If You Could Only Have One Ball........
« on: June 04, 2006, 03:32:31 PM »
If you bowled on lanes where the oil always ranged from light to medium plus (almost medium-heavy) but never heavy oil, and you could only have one Lane 1 ball, what would be your ball of choice? Tsunami? Colbolt? Other?

Brick,
Hammer High Rev seems to do the trick for me, same as its predecessor (3D Hammer).  This ball is so consistent at the breakpoint; it only fizzles out when the lanes become too dry or the Exxon Valdez gushes by.  Hit is superior and the read is most dependable.  In other words: just what the doctor ordered for your bowling needs.
Regards,
BowlingWolf

Even though this is a Lane 1 post...I'm going with the Tropical Storm...but in the Lane 1 Lineup it would be the Super Carbide Bomb..worked well for me on the conditions you named.

I'd have to go with the Carbide Plus. Surface can be adjusted very easily to accomodate the different amounts of oil. =:^D

I've only purchased one lane1 ball and it was the tsunami drilled it like lane1 said it was absolute worthless had it redrilled still worthless. It's the highest priced single pin spare ball that I own in fact its the highest price ball that I own. I guess me and lane1 just don,t match up well I'm not bad mouthing them
