Returning to bowling after 4-years
« on: March 09, 2016, 04:42:05 PM »
I was a high track tweener around 15mph.  I bought a DV8 Unruly thug on clearance new for like 80$.  I have yet to drill it.   I am deciding if I should go pin up or down.  I will be bowling on sport shot leagues and 1 THS 40ft low volume.

Also  What other two balls would you get to compliment this one?

I was thinking a Hooligan taunt and maybe a ?????

I am new to dv8 and have never owned stuff from them.   My lat bowling bag was   Rotogrip defiant, mutant cell, mutant cell pearl,  shooting star, rising star.

I am thinking 3 will be plenty until I start bowling in tournies/sweepers again.

Vandal or Outcast.

Vandal would be more than Hooligan Taunt but less than the Unruly.

Outcast would go under Hooligan Taunt

I would grab a Vandal and the Outcast as well.  The Vandal is a must have bowling ball in general and is a great stronger benchmark piece.  The Outcast would give you the ability to cover the lighter conditions.

any suggestions on pin up vs pin down

If I went unruly, vandal, outcast as a 3 ball arsenal?

Vandal.

As far as whether pin up or down, what worked best for you before? 

I drill ALMOST everything for myself pin down (and tweak the surface as needed) because I like it for my crazy game... ;)

Welcome back to the sport.



Thanks I got to bowling my first games on Monday.  I was 608 after 3 ona  house shot.  Later that night I came back after leagues were done and was 530 after 3 on the Soeul Pattern after the scratch league.  This was with my old 716c redrill for sarge easter.  I was a high track tweener... Now I am a low track tweener.  Are my drilling layouts and pin position going to be much different as a low/mid track player now?
