So thanks to itsallaboutme I won an Elite Z this month, and I plan to take it in today and have my driller put a MOtion hole layout on it. Given the ball's medium RG and differential and the weaker coverstock, I expect easy length and great backend, without too much over-reaction off the friction on light to medium oil volumes. Basically a killer THS ball. I'll keep you all posted.
In the mean time, I was practicing at a local house on a fresh THS shot and halfway into my second game I spy an old Elite R43 on the rack. The ball is single drill, stacked with the pin under ring. Although the span, finger, and thumb holes were all too big , after stuffing some tape into it I walk up and proceed to throw six in a row. Next game I bowled a clean 214 even though I could barely hold on to the ball. I was getting messengers galore and an extremely predictable ball motion.
I looked up info on the ball and no surprise, it has a mushroom core like my beloved Quantums. Anyway, I plan to get it plugged and redrilled at some point, too.
Look for a mini on the Z from me soon. Thanks again for the ball!
