What is your best heavy oil ball?
« on: February 13, 2006, 08:39:43 AM »
I am looking for a strong rolling heavy oil ball... it doesn't have to be Brunswick... I just want to ball that flat out owns the oil and won't die after 30 games like my Ultimate Inferno kinda did.

looking at:

Action
Scorching Inferno



--------------------
Arsenal:

Ultimate Inferno - Heavy oil
Original Inferno - Heavy to Medium oil
Smoking Inferno - Medium to Dry
Blue Dot - Spare ball

give the ebonite xxxcel a try !

Pretty good ball for pretty good oiled lanes, but I think a cranker doesn`t need such a ball, except that he bowls with lightspeed or the lanes are really flooded.

DynoThane Pure Energy and Centrifugal Mass will both last forever and I can tell you from personal experience that the Pure is a great control ball in oil, and absolutely ignores carrydown.

Stan: Marry him?

i wuld say SEEK and DESTROY would handle the most amount of oil with a good drilling. I have one and it out hooks my sanded Paradigm by at least 10-15 boards

I Dont have a mark juss throw the ball in an area BUT I STILL STRIKE

There isn't a person in the universe that has an EPX and a Super Carbide Bomb and still needs a real heavy oil ball.  Either sand something to 80 grit like Dave Traber, grow some hand, or learn to bowl on something other than a medium oil house shot.

All heavy oil balls need some maintenance because of their covers and the amount of oil they absorb.  Also, the Ultimate is far from a ball for soup, so I don't even know why you included it.

Currently using a SCB for heavy oil. Have used it over 30 games and it still moves; too strong when the lanes break down. I have also thrown a Strike Zone which can handle heavy oil as well...

I think that the way to go is the V2 power. Strong ball for heavier lanes, early rolling, and strong at the break point.

Hmmm I still haven't found any oil that my Sniper can't handle... And I've never used her much squared up... So my best heavy oil ball for now its my sniper... If I ever need something stronger will go with a Scorchin'

i have been seeing a few guys shooting with the t s and a and they are playing with them on lighter shots with success. one guy was using one on the same pattern i couldnt keep a plastic ball on line and the ball was moving 7 boards and finding the pocket
