Good Bruns ball for medium house condition?
« on: June 16, 2005, 10:11:55 AM »
I'm finding I have either too much or too little with my present balls.  (Big Deal, Sling Blade, ZC Red)  So I'm looking for a ball that will fit between the sling and the Big Deal.  I'm thinking of maybe a Green Pin, an Absolute, or maybe an OI if I can find it.  What would your choice be?

Any of those would be fine.

Medium house condition?  BVP Nemesis.

Of their current line,
either a lightly polsihed Nemesis or a lightly polished Absolute Inferno, depending on the drilling AND the bowler's "hand".

Between the Big Deal and the Sling?  Thats a big gap.  Go with the Absolute for sure.  The Absolute will cover more of the gap than a Classic or a Nemesis.

for a medium house condition three balls come to mind: the inferno was a great ball for this( find one if you can ). the zone classic worked very well for me last year---it's also a little cheaper. if you're on a budget look no further than a bvp nemesis---great roll and low price.

Absolute is by far the most versatile ball for medium conditions in the Big B line.  Just my opinion.

I would go with an Original Inferno if you can find one.

I'll have to see if I can get a hole of a NIB OI, but I may have a ZC or Absolute coming my way.  Thanks for the advice!  Oh, does it help to know I'm a tweener with low to medium revs who likes to play the track area and outside?

NO

It is to late to tell us that now.

Well knowing that DOES help, but the AI and ZC are versatile enough that everyone, from fluffers to Nick/Joe crankers can use them.

There is no better all-around "go to" ball at this time than the AI. However, that being said, any medium to medium low RG ball with a solid PK18 cover (Nemesis) would have to be a close second. I prefer the AI over the OI or ZC - as it covers more territory, and can be made to fit almost anywhere with surface tweaks. For those rare times when it starts up a bit too soon, I go down to a Danger Zone (Nemesis would work as well).
You can't go wrong with either the AI or Nemesis. Let budget be your guide.

Well, since budget is not an issue, at least on this one ball, I think I will probably go with the AI.  Though I much prefer the purple color of the ZC!!

A great ball for medium house shots is the Bruiser and on Ebay they have been selling for 25-35. I think this ball is my all time favorite ball and I just got two more off ebay. For anyone who has the inferno hook too much for them, they should look into this ball.

Well, my pro shop had an OI in fifteen pounds, the last one, and he wanted 190 for it, WITHOUT drilling.  Yeah, right.    I have a Green Pin on the way anyhow, I think it'll work ok for me.  I need a ball that revs up nice, as I don't have very much hand.  Tweener speed with low revs.
