I will say this, my new NM worked very well on a long, tough pattern today. It was a very profitable day for me thanks to how well the NM rolled and carried. It paid for itself many times over today $,$$$!
Thanks Rich(Duke Harding), for coming up to watch me bowl.

I've been very impressed visually with the No Mercy particularly when drilled to the drill sheet.
Early and then lots of backend! Strong heavy rolling stuff!

Chitown,
So how many No Mercys have you owned so far? Have you tried the No Mercy Beat'n yet? Congratulations on bowling well. You haven't given up on your Angers, have you?

This new NM is my 4th i've bought. I sold my others ones before the league season started. In fact, I got rid of all my equipment a couple weeks ago and rebuilt a new arsenal. I traded in my strong drilled Anger's and then bought a NM, NEW ANGER, BLUE VIBE, and still have my SCOUT URETHANE.
I decided that the strong layout on my Anger's was just too much for most conditions. I found myself having to make lane adjustments often with these strong Anger's. I basically went back to the pin placement i've had the most success with which is pin above the bridge 5.5" from my pap. This pin placement just seems to give me a nice consistent reaction and I don't have to make as many adjustments during a league session.
I'm very happy with my arsenal right now. I had a big day at my league with the NM.

Chitown, for a medium to medium heavy house shot would you suggest the no mercy or anger more. Do not need something for really heavy, just a house shot with medium to heavy mediums. Let me now
Thanks

What was the series?

Since your talking about a house shot that has dry boards outside it really doesn't matter which ball you buy. I think both would work just fine. Of course you may need to adjust the cover on the Anger because it's pretty strong at the 2000 grit OOB cover grit.

I shot a 695! I know this don't sound like that high of a series but if you knew what kind of league and conditions I was bowling on, you would understand that it was pretty good. I won a good amount of cash yesterday with these scores. I shot a 231,233,231 and won $,$$$!
Needless to say, i'm very happy with the way my NM rolled on that pattern. I didn't have a single 10 pin all 3 games.

Roger, I always like the NM's I had before. The one thing that impresses me the most about the NM is the carry. This ball really carry's great.

Chitown does your new No Mercy have 5.5 pin to pap drilling on it? If not how do you have it drilled? I have one with the number 6 drilling on it and it was working good up to a couple of weeks ago. I think its dieing out. I would like to try one with the number one drill on it. Give me your thoughts.

I had a NM with a strong pin placement of 4" from my pap. This ball was way too strong in the mid-lane to be of much use for my game. I didn't like the reaction I got from it. Of course I probably didn't give it much of a chance before I traded that one in.
I also had the #6 layout on another NM and it rolled awesome. I also had a pin high above the ring finger(kind of a trick layout) and this ball was really long and very strong on the back end. More of a condition specific ball with this layout. I ended up getting rid of all my NM's over the summer.
For this new NM, I decided to place the pin above the ring finger which is about 5" from my pap. There's only about 1/2" to 3/4" difference from the #6 layout which places the pin above the bridge for me. I have not noticed much difference on the lanes between this NM and my #6 drilled one. However, i've only got about 7 games on this new NM.
This particular ball should not have the pin any closer than 4" from a bowlers pap. This ball creates a lot of flare and if drilled too strong, will burn up and not give much on the back end. This is where a lot of bowlers made mistakes with this ball. Make sure it's drilled based on your pap.

Not sure yet. I'm pretty happy with my current arsenal. My arsenal is only like 3 weeks old except for my urethane ball.
If I do get another ball it won't be until after the Holidays.
