While particle pearls can help with the carrydown area, avabob is also right in that you still need them to clear the heads/midlane where you were playing with your pearl or solid. On the other hand, if you polish the particle pearl too much or it is polished already, it may not handle as much carrydown as there is.
A 4000 grit dull ball (solid or pearl) is usually close enough in length to a polished ball to enable you to play a similar line to the polished ball, and it will handle more carrydown than the polished ball.
Alternatives are to use a duller milder ball to get it to begin hooking before you hit the carrydown or to use a ball to enable you to go around the carrydown area.
