Don't know what to pick
« on: September 15, 2009, 10:56:40 PM »
Hey guys...
 As of late I've been looking to replace my Emerald Vibe thats 14lbs.
Could you guys suggest some equipment that would be as weak or weaker than that? Preferably for light oil, I bowl HS and when in tourneys, it gets dry quick!
I'm a 200 average bowler, I was the kid that shot the 298 back in January.
But I talked to a guy in the proshop and he recommened either a Ebonite Bash or Freeze...what are you suggestions?

As of right now, I have
MoRich LevRG
Columbia Rival
White Dot Plastic
Storm Domination
Emerald Vibe

And a few in the pro shop
Storm Atomic Charge
Storm Eraser

if you want to go weaker than i would say a hammer razyr you could adjust the cover as needed, great ball for light to dry lanes.

An entry level ball would IMO make sense, e.g. a Tropical Storm or a Power Groove. Razyr is also an option, or a Tornado. Maybe one of the Avalanches, too.

If you like your LevRg you may want to consider a MOjave.  It has a very similar core but much weaker cover.  I keep mine OOB finish and am able to play on house shots and very dry lanes.  I have not had any issues with carry either.

My boss, and coach, from Ten in The Pit Proshop talked about a lowgrade ball like the few he listed were the rayzr, an avalanche, or any of the boom, clash, bash, and smash. I talked to him about the Bash and thats what I went with...hes gonna drill it with pin at 12 oclock so the ball goes quite long but is very smooth coming back...thanks for all the suggestions though guys, they were greatly appreciated.

Look into a Global 900 Link, Roto Grip Neptune or Roto Mars, they are weaker than the Vibe.

Urethane would help, or an old dead reactive or particle.
