Suggest a Ball PLEASE!!!
« on: January 17, 2005, 07:55:32 AM »
I am looking for a new bowling ball.

Currently I have a 16lb AMF Whip. I am not unhappy with the ball, but really it isnt agressive enough for me. Unless I really slow down my approach and delivery, I will through it right past its hook point. If I slow down, I can get it to work reasonably well.

Recommend a ball thats more agressive for me. There are so many out there, I dont want to make a mistake.

Thanks!
Doc.

Try an original Brunswick Inferno. It's very versatile, covers a number of conditions and hits like a truck.

If you want to stay with AMF, go with a Maximum Velocity. Ball has a load of backend. If you want to venture into particle/pearl, I would recommend a Depth Charge. I have one that is very versatile, has a lot on the back and hits very hard. I also agree with Tony C with the Inferno.

Perhaps, I should mention that I am a leftie. Make any difference? Thanks for all the replies. I use a 16lb now as well.

I guess if you are looking for something with decent oil handling capacity, going with a Rule isn't a bad choice. If you like AMF, something like a TNT may be more to your liking. I guess another suggestion is to go to your local pro shop, have the driller see your style and make some recommendations from there. It never hurts to have a second opinion that bowls on the same lanes you do to see what would work best.

I suggest a polished rule, that will get you some length, and a strong back end reaction.
