« on: September 06, 2005, 04:39:27 PM »
Can it be used for dry lanes, if not, what should i use.
Specs:
Low ball speed
High revolutions
Dry lanes with quite clean backends(sometimes there's carrydown)
32 feet buffed to 35 feet oil pattern
wood lanes.

My revolutions also overpower my speed and I would never use the Sweet on anything remotely dry. Mine is drilled with the pin 5½" from the PAP and the CG in the middle of the grip. I have polished it first with Factory Polish and then with Extender Polish even with that surface it is still a medium oil ball.

For the condition you described I would try an Ice drill it 5½"-6" or 1"-1½" pin to PAP depending on your rotation and tilt. The 1"-1½" pin to PAP calms the break point down but still doesn't hook much and the lanes being wood I think you need to control the back end. A light scuff also calms down the break point. If you can find one the Stinger Low Flare Pearl would be a very good choice also drill it weak.

Other balls than Ebonite could be: Hammer Vibe, Burgundy Pure Hammer, Power Groove Dry/R, Super Trooper, Crisis Pearl or Desert Heat all drilled accordingly

Ice,the best to look for. V2 Sweet is a Med Oil ball, on dry you could never control it.
