Opinion of what's better?
« on: April 07, 2005, 04:40:03 AM »
I was wondering what everyone's opinion was of what is better for carry, Asymmetrical or Symmetrical weight blocks?

I'm not sure where I stand yet, but was just looking for other people's thoughts.

Pretty much what Bob said.  You can't make a sweeping generalization as to which is better.  On one condition for a certain style of bowler, Assymetrics will be better, one a different condition for a different style, Symmetric is the way to go.

I wasn't looking for the technical answer, I was just wondering people's opinion of what they liked better. I understand carry is about ball roll and match up and he who is matched up better wins. I was just wondering what people thought.

I guess my answer didn't come off quite right.  I was trying to say that I can't say which is better.  I bowl in 2 leagues, in one league I use only asymetric, the other I use only symetric, and I average right around the same.  When I switch, the scores drop.  The one I like better is the one that is working at the moment I need it.

Agreed, they are smoother for me and with my slow speed and above avg revs well, I need the control.
