I love my Fury. I use this as my benchmark ball and it covers a wide variety of conditions for me, from medium to medium-heavy. I know many people didn't like it, but this ball works great for my game. I wouldn't recommend it for true heavy oil, but it is a nice complimentary piece to have in your arsenal.

The original Fury works great for me on heavy oil. Have you had bad experiences with it?

I would normally recommend the LevRg hands down, but with his speed only 14-15 mph, even in heavy oil the LevRg may read a little too early. I would say to also look at the Black Widow Bite. It's a little higher rg (2.51) than the LevRg (2.48) and the Resurgence (2.47), so it will match up better to his game with his slower speed, or so it would seem. It is hard to say for sure without actually seeing him throw the ball, but that would be my suggestion. Good luck.

The LevRg is to good a ball to pass up,just adjust the cover.

Hey all, my friend is looking for a heavy oil ball, he throws about 14-15 mph. he wants the ball to read the mids early. Some balls that have been recommended to him are resurgence, Levrg, Demension. any others that you could recommended for him?
You want a true heavy oiler that will read early?

Drilling #1
If you do not have a positive axis, use this layout.
Ball Reaction: Long and Strong
Suitable for: Most Styles and Lines
Flare potential: Medium
Center of Gravity: The center of gravity placement may or may not fall inside the CG Area. If it doesn’t then the balance hole location may need to be adjusted.
Mass Bias Placement: Place Mass Bias 3 inches to the right of the thumb hole
If needed place balance hole 4 inches over and 1/2 inch up and drill back to statically legal.
Drilling #2
Ball Reaction: Long and Strong
Suitable for: Most Styles and Lines
Flare potential: Large
Pin Placement: Place Pin 4 1/2 inches from PAP
Center of Gravity: The center of gravity placement may or may not fall inside the CG Area. If it doesn’t then the balance hole location may need to be adjusted.
Mass Bias Placement: Place Mass Bias at a 45 degree angle to the right of the thumb hole. If needed place balance hole over on the Vertical Axis Line and 2 inches down and drill back to negative side weight. The bigger and deeper the hole is the more increased ball reaction. Remember to keep the ball statically legal.
This is a bunch of crap. If needed, place a balance hole xyz and drill it back to NEGATIVE side. How do you know if it's needed..? OMG
And you want to crap on Lane 1 people suggesting pin under CG out layouts..? WOW..!! =:^D

quote:Bowlers with different PAP's are being suggested to place the MB 3" to the right of the thumb hole. Isn't that the same thing as what's being suggested by users on here who suggest placing the pin under the ring and kicking the CG out for any bowler without knowing their PAP..?
Place Mass Bias 3 inches to the right of the thumb hole
I think it is. So, maybe you should stop bashing users on here and start bashing Ebonite..!! =:^D

quote:Drilling #1 shows to put the pin over the bridge/fingers, for EVERYONE, so IT IS THE SAME..!! Why are you so blind..?
That is why they don't suggest a vague pin placement.
These are standard layouts (pin over bridge/pin under bridge/under ring finger with the CG kicked out) that DO WORK VERY WELL for MOST STYLES. Plus they're safe because they do work so well for most styles.
I'm not here to get in a argument with you, I'm just stating facts that somehow are mysteriously not seen by you. =:^D
