Yep, I am obsessed!!!
« on: April 16, 2006, 11:31:39 PM »
Well, decided before the state tourney this weekend to fill a few gaps in my arsenal....I punched up Robo Rules #9 and #10! Here is what I already had with pics of the layouts below the descriptions. I wanted something with the pin just above the fingers to help the ball get a few feet further down the lane. Mostly everything else I have is pin below/even with the fingers, around 2-2 3/4 above the midline...so for Robo #9 I decided to leave the factory surface on the ball and place the pin above the ring (about 3 1/4 inches above midline, 5 inches from PAP) with the mass bias swung out 1 3/4 from the VAL. Extra hole int he thumb quadrant on the VAL 2 inches below PAP. I had a Rock On drilled very similar to this (no mass bias on it though) and really like the way this ball handled oil. While it was not the best oil ball, games 2,3 or 2nd shift (which I bowl Saturday at Inter City) it killed....

Robo #10.....I decided to drill like an old Avenger I had. Ball got decent length and had a super move (had a high diff though). Placed the pin 1 1/4 from PAP, 1 3/4 above midline with the mass bias just right of the thumb alomst 5 inches from the VAL. Left the factory surface on. Ball is similar on a fresh shot to another Robo, but there is a difference and I am sure if I hit drier stuff, this one will shine. Did not get to throw it much due to the holiday and stuff, so can't give you a real great feel yet....


#1 Pin 2 inches above midline, 3 1/2 from PAP.....mass bias 3 1/2 from VAL, factory surface

#2 Same as #1 but has Delayed Reaction on it

#3 Pin 1 1/2 above midline, 5 1/4 from PAP, mb 2 1/2 from VAL, factory surface

#4 same as #3 but with Delayed Reaction

#5 Pin 2 above midline, 4 1/2 from PAP, mass bias 6 1/4 from VAL, factory surface

#6 same as #5 but with Delayed Reaction

#7 Pin 4 inches above midline, 5 1/4 from PAP, mass bias 5 inches from VAL, factory surface

#8 Pin 2 1/2 inches above midline, 6 inches from PAP, mass bias 5 inches from VAL, Delayed Reaction

(NEW) #9 Pin 3 1/4 above midline, 5 inches from PAP, mass bias 1 3/4 from VAL, factory surface.

(NEW) #10 Pin 1 3/4 above midline, 1 1/4 from PAP, mass bias 5 inches from VAL, factory surface

And who says you can't cover all conditions with the same ball, just different surfaces and drillings??? I guess you're living proof it can be done.

Clint,  All I can say is you will get to see the drier shot you wanted on the double/singles.  We bowled the doubled and single on the wood side of the house (team was on synthetic side).  I shot 683 in double throwing the Desert Heat 17 - 5.  They were flying.

From what I understand, the synthetic side is much higher scoring (I have 3 friends who all shot over 800 in team) and did ok in doubles/singles, but they all said how much more room they had in team event! One guy who was leading all events when he left happened to get on the synthetic side for doubles/singles (I BELIEVE) and shot 730+ both of those sets (his story).....

Clint I was just woundering what the person you deal with from ace mitch. had to say when you had them send you two more. I have been there a few times to pick stuff up for carl and the pro shop. Anyway when you start to sell them save number 3. I may want that one. LOL. Dont worry I only need one.
