Recommendations for a dry to med-dry ball
« on: March 29, 2006, 10:39:49 AM »
Does anyone have any recommendations for a ball that would suit a tweener-style player with average ball speed of 17 MPH, average rotation, and slightly above average revs on medium-dry lanes?   My pro shop operator recommended the Elements Ice for me.  Do you think this is a good choice? Thanks.

That's a good one. I'd also have you look at the Show Time Pearl or Game Time. However, I do not know the conditions at your lanes where your driller knows you and your conditions better than I, just a suggestion

The Crossfire would also be a good choice it will get very clean through the fronts and have good backend.The black ice will be very smooth on the back but still be very clean through the front part of the lane..

Ice is the #1 choice, then Crossfire, maybe the black Ice with a surface modification.  Puma could also be looked at.  Threw one the other night and was VERY impressed with the reaction and hit.

Thanks for the recommendations, everyone.  I ended up going with the Ice and it's a fantastic ball. Glides right through dry heads and has a nice conrollable backend.
