roto ultra sonic pin an inch and half up from the ring finger and cg out slightly with a weight hole, also my silver diamond playing a swing shot from 3-4 th arrow. Yes JDT i can hook a ball from 3-4 th arrow, why not join the thursday scratch league at south coast and find out if i am handless like you say i am.

That's exactly what I'm getting Pincrusher. Which color do you have?

Without a doubt, the best dry lane ball (for me of course) is Visionary's Slate Blue Gargoyle.

Columbia superflex covers are generally great on the light oil to dry range. Any sort of medium oil they tend to slide too far (my experience).  

for light oil = Columbia Super Trooper (4.5X3.0)(can be used up to medium but not beyond)
for very light to dry = Columbia Scout Reactive (5.5X5.5)

strikestriketapped-
I'm usually a Hammer fan but the light oil Hammer ball was too reactive, so I got this ball. I have friends that have the yellow/green one, and the purple/red one. I own the Blue/Yellow one and I couldn't tell you all the compliments I have got. The yellow/green ball smells pretty nice, but it shows WAY!!!!! to much dirt. The purple/red one smells good but looks like any other ball. My Blue/Yellow one smells great! (and sticks out) I use to think The One ball was the best looking ball but I was wrong, it's the Tropical Storm Blue/Yellow. Every time I go to the Bowling Alley people want to smell my ball! It doesn't show dirt or scratches that often either
If you want to know more about the ball just ask....
(P.S- It hits very nicely and has good carry) I bowled 289 with the ball too!
