I got this ball from a person off this site cheap and decided to punch it up. It was low games (less than 20). I wanted something to replace my Shock Zone because it just had to many games and had been resurfaced a few too many times.
Overall
This ball is flat out clean through the heads no matter how dry the shot got. As I said before I wanted something to replace my Shock Zone, but be more of a rolling backend instead of jerky. This ball did great. It rolls mid-lane and a strong rolling backend. This is one of the few true heavy oil balls I have seen out on the market. I have had gotten to throw 10 games with this ball. Six games on a 50ft flat pattern, and four on a 38ft wall.
50ft flat pattern
I started as I always do standing on board 22 throwing eight at the break point, playing straight up. This ball shot worked well for the pattern. I had a few boards to the left, but little to the right. I shot three games playing this shot 250, 220, 225. I was sitting in third after three. A few people around me were somewhat mentally competent enough to start playing my line and it dried out significantly. Anyone that knows me knows that I like to play straight up. So I moved left to 22 (standing) and 15 at the break point. This shot as well worked and I shot 210, 223, and 207. With some extra oil the breakpoint of this ball was pushed down the lane and it controlled the hook well.
38ft wall shot
On this shot, you have like eight boards either way. I started out unorthodox for me and was swinging the ball. I was standing 40 and breakpoint 6. With this shot I was able to carry the corner pins the best at Miller Time Bowl in Davenport Iowa. I was able to keep that shot for the first four games I went 215 231, 232, 231. I was sitting in good shape and maybe moved left a board or so during those four games (after each game you moved 4-5 pair) During the fifth game the carry had gone away and the shot was starting to tighten up compared to the beginning of the day so I grabbed a different ball and moved right.
