mine too. It'll roll out - not save enough punch for the back end.

maybe if you polished the he11 out of it, but I agree, definately not for dry lanes.

it may work on dry lanes if your ball speed was 22mph+ or you had mika-type loft or you threw a spinner( maybe ). this ball works better on medium conditions.

I see questions likek tgis and they make me wonder: Why try to use a ball on conditions that it wasn't desogned for? When someone takes a ball designed to work on oil and drills it weak and polishes it, it just doesn't make sense to me. Buy a ball with a core and cover for those conditions and you'll have a ball that performs much better. Just my .02

The inferno is a very versatile ball. I can use mine on everything from heavy where I play it inside, to the lighter side of med by going way out, but anything less than that and it burns up. I would rather use it in a flood and throw it straight, than have to use it on a burnt lane because there is no way to keep it from going brooklyn, and/or it burning up halfway down.
