'08-'09 Arsenal.. Opinions?
« on: September 06, 2008, 08:47:50 AM »
Hey everyone, just wondering if I can get some opinions on my arsenal here, and see what exactly else I need.

List goes from weakest to strongest. (least oil handling to strongest oil handling)

Lane #1 XXXL *
Hammer Razyr - basic drill *
Hammer Emerald Vibe - 5 3/4 x 5, pin up. *
Hammer Blue Vibe - Rico *
Hammer Raw Hammer Doom - 5 x 4 1/4, pin up.
Hammer Raw Hammer Pyscho - changing layout to something pin under.

Any suggestions, comments? Anything is welcome. I've pretty much gone to all Hammer, so a Hammer suggestion would be best.

* = current league only balls. Doom and Pyscho are too strong.

Thanks!

Maybe a stronger solid to go above the psycho?

The Anger is still available ... AFAIK. Not sure if you'll need it, though.

Can you use the Psycho on a pattern like the Chameleon or the Shark?

los2003, the Razyr is placed more towards the top of my list, so it's weaker than my Emerald.

charlest, i'm unsure on what patterns I can use my Pyscho on, but I do know that this ball is STRONG, and revs nice and early for me.

Thanks for the suggestions, though! I may look for an Anger, although it will be unusable, and only for tournaments. Haha.

Thanks!

FastTracker33,,
With your rev rate, your ball options are limited. They can be expanded to a certain degree by drillings and surface changes, but you still have a smaller range of options, as do many of us with avg rev rates but who bowl on lighter oil patterns. It does make life interesting, though, and that's the important part.

Thanks for the comment charlest. What you said is definitely understandable. The Pyscho isn't supposed to be uncontrollable, I thought lol. I can literally throw the Pyscho 5-6 frames, then i'll end up having to move so far left to try and find any oil at all. It sucks having 15mph ball speed and 250-300 rev rate :/ lol.
