new lanes
« on: November 01, 2004, 01:27:40 AM »
bowling on brand new synthetic lanes,med-hvy oil,doesn't appear to have much carry down.Looking to find new ball to carry corner pins,playing outside leaves many 7 and 10s.Thinking about playing more in the middle with the oil,any suggestions?

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.

Put some surface on that Fear Factor thats the simplest way to put it I don't feel like typing anything else.
