If you could bring 2 LM balls to Vegas...

What would they be ?

I was thinking NS2 for team and maybe my black pearl or XS Power for doubles/Singles..

I brought the BK sanded to 4000 Abralon last year. It was far too much ball.

Unless you have firm ball speed OR you choose some polish, I'd opt for a strongish resin like the XS Power or the Terminator Rebellion, of the current crop. Of course, a lot depends on the bowler's release, ball speed and drilling, as per usual.

This is fresh in my mind because I practiced on a Nationals-like shot this morning and a matte finish resin solid was just fine.

On Sgls/Dbls, you have to be prepared to see almost anything from a nice continuation of the team shot to drastic dry to a very spotty shot. I'd bring at least a mild pearl and polished, mild drilled solid or a medium pearl.

I'd bring XS Power and Buzz.

I used the Black Pearl last year second shift of singles/doubles and it was too much ball. It was great for team event though.

I'll be taking the only 2 Lane Masters balls I have, the Sure Strike
and Black Pearl.  If they don't cut it, then I guess I'm in trouble???
