Your Fall Arsenal?
« on: August 10, 2004, 10:56:07 PM »
Well the new season is almost here and this is what I am starting out with.

Fear Factor (Heavy Oil)
Depth Charge (Med-Heavy)
Hot Rod (Med)
Barb Wire (Med-Dry)
Hit (Dry)
Football (Spare)

I am hoping that Storm comes out with a replacement for the Fear Factor soon as I have not had much success with it. I still think their best heavy oil ball was the Trauma Response. What's everyone else starting out with this year?

I think that's way too many balls.  You'll just confuse the heck out of yourself.

Im going with:
Heavy oil - XXXtreme
All other - Razor Wire
Spare - Storm Spare

Phenom Unleashed for fresh oil
Triple Threat for medium oil
Dry Heat for light oil
Plastic for that stinkin' 10 pin
Many other balls to tinker with if none of these work!

Oh yea, I hope to be adding a Rule to the bag too.

I am downsizing this year and keeping it as simple as possible.


Animal Untamed- Med/Hvy
V2 Sweet- Med
Red/Teal Power Groove- Light
Optyx Dragon- Spare


Depending if needed I may pull out a Super Freak if its really heavy.

I don't know why I don't see very many of the best oil balls on the market atop these arsenal lists.  Here's mine (projected):

Wet - Ultimate or Raging Inferno*
Medium/benchmark (arc) - Fuze Eliminator
Medium (flip)- Element Au79
Medium (arc) - Classic Zone
Med/Dry (control) - Thing
Med/Dry (flip) - Vendetta Pearl
Dry (control) - Crisis

*I am getting both but will carry only one.  These are the best revving and hitting oil balls out there, the Ultimate especially.  I will only carry 5 of these balls at a time, and they will vary depending on the lane surface I will be bowling on.  I don't use a plastic ball because it takes up space for another condition ball.  Darn college bowling rules for only 5 balls per person.  But, that is what I got.

I mix and match what balls I bring with me depending on the house (I know, it's overboard).  In general I'm going with -

Super Charge (Med-Heavy Inside Line)
Depth Charge (Heavy Outside Line)
Charge Pearl (Med-Dry)

I may pick up a Heavy Oil Inside Line ball (XXXtreme) or a Dry ball (Barb Wire, Hot Rod, or RG Sonic X) through the season

In the 4-ball bag carried to most leagues in the area.  
1. Solid Uranium/Heavy
2. Uranium/Medium
3. Bullet/Light
4. Plastic/Spares
Should cover the basics for what I need on the standard league night.  In the car will be everything else I have in my profile for other circumstances or the occassional tournament. Wups this was the Storm forum.

I should just quit bowling, oh wait I already tried that.

Heavy Oil: Warp Zone
Med/Heavy: Mutant (rolly drilling)/Triton Elite Solid (Oh yeah!)
Medium: V2 Solid/Tour Power
Medium/Dry: Colossus (rolls like a Urethane ball)
White Dot for spares.


Of course there are many other balls I have that will be rotated throughout the early part of the season as well:
El Nino X-it, Trauma Recovery, WOW, V2 Strong, Silver Streak Pearl, Blue Hammer, Eraser Pearl Particle, and anything new I pick up between now and then.
