Recommend a new ball for me please!!!
« on: August 17, 2004, 03:30:34 PM »
I like a smooth, controllable, even-arcing ball, with a strong midlane, and a continuous backend.  I bowl on ProAnvil Synthetics with a 40 foot tophat pattern.

I have a Vendetta Particle ball that I have shot very well with, but since I have around 300 games on it, I am ready for something else.  It is a very very controllable, even-arcing ball.  So is there anything else out there that would mimic my Vendetta Particle's reaction.  I thought about buying another, but I would like to explore other companies if possible.  I am open to any ball company including smaller ones including (but not limited to) Lane Masters, Roto-Grip, and Visionary.

Thanks in advance.

Last week I got a Freak-A-Zoid that I want to use as my house shot ball. This has the Morepheus core revolved 360 degrees. Drilled for a fairly strong midlane read. Bowled on Proanvil on a slightly used house pattern with carrydown. Just rolling up the back of the ball this thing still had snap left! Way better than I thought it would. Threw it in box condition. This has got to be a great house ball. I'll bet it will work good on Patterns A & D also. Gave a great read, knew right away when I had to move a little. You'll like this.

How about a Lane 1 Solid Uranium. This ball has a very strong midlane roll with a smooth continous backend. This may be the best reactive ball on the market. =:^D
