Hello,
I know this is probably something that everyone will have different opinions on, but I haven't bowled in several years and am looking at purchasing a new ball.
I currently have a Cuda/C and a Combat Zone (CZ). Both work well, but I am looking for something with a little more hook. The house I bowl at recently changed to 38 feet oil (from 35), and both balls seem to struggle coming back. I can throw the Cuda at the 2nd arrow from the 22nd or so dot, and I can throw the CZ from about 25 to the second arrow as well. The balls seem to be sliding by, but hitting the pocket. I throw right handed, and I don't know how much I drift.
I don't put a lot of speed on the ball (about 15-16 mph) and I don't think I crank it. I try to keep everything simple.
I can throw the first and second arrows with no problems, but if I go deeper, the ball doesn't return.
It has been a very long time since I purchased a ball and with all of the varieties to choose from, how does one begin searching?
I would like medium to oily lane conditions and I want to try throwing deeper inside (I want to be able to play all lines).
Thanks for any suggestions.
