Green/Blue Centaur.

He also has 14 and 16# available.

Great ball for lighter and light medium.  This is one of the balls I take everywhere.

Along with the Blue/Green Centaur, I would add the Purple Ice Executioner and possibly the Blue Sparkle Gryphon to the list.

Both very hard to come by depending on the weights.  I think I have the last one that Visionary had in 15lb!!

If you want a weak particle, try Lane Masters Counter-Strike.

Lane #1 Chainsaw has the market cornered on weak resin right now. It's in a totally different category from everything else.

Most of the other stuff I would suggest is discontinued. The Blue/Green Centaur is the exception to that (I think it's still made). If you can find an AMF Heist Pearl, it would be a good choice. You can still find them on eBay but they were not released in wide circulation in the first place and your AMF dealer is unlikely to have them.

Beyond those, here are a few oldies you might still be able to find NIB somewhere: Ebonite Matrix Conquest, Track Threat (particle pearl), Banger Hole Finder Pearl, Dyno-Thane Cure Pearl.

It will be hard to find, but the old V2 Dry is a particle pearl...and my go to ball when nothing else will work


I never understood why Ebonite felt compelled to add particles to a dry lane ball...Oh well, if it works, it works.
