I have just got an Eliminator for my wife. That thing will go down roughly about 35 feet and turn hard left. It is still brand new I don't know if I want to polish it a little bit or just let her keep throwing waiting for the track to get into the ball and let it slowly calm down. She does throw with a little higher ball speed. With her Swamp Monster she usually will play straight up 5. With this she actually has to swing the ball a little in my eyes however in hers it is a lot. Looking for help from anybody here. I am tossed up of what to do.

If she can control the ball in the dull box finish, I'd say to leave it dull.  If you polish a ball like that, chances are you'll get some over/under with it.  Maybe have her polish the swamp monster and use that when there's not enough oil for the eliminator.

I'm not sure I understand what the actual problem is. You say,
"the Eliminator is to strong right now and the Swamp Monster is just about perfect."

If the Swamp Monster is pefect, why use the Eliminator?
Because it is new is not a good reason.

Also because the eliminator hooks more is not a reson to polish it.
Note that you said she has to move deeper; you did not say it was hooking too early, which would or might be a problem.

WHat you are saying (as near as I can interpret it) is that she is unhappy SOLELY because she cannot play the same line with the ELiminator that she plays with the Swamp Monster. If I am wrong, please correct me or explain further details. If I am not wrong, both you and she need to alter your point of view.

Just like most people with a new ball not knowing for sure what it will do exactly. Let me explain on that if you are told a ball will get further down the lane then say the Swamp Monster and have a good move to the pocket you don't exactly know what to expect. Am I right on that? It is not that she does not like it. IT is just something that she is not use to. I know that by being brand new that it will react a little bit harder until a track gets in the ball. I have been bowling long enough and used enough brand new equipment to know that will happen. My question is should WE wait until the ball starts to get a track in it to see if it dies down OR should WE put a little bit of polish on it to tame it down. She likes the ball and wants to learn to play differnt lines so she can better herself. So getting in deep and letting her swing the ball is not the problem. The problem is that it is such a hard snap when it flips over. She is not upset that she can't play the same line as she does with her Swamp Monster. I am just wondering what to do. So I don't want to polish it just because it hooks more it would be for control reasons.
