Title: Strongest balls on the market
Post by: clemonsiii on August 06, 2015, 04:13:02 PM
What are the strongest balls on the market? I was using my Zero gravity on the new 47 foot scorpion and the ball didn't nothing.

According to Bowlers Journal International (BJI), the Radical Guru and Guru Master respectively have the highest hook potentials of any balls on the market. I'm a ball whore, and I've generally found BJI's reviews and ratings to be solid.
 
I have the Guru, and was very happy with how it handled 52' Badger. On the other hand, I haven't successfully used it on most other patterns. True heavy oilers need heavy oil, or they burn up and generally get squirrelly. 
 
Most companies offer balls that can handle the heavy stuff. No matter which one you choose, you have square up and play tighter. Nothing is going to go coast-to-coast on fresh flatter patterns.

One question I just thought of. How long have you bowled with your zero gravity? Have you had it resurfaced? If you haven't had it resurfaced in say 100 games I would highly suggest that. Next step after resurfacing would be to have the oil baked out of the ball if you've used it a lot

Clemonsiii, what are your stats - speed, rev rate...?

The new Scorpion is much longer than it used to be, but it's not a super heavy pattern.  I used med/strong equipment, but not my strongest unless I was very deep.  It's not like the old Scorpion however - there's no longer "free" hook.  No matter what you use you'll need to keep your angles tight unless you have a lot of hand.  The ball (in general) should never go outside of 12.  Think more roll, not hook.

What is the rating on the HYPER cell?

If I remember correctly, it is rated at 58.
