best ball for carrydown condition
« on: February 26, 2005, 12:48:44 AM »
When the back-end gets dirty and has lots of oil carrydown which of the following balls would give my the best reaction

1. Impulse Zone
2. Denim Quantum
3. Jade tour Quantum
4. Burgendy Quntum (eurothane)

Haven't decided which is best for this condition...reactive...proactive or eruothane....  Your thoughts please.  Dr C"

So if you have a brunswick cover on a brunswick lane with brunswick oil you can gain an advantage. I know some guys that will like to see a brunswick rep admit that.

Ric,
I run into this condition in the late afternoon...the house runs a full-up lane conditioning prior to the the evening the squad but the next day they just put a light over coat of oil with no cleaning.  In the morning I can usually use my fire quantum, jade tour even my my impulse but when there has been some play and the oil moved around I would like a little better carry. I am only using a 12 lb ball due to some physical limitations but have 6 or so sanctioned 700 series amd 3 sanctioned 298 games so the ball weight doesn't seem to be the problem...I have been living and bowling in Perth, Australia for about a year and half so I'm a little out of touch...all my stuff is Brunswick...about 15 balls...thanks...Dr "C"...p.s. Ric are you located in Las Vegas ?

Ric,
Like my impulse, but only have a few games with it.  Its drilled for dry lanes as I was concerned it might hook too much..most of my balls are drilled finger over or under bridge as its was short oil when I got them.. my ball speed is about 13 (pro's 18)and my pap is 5 and 1/2 up 1/2...get good rev's.  My best ball is the Jade Quntum Tour...hooks and hits like a freight train.  The reason I asked about Las Vegas was Dan Nadeau was my doubles partner when he was a teenager....also bowled a couple of times with Carol Gianni when she was home in Australia....lanes in Australia ...dead dry, like a bike trail..
