Thinking about getting a SMoking Inferno
« on: April 02, 2006, 01:09:22 PM »
Is the SI worth getting? I hear good and bad things about it. I've heard that it doesn't roll as good as it should. Or, is it condition sensitive? If so, what's the best condition for it? I'm a high tracker ball speed at release is 21mph at the pins it's 18mph with a high rev rate. I get atleast 17 full revolutions before it hits the pocket. I've also heard that it isn't good for bowlers like me that have high speed. ANy help or suggetions would be appreciated.

Thanks guys for the info. Inverted, I'm just looking for a ball that will help me out on drier conditions and short oil conditions. How doe's it handle carry down? Thanks again guys.

smokin kills on med to med light.  nothing heavier than that unless you sand it down. if your house shot is medium, it would be a great pick up

I personally think the SI is just a little too touchy, for me at least.  I'm a speed dominant player, and I have a hard time getting any consistent reaction out of this particular ball.  I have heard it works better for higher rev players, but with my low revs it can give me real problems.  Personally, I'd look at something a little less skid/snap for drier conditions, but that's just me.
