Power should never be a concern with bowling balls. Control and entry angle are the 2 most important factors. If you have a ball you can control easier you will have more "area" at the breakpoint. If you can match up the entry angle witht the conditions you can strike all day. It shouldnt matter if you are using plastic or a V2, it's whatever knocks down the most pins.
Don B has the right idea of staying within a line of balls that you feel comfortable with. If you have 4 or 5 balls with similar cores, you can go to each one of them in succession and "fine-tune" your ball reaction. If the V2 Pearl squirts a little, go to the V2. If the V2 is a little to strong coming off the pattern go to the V2 Particle to smooth it out. Now with the V2 Strong and V2 Dry you have 2 more options in the same line. As far as how will the V2 Strong carry it all depends on your speed, rev rate, entry angle and lane condition. So to answer your question AllStar23, it all depends on you at that particular time.
