More information on your style would be useful, but as you're a stroker, I'll assume low to medium revs and medium speed.  Start with a Wizard or maybe a Red Zone, both are very versatile balls that can be drilled and surfaced to cover a very wide range of oil conditions.  Since you're looking for medium-heavy, I'd put a strong drill on them, maybe 4" pin-to-PAP, pin even with the finger line, and the CG or MB at 4:30.  Should give you enough side weight to add a weight hole if you want it.

I would agree on the Wizard. The cover reads the lane earlier than any Brunswick reactive, so with the right surface and layout, it's a "can't miss" ball for what you're describing. This ball seems to be a well-kept secret for some unknown reason. Terribly under-rated.

And PK18 is proven, time-tested, and one of the longest lasting covers you'll ever find.
