Finally got a light oil ball that I believe will not overreact on most light oil conditions I face: the Dynothane Barrage. I tried it out this morning at the house where DJ's Pro Shop is located in Auburn, MA. Bowled on a fresh oil condition with it on the high end of the house. Experimented for 3 games with it. I was informed that this ball is great for down and in players, so for the first game I stuck around 10 board with it playing down and in- it would go long and then make a steady arc to the pocket. Tried moving deeper inside and swinging a little but due to the ball dynamics it didn't have enough strength to kick out the corners. I think this will work great on light oil and toast conditions, awesome control and hitting power.

Thanks to Chris (Goof1073) for the recommendation along with John at DJ's Pro Shop- I'll report more as I get the chance to use it more...

Update: I was able to use the Barrage in my Tuesday night league tonight after suffering a miserable 135 opening string (5 splits in the first 9 frames). This ball is truly a godsend for difficult conditions, I play down and in over the second arrow and kept myself out of trouble the following two games for a 202 and 179 (which should have been 190 if not for an errant spare miss in the 9th). I think this is going to be my go to ball on Tuesday nights.
