Question About Arsenal
« on: March 20, 2006, 05:35:05 AM »
hey i was wondering what your opinions are about this arsenal.. Im going to pro shop so he'll hook me up but i want your opinions please.

Heavy- ???
Medium-Heavy- Action Packed (Pin above bridge Cg in Palm)
Medium- Smokin Inferno (drilled 2E)
Spare Ball

I was thinking a Scorchin' Inferno for my heavy slot i only want to carry 4 balls since i want to keep it easy and not complicated. And how to drill (again my pro shop will hook me up but i want your opinion)

Also i dont need a ball for medium-light because i never come across that.

Stats (Approximitally)
Righty
High Tracker
Medium Speed (15-16 if thats Medium)
Med-High Revs
Side Rotation

I definitally want a B ball because i experimented with Columbia and it hits like Sh** compared to my Smokin'. Would this be a good arsenal? Thanks

Just a coupla questions.  Is the columbia you tried that hits poorly, the Action packed?  If it is I would consider replacing that with an absolute if you are staying with brunswick.  The absolute will rev up sooner and handle oil better than the Smokin'.  I cannot tell you how to drill this considering you didn't post your pap, but go with a similar drilling to the smokin you have if not a bit lower pin position.
Assuming that you are content with the listed balls, the Scorchin is a good choice.  I would certainly take a bit of surface off it as the ball will be alot stronger than the AP oob.  Do not hesitate to go with a higher pin as the ball will really motor.

Well right now, Brunswick only has 2 maybe 3 balls that will handle the heavy oil. Scorchin Inferno, Strike Zone, and maybe the Impulse Zone. Thats how i would rate them from best to least for your Heavy oil slot.

I would suggest a Strike Zone. It can handle alof of oil, and polished up can handle medium and more. Changing the cover really opens this ball up to options. I see my old Ultimate in this ball, alot.

Hello, Goliath! And the Ambush is equal to the IZ in this capacity I think!
--------------------
Check out http://www.bowlingkingdom.com . Tell 'em twoheadedboy sent ya!

Need new stuff? Get it from http://www.birddogbowling.com and get it drilled by Mike Austin!


I havnt put those in the list because of local reports about the Goliath, mainly no one has it locally, and the Ambush, ive seen 2 and both didnt seem to like the heavy oil from what i saw. For the right person, those might be great but to me, i wasnt impressed.
