Thanks again for the advice. I'm not sure what patterns are going to be used, so I'm thinking of developing a sport/tournament arsenal so I don't have to bring my equipment home with me every week, I can get a locker there which will prevent bringing my stuff to work and having my equipment freeze in my truck before I go to bowl that night.
I will need a heavy long pattern ball, a medium length oil pattern ball a short oil ball and a carry down ball, by that I mean a ball I can play deep inside when the heads have broken down a bit and get the ball out to around 12 to 15 at the break.
My specs are 5 3/4 over and 1/2 up, I get between 200 and 400 rpm depending on how I throw it, and between 0 and 80 degrees of axis rotation, Ron Clifton and Dr. Briggs have taught me to be pretty versitile.
For the heavy/ long pattern ball I am thinking of using my Big One, or picking up an Infinite One down the road.
For the Medium oil I might need two balls here, but for now I need one really versitile ball and I will fill the hole later.
For the short Oil I will need a drill pattern as well as a ball for this, since I don't see it very often, like maybe twice in the last 5 years, but they may put a short pattern and the only thing I have is my Blue Ice 5 1/2" pin 3 1/2" above the midline no weight hole, which may not be enough ball.
Again thanks in advance.
Jim
