What bowling ball should I get
« on: February 19, 2007, 09:39:52 AM »
I have a question for anyone who can help me...

I am a bowler who bowls down and in.  I have bowled this way all of my life.  I bowl with an Overtime, Crossfire, and V2 Sweet.  I wanted a very aggressive bowling ball, but with the way I bowl I am not sure if a super aggressive ball would even work.  What are some of your suggestions for me?  What kind of bowling ball would work for me?  Is there something that I should be doing differently like possibly wearing a brace...??  I just need some advice on what my next bowling ball purchase should be.

Thanks..

Don't use a brace. I am not a fan of a braces because they also cut back revolutions on your ball.

Simply put; go with the RXS300. The ball is a beast, because it is a pearl reactive, and will get down the lane and have that type of aggressive move you wanted but not too aggressive

Something really aggressive for down and in isn't really needed unless the lanes are flooded. Something smooth like a Mammoth would work or if you want some backend, possibly the Angular One. A Black Widow could also work if you have the right surface and drilling. I'm also a down and in bowler and the Strike Zone is my heavy oil ball. It hooks early which is good for carrydown. Best of luck to you.

I think the Total NV would be a great choice.  I have seen the NV work extremely well from all angles with a variety of styles (strokers to crankers).  It is aggressive but rarely uncontrollable and it takes to cover adjustments really well.
