Title: Arsenal help
Post by: leftyinsnellville on June 06, 2008, 08:40:50 AM
My coach tells me I have too many balls.  I guess he has a point. I'm trying to decide which balls I should keep for the upcoming season.  I'm a stroker with medium revs and medium speed.  I throw 15 lb. balls and try to play down-and-in, if possible, on the theory that the less my ball has to do the more likely I can repeat the shot.  I rarely see dry lanes, and the oil tends to stay longer on the left side of the lane, thus you'll see I have mostly aggressive equipment.

Here are the balls I've drilled up so far:

Columbia 300 Reaction Arc - surface prepped with green scotchbright

Brusnwick Fury - surface oob

Columbia 300 Action Max - surface oob

Hammer Black Widow - surface 2000 abralon
  http://www.putfile.com/pic/8264505

Columbia 300 Action Packed - surface oob
  http://www.putfile.com/pic/8264504

Columbia 300 The Professional

Here are the balls that are at the proshop getting drilled:

Columbia 300 Reaction Roll (16 lbs.)
Columbia 300 Icon
Legends/Lanemasters Yeah Baby
Legends Lanemasters Sure Strike

I also just picked up a used Track Mean Machine and a Bruswick Red Zone, and I still have a used Terminator that I'll pull out on occassion (rolls a little earlier for my taste, but sometimes that's a good thing.)

If you wree going to thin out the herd a little, what would you get rid of and why?  All input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Those are the keepers or the ones you'd toss?

If you are really going to thin things out I agree but I personally see nothing wrong with having a lot of balls. As long as they all give you different looks. If you have balls that are similar than get rid of one. I personally have 12 balls that all give me different looks so it is ok.
