Lower diff equipment can work for bowlers with lower rev rates, but you do need to be aware of their limitations in that situation. Often a lower diff ball with surface works, a shiny or really clean surface with lower diff will squirt or boomerang.
I often start with a lower diff ball on fresh, hooking conditions where I don't want a really strong reaction. If I can find something that carries for me, I start with it, knowing that as soon as I start seeing flat corners or blower corners, I may need to go to a stronger core in order to follow the pattern breakdown and continue to carry. Sometimes you can slowly chase a pattern in with that lower diff, sometimes it just won't work, and it is up to you to make that decision. Generally I try to keep lower diff equipment in front of me as much as possible so that it doesn't have to shape as much before it gets to the pocket.
