x3 or so...this will still be bigger than the UI but help the VG with backend reaction. From what I have seen of the Virtual it is a great piece but can sometimes be a little weak on the backend when you move too far left. JMO.

You averaged 230, I hope you know how to bowl. Drill the balls how you want and go to work! UI should be more rolly while the VG should give you more on the back 2/3's of the lane.

Have fun striking!

Well the ultimate inferno arrived with a 3"-4" pin. Any more thoughts?
