Hyjinx good light oil pearl?
« on: June 19, 2008, 01:49:44 PM »
Summer league lanes oiled very light.
Heads fried by third game.

Anyone had good success with this on light oil lanes ?
Control ?
Consistency ?
Carry ?

Thanks in advance.

I think the hyjinx might be a little strong for those conditions (unless you have lots of speed and/or low revs).. actually I think its a solid?  Anyway. supposed to be the stronger of the two (jinx and hijinx).  Might be able to make it work with a milder layout and lots of polish though...  though the jinx is probably a better choice for your described condition.

Agree with everything said by Strapper.

Both great balls with lower flare potential.

Both like pretty fresh backends and don't cover a lot of boards quickly in the back.

Both are smooth and strong and most of the strength comes from the great coverstock on both these balls.  NOT from the low flare core!

REgards,

Both balls are pretty low rg for a smooth early move.
