Need Help Choosing a L1 Ball..
« on: January 23, 2005, 04:38:24 AM »
I recently won any one L1 ball I desire, and need help choosing something.
I have this in my arsenal currently:
C300 Messenger Ti Pearl : Most predictable ball I own. Love it. Decent on fresh, best for 3-4th game.
C300 Wicked : 1st out of bag, getting a bit spotty for me. Doesn't really grab in oil, great for fresh
AMF Scamp : Dry-ish lane ball.  Late games, it shines.

I'm looking for something that's really goana dig through oil when tyring to play out of the tract.  I was thinking the Dirty or Cherry Bomb??

Any and All Suggestions are great appreciated.

Both of those are pearls (neither is going to "dig through oil") the dirtys cover is slightly stronger but neither is for more than medium oil, between just those two the dirty is smoother and the cherry bomb hooks a lot more on the backend but is more jerky than the dirty bomb.  If you want something for oil get the new hybrid, the black cherry or the solid uranium, if you need more details on any of these please PM me.

The black cherry bomb would be a decent choice.
Of course if you're looking for the STRONGEST oiler out there by anybody, get the Super Carbide Bomb.

Agreed with the rest, the Solid Uranium will handle more
oil, but not extreme heavy oil. From my experience using
both the Black Cherry and Solid Uranium, the Solid Uranium
seems to handle oily lanes better. I do not know anything yet
about the new hybrid dirty bomb.
