I don"t usually have to worry about blinkers on my bowling balls. Has anyone put a strong arc on a Revenge or even a control drilling on this ball , I have a high track and I'm a stroker.

 Few things to consider. First, the revenge is a lower rg ball than the rest of the line meaning it will want to read the midlane a touch sooner. It is also at 2000 with no polish. You can always change the surface to tweak the reaction and asymmetric balls give you lots of options to further tweak ball reaction.

Second, if you generally don't get the ball to turn sideways, it probably wont. It may be more angular than you normally get but nothing too drastic.

What you should get from the revenge is a ball that lets you get inside the oil pattern a little and get recovery throwing it to the right and traction in the oil. Remember this ball will need oil to be at its best.

Hope that helps some.

I have drilled one HRR so far and can only say wow! I drilled mine farely weak (pin over middle finger) and the ball is just a monster in my hands. However, we did have a guy come into our shop and drill one, the bowler was a stroker. Drilled it with the pin about 1 1/2 inch above the ring with the MB slightly kicked out. the guy loved the ball and is actually looking to order a Too Reckless. Like yourself, this player has a slightly higher track but has a medium to low speed. This ball revved up very well and didnt make a incredible jump off the back end. It was was farely smooth and had a great arc off the break point. I will advise you that this ball is not for the faint of heart. It hooks, and then hooks some more. Could be the most ball I have ever put in my hands!
