What's the AP2 all about?
« on: February 13, 2007, 02:55:49 AM »
I've had someone approach me about a possible trade that would bring an AP2 into my possession. I've never thrown Legends/LM, so I really don't know too much about this ball.

In general, on what conditions should this ball shine? What type of read should be expected, early or late? Is this ball all about control, or does it offer some flip on the backend? Any help you guys and gals can provide will be helpful. I want to make an informed decision here.

In case you need it, here are some of my specs:

RH
Fairly versatile: can rev it up hard and circle the lane or square up and play up the boards
Generally look to play around 2nd or 3rd arrow with a light belly.
Speed 17-18 mph
High track
My house conditions are generally medium, but I bowl a lot of tourneys, so I see a bit of everything

Let me know your thoughts. Thanks!

Early roll for the most part Gene.  Looking for an oiler AP2 is a decent one.  Needs heavy head oil.....kind of like a Vis. Midnight Scorcher.  Mostly a control piece IMO played straighter on heavy oil.  Least that's the way I'd use one.  Never owned one but have seen some used and rolled.
