Well, it is like this... I was posting good scores with my DT Element but about 4 weeks ago my center changed oil and no more great motion from the Element till the lanes go dry... I took my Absolute, green scotch-b with water, twice. After readapting to the ball, last 3 weeks in league put scores of 570-615-619. Yesterday I went 217 (couple of splits), 237 (brooklyn 10 pin which I missed, and pocket 8 pin, perhaps my best shot of the night), and 165 in the third (didn't make the move, either 5 or more boards left with the AI or going with the Element). I have a 186 avg in this league.

Great ball, definitely I had to keep my speed up, and great carry. Before this it was a big over-under ball for me, but as I have improved my game (better balance + free armswing = more speed and revs), it's until now that I'm really enjoying this ball. Specs: 15lb, pin above fingers like 5" from pap, cg below ring finger, no balance hole.

nice job

however, my approach on how to use a ball such as absolute would be different, i believe speed and rev is going to be very sensitive to the absolute, thats why when u dont have a consistent roll u might have trouble with over/under
--------------------
When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment

When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one.
