From what I've thrown (Hawg and Road Hawg) I'd go with the Road Hawg...

Heavy oil..Hawg
Length, drive, backend..Road Hawg
Most versatile..med/heavy to med/light...Hawg Wild

From what I read on here, those that have it love the Road Hawg. On the lanes I bowl, med length, med pattern ( I don't remember the exact pattern), it's OK, but not the "wonder ball" I thought it would be. That may well be the lanes here and not a fair example everywhere. Anyway, from what you say, I'd suggest the Hawg, it takes more oil than either of the others.

However, I do love my Hawg Wild and have played with the cover so it takes almost as much oil as my teammates' Hawg, not as much, but close. If you have a long/heavy pattern, I'd still go with the Hawg, you can always touch it with polish if you have to.

Got a teammate that uses a Road Hawg...what a ball ! Goes long then hard left turn ( righty). More backend than my Hawg Wild, less midlane hook, but a great ball !

Road Hawg isn't for heavy oil, the next Hawg is the ball for heavy oil condtions.  Real strong

Yes i know what you mean my bro has the Road Hawg and that ball wont come up in heavy oil at all. His leaves oil on the cover, i thought the ball was supposed to absorb oil?

Most of these balls could work on heavy oil if they were dulled to the right grit.
