I need some advice
« on: September 08, 2008, 12:34:07 PM »
I'm looking at getting two bowling balls for league. I want a control type ball for medium conditions and ball that goes longer than my control ball but with more back end so I can have a different look.

Lane conditions are as follows: Synthetic lanes, oiled 10 to 10, 37 feet buffed to 40. The pro shop guy says its extremely easy. This will be my third league but my first sanctioned one. I average 194 my first league, 197 my second one. Bowling stats are in my profile. I've thrown mostly Hammer and Track so its time to try some other companies. I have a BWP, BWS, and a Voodoo but I'm moving up to 15 lbs so I don't need them anymore. My pro shop guy really didn't have a preference for me so I figured I would ask on here hoping to get some advice.

Bowling balls I'm thinking about getting.

Ebonite Gamebreaker and Playmaker.
Storm   Rapid Fire  and Rapid Fire Pearl
Bruns   TF Solid    and TF Pearl.

The Rival or Sidewinder would be great options for your control ball on Medium-ish conditions.  Assuming you want the longer ball for roughly the same conditons, there's quite a few options including a Smash Zone, Twisted Fury, Momentum, Playmaker, Rapid Fire Solid or Pearl, and Gravity Shift.  Personally, I'd go for the Sidewinder and Rapid Fire Solid.

Add the Visionary Gladiator (solid) and the Gladiator Pearl.

There is no better 1-2 combination in bowling right now. There are some as good, but none better, for what you have described.

Other great combinations:

Roto-Grip Grand Illusion and Illusion
LaneMasters XS Power and Sure Strike
Storm T-Road solid and T-Road Pearl
AMF Code and NightHawk Pearl
Brunswick Copperhead and Swarm
