Title: Burnt to Dry?
Post by: justink on July 27, 2006, 10:37:13 AM

I have decided that my AP2 and NS2 handle the medium to heavy oil conditions well enough for now.

I am looking for a ball for burnt to dry conditions. I have tried polishing my Dynothane Thing Lives and it is just too much ball for those conditions. Any suggestions on the:

I will make this simple not the Buzz unless you are going to high gloss it and drill it weak.

The only possible answer is the new Straight Flush. There is nothing else that they have that will handle dry-ish lanes.

This is based on the proviso that burnt/dry implies that a resin ball is a true possibility. If not, then plastic/polyester is the answer; they have the Arrow.

Although we don't always agree,I am inclined to agree with Charlest here.

For those conditions, Galen of Legends/Lanemasters recommended a Straight Flush for myself. Here is what Galen wrote me.......

"On the dry patterns the Straight Flush will hook at least an arrow less than the Kong or The Buzz and I feel it will be best for your game. I would use a layout as follows: Keep the cg even with the ml and stack the pin with a 2” shift to the right and a 6- ¾ in weight hole to render legal if needed. The pin is not a big factor on this ball so I would go with around 1-1/2 to 2” with 2-1/2 to 3 on top."

Hope this helps.

I concur ... and I'd check with Galen on a layout recommendation.
