Sport Shot

Any suggestions for balls to drill for sport shot conditions. People have said you need a stable consistent ball.

Based on the information provided in your question, there's not much one can say except maybe -
Since most sport shots do not allow a lot of swing area, controll balls and/or drillings are usually one's safest choice, be they oilers or dry lanes balls. FYI Sport shots can be heavily oiled or VERY dry patterns.

Depends on the Sport Shot, heavy oil or light, length of pattern, etc.  There are too many variables to say that one ball is better than another on a sport shot.  I've used, and seen used, anything from a pearlized ball to heavy load particle.  It all depends on the pattern.  The real key on a sport shot is consistently repeating the shot and making your spares, not using a paticular ball.
