I have gotten way too many balls drilled and I am going to sell everything and start over. What do you think of this 6 pack in terms of covering my bases?

Terms weaker and strong are relative to the category (solid or pearl).

Spares/ Scorched lanes...12:00 label shift Blue Pearl Hammer
"Weaker" Pearl Resin...3-1/2 pin x 5-1/2 MB Pioneer, pitched weighthole
"Strong" Pearl Resin...5-1/2 x 3-1/2 Pearl Uranium (or possible S&A)
"Weaker" Solid Resin...4x4 Ravage or Hybrid Dirty Bomb
"Strong" Solid Resin...pin under ring, cg out Solid Uranium
Particle...4x4 Super Carbide Bomb

I am also keeping my 5x4 Super Carbide which may replace the "Strong Solid Resin"...I just love that ball.

ANy opinions?

I'm no pro shop guru, but why wouldn't you stick a  Pearl Particle in the lineup? I noticed you seem to like the smaller companies (as do I) and the Onslaught would be a very good ball to replace the Strong Pearl Resin or maybe even the Weak Solid Resin (although it isn't a solid). Just my opinion, but don't you think the Super Carbide & Super Carbide Bomb would be pretty close in reaction also? I know I've thrown both, and the SCB does hook more, but it did seem like they were pretty close to me.

Pearl PArticles and I do not get along. I have had several and have not been able to throw any of them particularly well.

I have tried an OnSlaught, Golden Nugget, Eraser PP, Big Blue PEarl etc and have had no luck with them.

My Super Carbide reacts a lot like a resin since I have a length drill on it and it's polished. It gets another 4-5 feet over the Super Carbide Bomb and has a snappier backend.

Control drill on a Ravage...hmmmmmm. Could be an option. The Pioneer is drilled 3-1/2" pin to PAP and the RC is under the thumb so that would be pretty close in terms of drill pattern but if I used a Ravage it would be a more aggressive midlane....interesting idea...thanks Jeff!
