I agree with Only Buzzsaw on the Golden Nugget. The Uranium isn't out yet, so no one knows for sure how it will work. I do have one ordered. Out of the balls I currently own, the Golden Nugget is always the first ball out of my bag. It is a very versatile ball and covers a wide of conditions for me and is one of the strongest balls on the backend I have ever had. I'm not going to say it won't, but I have never had any problem with "rollout" on the Nugget as most other brands of balls do when the lanes breakdown and dry out.

I'd say the black cherry. From reports I've heard I'd say the Uranium is going to be very close to the highly praised Blueberry which is great for medium oil. The GN is closest in reaction to the Pearl Carbide from the past ball list. If you throw with a lot of speed, as you say, I'd recommend the BCB with maybe a stacked drilling. Talk to Doug Sterner or Drillwizard to know for sure, but that would be my recommendation. If you decide you like whichever one you choose, you may want to build an arsenal somewhat like this. Dry laneXL medium: Uranium: medium/Heavy: Golden Nugget Heavy:Black Cherry.

i loooooooove my black cherry bomb, best ball i have ever thrown. i love watching it trash the pins.
--------------------
i don't care who makes it, how much it costs, or how sexy the ball looks. does it carry the 7 and level the deck? did i just beat you? aren't i clearing the heads with my $60 ball?

bring on the Lefty uprising!

well, bigjohn, we'll need to see a little more info in your bio for one . . .

next, we'll need a pic of you, your wife (clothing optional), and your girlfriend (clothing not allowed) . . .

you have to promise to love, honor and cherish your buzzsaw, through good times and bad, for better or worse, in burned heads and carrydown, so long as you both shall live . . .

we'll put you up for a vote, and if you're on 75% of the ballots (like the baseball hall of fame), you may buy your lane #1 ball!!!

you seem like a nice guy, so i hope all goes well for you . . . and hurry up with the girlfriend pics!!!!

Hey Bad Shot, that Jack Daniels is my favorite. Even went thru the Jack Daniels Distillery (hic, excuse me...lol) while on vacation and passing thru Tennessee a few years ago.

that's one of the best tours i've been on, and the distillery site is absolutely beautiful!!  was their new welcome center open when you went through?  it's really nice . . .

also, can you imagine how many millions of dollars of whiskey there are in those big "barns" all over that property?!?!?  (and it STILL isn't enough, big john!!!)

Agree with BH, and my selection for a ball would be the GN or BCB!!

Do as Buzzhead said or if you already know your specs like I do mine, then you can just send Doug Sterner your specs only, with out your ball.
