Alright, first to DWilliamson:
It is most definently not the ball, and rarely is, the current arsenal I have now is really fine, though it may be missing a few things, it seems to be good.
To Sr: Just to talk about the trick shots, I don't use those very often, mainly for splits and 10-pins, but not for Much else especially my strike ball. Actually they really are good for splits, my conversion rate has gone up since I started doing this...
To Michigan: Hmm, well at Crown and King Pin (Two of the three), I have bowled great there every time I have been there before, really that shouldn't be the problem, as for the other place, I really don't like that place, the time I went before, there shot was rediculously hard...
To Greg: You know,about the benchmark ball, that is what I have been thinking, and my trauma ER was originally for that, but seems to be at an unrevivable stage, tried everything. My phase 2, to your surprise since you have never seen it, actually works very well for the control/readibility; it's controllable and very predictabgle, but really hates too much oil, works well on medium to med-dry conditions best. I was thinking about that atomic charge though, looks perfect...
And your second issue, actually for the last two months I have lowered my revs very significantly...now let me say, I use to really crank the ball up alot, I think partially becuase it looked cool and becuase thats what I had gotten used to it, and never though of changing it...until about september. And I have a few reasons for doing this:
1. When I was cranking the ball, accuracy was not really a problem, therefore I was not improving on it much, which would be a big problem later in life. And the reason for this is that in my experience and from watching others, cranking the ball and getting that big sexy hook does not require nearly as much accuracy as someone who only hooks it 5-8 boards. This is mainly why...
2. I also wanted to gently increase my speed, which I did, though like I said, not drastically, I feel this would help, though I can't remember why at this moment.
I hope that helps...
