Help with Arsenal
« on: July 24, 2007, 05:39:35 AM »
I am looking to get one more bowling ball to complete my arsenal of the best bowling balls on the market today.  I already have an AMB Particle, Frankie May, Ogre Solid, Ogre Pearl, and Green/Blue Centaur.  All bowling balls are drilled 4x4  with the pin below the ring finger.  My PAP is 4 3/8 over and 1 1/4 up.  I am looking for a ball that will go between the AMB Particle and Frankie May.  I was thinking about the Immortal Solid to give me some swing room to the right when encountering flat or difficult patterns.  I threw the Frankie May on what was a flat pattern of about 38 to 40 feet.  The AMB Particle was too much ball for this pattern.

Would the Immortal Solid be a good fit or should I go with another ball?  I have also considered the AMB Solid and the Granite Gargoyle.  Thank you for all your help.

I didn't need Chuck Norris last night when I finally shot my first 800 series.

All bowling balls are OOB.  I am also a speed-dominant bowler.

P.S.  Congratulations on your 300 at the USBC Nationals, TrimMan.

AMB solid because it has the weight block of the amb centaur and the cover of the frankie may

I have decided on the Immortal Solid.  The combination of a low RG (2.51) and a high Differential (.078) will enable me to give me some room for error if I leak the ball a little too far to the right on tight, flat oil patterns.  Hopefully, it will perform as well as my Track Synergy ETS ball did.  I felt the ETS gave me a little swing room to the right.  Also, the ball is at 1000 Matte and surface changes are possible to fit it between the AMB Particle and Frankie May.

Thank you for all your responses.
