Dynamo too much ball for me
« on: March 10, 2009, 04:45:56 PM »
Usually if a ball hooks too much for me it rolls out/burns up.  The continuation of the Dnamo once the back ends start to dry up is way too much ball for me.  I know I could adjust the surface, but that would defeat the purpose of me getting the ball.  I'm bowling on lanes that are oiled in the morning, hardly any use, then they re-oil a fill shot that makes the first game very difficult.  Using the Dynamo for the first game and a half works great.  I need to learn how and how fast to move left and swing the ball.  It seems the more i swing the ball, the harder it comes back.  I need to find a way to use the Dynamo and change to the Agent Orange at the right time.  I was close today but i still didn't put the ball up fast enough.  If i can follow the oil left for a longer time, I'll shoot great numbers with this ball.  But both times out, my first game was very good and midway through the second game, I was struggling.  Yes its me, not the ball.  But the power, carry and ability to handle oil is just what I thought the Buzzbomb would do.

I'll post again, not to bore you, but to let you know if I can put it together with the dynamo or the Dynamo, Agent Orange combination.

Why don't you redrill the Dynamo for tamer backend reaction? Move the pin farther away from your pap and that should help quite a bit.

Or add a flare-decreasing weight hole? That should also tame down the overall reaction a bit.

You do know that the surface is at 1000 abralon right? Try 2000 abralon...

You did remember to put some soothing bubble bath in before soaking the ball, right?  If not, there's your problem.  Lane 1 balls are obviously female (diamond core, cost more, high maintenance, etc.)  therefore, if the bath was not to her liking, she probably got so mad at you she cracked her shell.  It's the bowling ball way of busting that throbbing vessel in her forehead...

I sanded mine at 4000 with the track and applied magic shine. The ball is still really strong but very versatile. I can often use it all 3 games just by making hand adjustments. But when it gets too strong I go to my weak drilled BuzzBOMB/R they compliment each other well.

Thank you for the feedback.  The surface it is at 1000 because that is what the person who sent me the ball put on it before shipping me the ball.  I'm not sure if its 1000 from the factory or 4000 from the factory but I do know this ball has the surface at 1000 Ablaron.

I could plug and re-drill, just plug the balance hole and move or try surface adjustments.  But if I can get this ball at least through the first game before the lanes start opening up, It will help tremendously until I get a better feel to follow the oil line as it moves.  I might take it up to 4000 and just open with my Virtual Gravity next time to see if I can use the Dynamo longer.

Thanks again for the recommendations,

I thought someone already put the nail in the coffin already.

Dynamo OOB is 4000k

Based on the lane shine seen after 6 games, it has to be 4000 OOB.

Sounds as though you like the movement of this ball. If the ball is hooking too much at times, why not get another one and polish it up..? That would be a nice 1-2 combination. They do roll very sweet polished up and are very versatile as stated above. Just a thought. =:^D

I did not get it out of box.  Whether it came at 4000 or 1000, it was put to 1000  before I threw it.

I'm thinking of going with the Dynamo at 1000, (2) Agent Oranges, Rogue Cell, Hot Sauce, Grand Illusion and the Jolt solid. I just pulled out my Supernova XP and will see if I can use it somewhere.  

I might get a second Dynamo at a later time, but the Agent Oranges ar going to fit there nicely I believe.

Thanks again,

[sarcasm]Obviously your center didn't widen the lanes 5 boards like Richie so nicely asked.[sarcasm/]

Try a surface adjustment and see if that works.  If it doesn't, you might want to think about re-drilling like someone else said, with the pin farther away from your PAP to tame it down.

barry
I took mine to 4k with my track and hit it with some polish, even tho it is now shiney it is still one of the hardest hooking balls in my house, it will still perform admiriably on oil

I actually brought mine down to 2000 cause of my speed. Did a few practice games after that and am quite happy with the ball reaction. Will test it out tonight in the league.
