I'm having a tuff time getting the ball to move on a reg house shot. Out of bax cover. No matter how deep I get in the lane, the ball just acrs a couple boards and quits ?
I'm also getting a odd flare parrern. The ball with tracking almost above the fingers ? Hiting any holes or anything.
Maybe a cover change >?
Anyone ?

Do you have a pic of this odd track that you're experiencing?
If I had to put money on it and take a random shot in the dark, I'd say that the ball is probably burning up a bit...but that wouldn't explain the track you're seeing.
I've got multiple Risings that are anywhere from 500 dull to 4000 and polish.
The ball is quite versitle if you make a good decision on cover prep.

I liked my mean machine at 1k no polish, but was worried that adding more surface to the Rising would make the problem worse. At any rate, think I'll try the 1k no polish tomorrow at league and if it does not work, Kinetic, Temper or Arsenal Artillery if the lanes are not oiled heavy.
I did like the Rising's carry at OOB, but if I got the ball out too far, the lanes were fried on the outside and it visibly struggled getting down the lane and hit like an absolute marshmellow. I moved inside but had less recovery with the Rising then I did with my Kinetic or Temper. If I made the shot, which was tight, the Rising carried the corners better than the Kinetic or Temper, just not much room to miss, probably due to my up the back release.

1k no polish the ball will dominate a medium-heavy shot, i hated this ball until the surface change now use it weekly for games 1 or sometimes 2 .

I'm willing to bet the #1 drilling doesn't work for you becuase your speed and rev raet are high. I'm the same and the demo day ball I rolled acted like yours. You probably should redrill it for #2 and polish it some.

You described the ball perfect ! If I send it wide, I get nothing, but if I tug it in the oil it will hold and hit..somewhat better.
I tried a well used 500 Abralon pad on it, just pu a couple pot games on it last night...and it won me some money
We shall see in league tonight....

This ball does what it wants to do. Get it outside and no hook.
Tug it and it goes stright.
This is all on a fresh, well oiled THS.
Mark this up as a failure....There was a reason I always stayed away from Track....Next Please

Did you have the layout changed per your span? If it is drilled #1 based off of someone else's span the measurements could be off.

Yep, I did...
I went ahead and printed the drilled sheet of out and took it with me when I got the Rising punched up. I had just had another ball drilled up earlier in the week, so my PAP location hasnt changed.
If I play inside... Flat 10
If I play tight... Ringing 10
