I've been looking at the LF website and not much info is given to some of the balls. Off the chain, is that a solid or particle? it just gives the name of the shell, Proton. Or the Exodus, Super Micro X1. Im guessing it's a particle because of the word "micro".??

for any questions regarding lord field balls you can email Tony Martin. I know you can get him at staff@lfbowling.com ... I don't wanna give you an answer cause im new to lf and im still learning the products.

Will do....thanks..

A lot of Low RG Med Diff Particle balls, they will be good for tourneys. Some will like the balls on THS, others will throw them in the trash. If you want to cover a lot of boards, you may want to look elsewhere. If you are a straighter player then the balls will help to get rolling. Just depends on your game.

I prefer to keep things close to a staighter line and smoother off the spot. Though I have those core/covers that tend to be flippy, I'd rather have something thats more controllable. That's why I was looking into LF/LM after seeing some vids and on the lanes.

XRAYJAY,

Traditionally, all symmetrical core balls will be smoother for the more direct use you desire and just the opposite in assymmetrical designs.  I have been a long term user of all the LM balls new and old and they are what you want if you want what you describe.

+1 with Pat. I have a couple of them that I'm drilling up to get a good idea, but I've seen a few in action and they some what impress me.

What LF or LM balls would you recommend for a decent 2 or 3 ball bag? 39' medium/light volume on SPL surface... Thnx

I basically bowl on that same type of surface/length.  I currently use a 4000 polished Lane Masters "Perfect" as my benchmark, it is drilled 70 x 4-3/4 x 35, a 4000 polished Lord Field "Judgement" drilled 45 x 4 x 30, and a Lord Field "Burning Up" (their urethane offering) when its a little drier, it is drilled like my "Perfect" (70 x 4-3/4 x 35).

That is all I have been using all season. As of late I have been working with a highly polished (hit with a used 4000 abralon pad) Lord Field "Get Some" drilled 45 x 4 x 30 and shot 784 last friday in league with games of 279-257-248.

Another popular ball I drill alot for people in the Lord Field family is the "Torment".  The ball would make an excellent benchmark ball for most people and conditions based on it's ability to cover a wide variety of lane conditions for dry(with an appropriate amount of polish) to med-heavy (with 1000/2000/4000 abralon or saiir adjustment).  I also drill up alot of LM "Perfect's" for people as well.

The Judgement is crazy good! All the stuff last a long time and a love the fact that they are basically the only company that offers particle coverstocks. I don't have a Torment, but plan on getting one, because I've heard nothing but great comments on this ball. Listen to Pat he's a senior Lane Master/Lord Field staffer and knows the stuff! I love the Black Diamond from Lane Masters/Legends and it's still going strong!
