Get a Hammer Scandal for heavy oil.
Because it's seriously the best ball out there at the moment. It has the most hook out of all the balls out there. Only ball that can compete with it is apparently DV8 Grudge.
And besides, nothing hits like a hammer. Which is very true, there's something special about the Hammer balls' punch. I often get some odd strikes, that wouldn't be a strike with the other balls I've tried.
Don't ditch it because it's not an asymmetric ball. It's just bs that symetric balls can't hook more than asym balls.
Hammer proves to people who spout that bullshit with the Scandal.
And the ball has a 3 year warranty, which is the best warranty on the market.
Storm has a only 1 year warranty on their balls, and others have 2 years. Most of Hammer's balls have 3 now.
I'm gonna try not to dis other companies, but I wouldn't buy a Storm or Roto Grip.
The only ball out of their new released that I've read mostly good reviews about is the Alpha Crux.
I'm very sure the Scandal is better though.
I'm hooked(pun intented) on Hammer atm.
So for medium oil:
Arson High Flare Solid or Arson High Flare (because it looks cooler xD)
Light oil:
The new Viral Hybrid
Don't bother getting a polyester spare ball. If you were thinking about it. Unless you can throw the balls straight towards the left over pins.
I couldn't, so now I'm using my Scandal for sparing too.
I'll probably get a second Scandal for the next season, and use the old one on the alley where the lanes are shit, and the new one for the lanes where they oil it before every match and every practice.
And one lower performance ball, incase the lane dries up a lot. I'll probably get the Arson High Flare, unless something new and great comes from them.
