Im a lefty bowler who has bowled for about 10 yrs and i avg about 215 normally and i throw 18miles per hr.  This year the league has drenched the lanes and i am avging just 195.  Im looking for a new ball for heavy oil since i still throw an old 3D MAXXX from hammer.  

Im deciding between The ADDICTION or THE XFACTOR RELOADED

i dont know too much about the reloaded since it just came out.
the guy at the pro shop is tryin to get me to buy the addiction yet he doesnt know much about the reloaded yet either.  Please let me know what u think

I realize the re-loaded is polished while the addiction is sanded, which should be better for oiled lanes to catch early, but storm claims that the reloaded hooks well in oil and finishes hard in the backend.

I rather have a ball which goes longer and finishes hard in the backend, but i dont know w/ heavy oil if the xfactor reloaded can recover.

Let me know ur pick between the xfactor reloaded and the addiction.
Also if u can give me the best drilling option for each ball.  MEDIUM TO HEAVY OIL- i throw the ball from the middle and swing it between the first and second arrow.  

THX AGAIN

If you were to sand the reloaded down it will hook pretty good. But in box condition the Addiction will hook earlier than the reloaded, and if the oil is long enough it will actually hook through the oil on the backends better.

If you are throwing that hold hammer and it is just not quite getting there then the reloaded may be fine for you. BUT...with the slight shine it has, you better be able to find some dry boards.
