Just bought a warrior elite. Thrown it on my house shot. Not impressed. My warrior hooks just as much as my elite. Do not know why? My PSO drilled my elite more agressive than my Warrior. Any suggestions?
-
are they drilled the same? If not that could be the problem also there could be too much friction for the elite causing it to set rather than continue to hook.

They r drilled different. Elite is drilled stronger.

Was the THS fresh, or on the carry down?
BL.

Fresh shot. Used it 1st game then switched.

The THS does have a tendency to make all balls look the same at times. I would be curious if the shape of the ball was the same. The warrior should have gotten farther down the lane the Elite. The warrior tends to hook much later. You are probably seeing this and it makes it look like the Elite is not hooking as much. Also what is the type off drilling on each? Where is the Pin?

the 2 balls are somewhat similar in the numbers, but different covers for sure
one being a hybrid and 200 dull, the other being a pearl
definitely 2 different lengths and shapes, most likely meant to compliment each other, your league shot could absolutely be masking this.
Need to know more info on layouts as stated above
surfaces and pin distances, pin location, etc will help determine the expected motion
do not despair, these can be fixed with surface, weight hole(s), etc
You have to expect to tweak a new piece these days, its just the way it is in todays modern game

Elite removes oil. Red gets down the lanes much further than Elite.
It appears the Elite is reading(hooking) the lanes too soon.
When you bowl on more oil, you will see the Red scoot way down.
You will find the the Elite doing what it was made for.
