First of all, the reason for the length, is due to the pin placement. Putting the pin above the fingers almost always promotes length. Secondly, with the axis rotation of almost 90 degrees, that means you are really getting around the side of the ball, which also promotes length. It really does not matter what ball you put in your hands, just those 2 things are going to cause a ball to push longer than you may want it to. And, in this case, being that you are on a heavier condition, you are asking for alot of problems. If it were me, I would try a different ball that is more suited for the oilier conditions. That Inferno, the way it is drilled and the way you throw the ball, is nothing but a ball to open up the lane once a track has developed on whichever side you bowl on. Another thing I would do, is consider placing the pin below the fingers. That will usually help the ball stand up sooner depending on where your axis point is. The balls hook potential is ALWAYS based on the layout of the drilling in reference to the axis point. That is why that ball may have been a big hooker for Can you Rev, but not for you. I would bet you that if I threw the ball, it would hook out of the building because I am a high rev player and pretty much up the back of the ball. High track players promote an earlier breakpoint and a low track player, or spinner, have very difficult time getting hook on oilier conditions, because they promote length. I hope this gives you a better understanding to your problem. If not, let us know.
