If this tournament existed....what 1 ball would you pick?
« on: July 11, 2011, 06:26:41 AM »
The tournament consists of bowling 5 days.  8 game blocks on 5 different patterns.  But you can only use 1 ball all 5 days as a strike ball and spare ball.  What ball would you choose?
 
Day 1 - 38 ft - THS
Day 2 - Shark
Day 3 - Cheetah
Day 4 - Viper
Day 5 - 42 ft THS
 
For me, probably the Ebonite Mission.  Playable on most conditions.

How many games per pair per block or better yet, how many players per pair.  Assuming 4 players per pair, I'll take my Brunswick Damage.  As the lanes break down each day, this ball will open up the lane in games 4-8 on all of these patterns from 5th & 6th arrow (except for the Cheetah) and allow me to make up any ground sacrificed while waiting for the track area to open up.  I don't think you want anything to strong or even in the middle of the road.  In other words, I'm better playing straight on the fresh than playing straight on the burn because my ball is hooking up at 15 feet.

Black Beauty or 5 star classic.

 

I can control a hard rubber bowling ball much easier than resin or urethane.


Almost all things are better when they come from Texas.Except maybe the USBC. LOL

Out of my current arsenal, probably the Onyx  Vibe. Either that or my Anomaly. I would definitely be changing the cover prep every day though.

Probably a
Brunswick Wild Thing
or the new Massive Damage,
Something middle of the road that can make for easy adjustments as the lanes change and not be to overly aggressive or too weak on any one condition. 


Be good, or be good at it.

I'd go with my Nomad Dagger.  It would be the most playable for me across the board, and as the lanes open up it would really be feasible.  Also, it would be really simple to make changes to the cover.

My arsenal

Heavy Oil: Storm Virtual Gravity Nano: 2000 AB
Medium-Heavy Oil: Storm Anarchy: 1500 polished
Medium Oil: Roto Grip Nomad Dagger: 1500 polished

Medium-Light Oil: Roto Grip Rising Star: 1500 polished

Probably the Ebonite Gamebreaker, but maybe a Mission

 Very good question. If it's just 4 players per lane I would go with my 505T because the oil shouldn't dry up too quickly unless they're all playing the exact line with aggressive equipment.
