It depends on the drillings on them. All of them are basically for the same conditions. You could have some massive overlap. That is 5 different balls that are designed for medium light-medium heavy. IMO, get rid of 3 of them and get a dull solid, a dry lane ball, and a wild card of sorts. Unless, you only plan on seeing mediums and nothing but mediums.

My vapor is drilled aggressive so on Heavy oil shots i tend to play down five wit that. My total and absolute are also my heavy oil balls cuz i like to play deep with those and i was looking for a dry lane ball maybe a Sidewinder or a wizard!

For heavy oil, you need surface. Not just a strong drilling. BTW, you are not going to play deep on heavy/long oil either. I still say, get rid of 3 of them and build yourself a good and balanced arsenal using balls that were designed for the conditions rather than using 5 medium oil balls. You will be happy you did.

I dont know your exact drillings and I will take a guess at it. I would keep the Total, and the Vapor Zone. I would add Fury for Heavy, Groove Dry R for light/dry, and a wild card of some sort. Maybe a punisher between the Vapor and the Dry R? Does a wild card have to be Brunswick? Sometimes other brands can give you a totally different shape and reaction that can help deversify your arsenal.

If I was you, I would keep the Vapor Zone, Absolute, and Sidewinder. Then go get the new Blast Zone and have it drilled strong, this will be your heavy oil ball. Then go get a Radical Inferno drilled weak and have them polish it a little more than box. I would also get another Vapor Zone drilled the opposite of your own.
