what is available, from Lane #1?
« on: March 09, 2005, 03:06:51 AM »
that fits between my U-Pearl and my Bullet?  The U-Pearl is way too strong when it hits the dry and the Bullet isn't quite enough (unless I just point it up and hope to carry the corners).  I've been making do with a Super Carbide Bomb; it reads the mids well and doesn't over react on the dry, but I'd like to give it a go with something a little less strong.  Should I be looking at the U-Solid? Something else?  (I may have missed the boat in not getting the XXL, but miss it I did).  From what I've read the Emerald would give me the same problem as the U-Pearl, right?  Basically I'd like to cover fewer boards than the SCB, but maybe a few more than the Bullet, or at least a little more carry than the Bullet.

Guys, what I'm bowling on is pretty heavy oil for 40 feet then flying, double stripped back ends.  The SCB handles the oil very well and just doesn't over react on the dry - but it gets me further left on the approach than I want to be (5 boards +/- from the return on the even nos.).  I am NOT bowling on dry by any means.



Then you can use a Solid Uranium in this condition and play less deep as compared to the SCB or you can get an HDB and stay in your comfort zone. Both the Solid Uranium and HDB are smooth balls.

I have had most of the saws except the Dirty bombs. But i can tell you the XL is truly a awesome med to dry lane ball. But don't think it wont turn the corner it is strong. I think it is 1 of the best balls they have made next to the emerald and Unranium.
