It's that  time again, time to play around with the ball selection

Ok, here's the problem i'm runnin into.... i'm going to give my Ninja RPM to my brother because i just don't like what i'm getting from it as of late with the changes to my game and i know he will benefit from having something between his power diesel and white dot.

Now to my problem, what ball should i replace this with? I want something that will be a smooth step down from my inferno but a step up from my Swirl. I think i want a solid ball and more of an arcing reaction but i'm open to all suggestions. Also, i'd like to stay in the mid price category with this purchase something along the lines of a Silver Streak drilled similar to the Inferno sound good? All imput greatly appreciated.

I've seen all the great advice given and recieved on this site. I only hope some volunteer some ideas for me. Kepp up the great site guys!!!

Maybe a Monster Frenzy would do the trick for you? If you want more backend I would suggest a Thing.

I'm inclined to recommend a Bruiser or a Vendetta Black. The Hyde is also a potential alternative. They are a notch down in oil handling from a V2 sanded and are more even than a stock Silver Streak.

I wish Visionary would make the old Blue Warlock, Columbia bring back the solid resin Beast and Brunswick make a solid PK 17, like the Sapphire Zone or Parker Bohn MVP. We really needs balls like that STILL, AGAIN.

Sigh ...

I second the Monster Bruiser.  The more I see of it, the more I like of it.

thancks for the responses guys. The only thing i'd like to add is that i use my inferno on basic mediums that aren't too long and without carrydown, i want something that will be smooth like the inferno, as in not too jumpy if it finds dry (drilling in profile), but i'd like my new ball to go a bit longer and turn a bit harder.

Would you all keep the suggestions you have or does this added info change anything?

Shotmaker, i'd like to stay a bit lower priced than the Thing, any other suggestions?
