1-2 Punch
« on: May 26, 2006, 01:37:13 AM »
Been looking at lane1 for quite a while, and have decided to take the plunge over the summer and see for myself. In general terms, what would be a good 1-2 punch for a stroker with good ball speed to cover a variety of conditions except the extremes(very dry or oily). Thanks for any input!

P.S. Was looking at the HDB back in December.

Solid Uranium.
Pearl Uranium (Cobalt if finding a Pearl Uranium becomes too difficult).

Tsunami or the H20 and the Hybrid Dirty Bomb or maybe the Carbide Plus.

I'm taking the H20 and the Hybrid Dirty Bomb because the way they are drilled, they are both drilled with more control then the Tsunami and the carbide plus but still have some kick.

I like the Carbide +, and the Cobalt. Medium/Heavy for the Carbide + (also possibly some carry down), and medium to the lighter side of medium for the Cobalt.

 Enjoy the people on the ballreview.com forum. Like to help when I can.

Thanks for all the input! I am now leaning towards a 3 punch.
Cobalt or H2O - Drier
Tsunami - Benchmark
Uranium Solid - Heavier Stuff

Gazoo,

Go with the Carbide Plus for the heavier stuff!

It appears Gazoo had his mind made up before he asked for advice. The majority here suggesting the cobalt & carbide plus, however that must not matter. Sorry we(majority) couldn't help.

Sawuser,
Actually have not made up my mind. Sawmill got me on the Carbide+ for the heavier stuff and not the US. The Tsunami looks like a good benchmark ball. The Colbalt and H2O look good for dryer, just have not used pearls much. Decisions Decisions!!!!!
