Ball Upgrade?
« on: November 27, 2007, 04:17:08 PM »
To start, I'm more of a "tweener" I start more to the right (ride the gutter) and go down and in. My speed is around 17-18 and my rev rate is around 300.

Lately I haven't been getting enough backend, and have been coming up short of the pocket. So I canged my approach and started throwing closer to the 2-3 arrow. Which has brought my average down quite significantly. I throw a Raw Hammer Doom right now, and it's been great for the most part, but it just isn't hitting or hocking enough for me.

I need something that can give me a stronger backend and that hits like a truck. Money isn't to much of an issue and i'm willing to buy used, so any suggestions would be VERY helpfull.

Thanks!!!

I vote Vapor Zone or Blast Zone. Both are keepers.

My Black Widow Pearl works great for that kinda shot if you wanna stay with Hammer. But that's on a THS with medium oil, not exactly sure what you're bowling on. I throw the ball just a touch slower than you do and I swing mine out to the gutter and it comes back.

Storm Shift.  I play a tighter inside line & w/pin up I get length & backend the smashes the pocket.  That's just me though.  Spitfire was Norm Duke used last year on that outside line.  He did pretty good w/it, for not bowling half the year.

Just grip it & rip it!

I think I'm leaning towards getting the Vapor Zone. Although I like the Fury Pearl alot to.

Thanks alot for the suggestions!!!

If anyone has either of these balls used, please let me know.

I'm still open to suggestions.

Thanks again!!!

I throw the ball very similar to you and bought the vapor zone a month ago and I have been nothing but pleased.  This ball is very versatile and very strong, I think it would be a good fit for your game.
