I'd liek to know what ball you're using, what the drilling is and what the surface is. Your problem sounds like whatever ball you're using is not reading the midlane early enough to drive thru the pocket strongly.
The solution migh tbe as simple as adding a bit of surface to the strongest ball you have right now. And, yes, there are probably several balls that will read the midlane earlier than what you have now. But you may not need a new one.
