Am I the only one...
« on: February 13, 2015, 12:14:24 AM »
Who doesn't want to throw high performance equipment? I subbed on a league tonight on drier wood lanes, and I swear 3/4 people were throwing high performance equipment, and I realized that I may be the only person in my county without a Crux. I started out throwing my Misfit pearl, and never second guessed my choice the whole night. A lot of people were having a problem with their equipment hitting soft, but my ball slammed the pocket all night as long as I got my ball outside the 10 board at the breakpoint. If I tucked the ball inside, it skidded too far before hooking. Don't get me wrong, I own a mastermind, and it is a fantastic ball, but I almost never throw it. And it has never been the first ball out of my bag like a lot of people are with their high performance stuff.

Asyms spin up quickly. Most THS do not have the head oil to support HP releases with strong covers and heavy rolling asym cores. It isnt until oil is applied that you see major differences in your equipment.
But on you avg THS, any symmetrical mild covered ball with surface adjustments will do.

I agree with KidLost,

 I have gone to mostly symmetric equipment and switched on our strong side to side wet dry THS to some pin downs also.

I am starting to really get some area and carry.
Particularly I like moving inside deeper to soften the explosion off the harsh dry!
