I am using an original Mission with the pin about 41/2" from my pap and about 1" over the ring finger.  The mb is in a strong position and the surface is 4000 Abralon.  My problem is one of the houses has put down a pattern that takes me out of my comfort zone which is more or less down and in going up anywhere from 5 to 12.  Now the best shot seems to be between 17 and 25.  My problem is that when I play this shot and miss just a little right, the ball is just not strong enough to come back for me and, of course, a little miss left is through the nose.  I need something that will allow me to play this shot, miss a little right, and still get the ball to come back to the pocket.  I was wondering if the Mission 2.0 or the new Mission $250K would solve the problem?  Or would the Track 900AT or a Columbia Pure Physics be a better choice?  By the way, I have tried my Mission at 1000 Abralon and didn't like it.  Have not tried it at 2000 yet.

 

Any ideas or advice would be appreciated. 

Mission 250K or Pure Physics are out because they read the lane earlier than the Mission. A 2.0 wouldn't be a bad choice as long as you keep it shiny. This would allow for more recovery downlane when you miss right, and if there is enough oil in the center, it may hold if you miss left. I would stay away from Track just because that line is more of a downlane reaction meaning it could skid too far. As long as you like your Mission, you might as well stay in that line.

 

By the way the box surface on a Mission is 2K Abralon. I'm not sure if you changed it or got it from someone who changed it to 4K. With the reaction you're looking for you wouldn't like 2K either
