medium oil hook ball
« on: April 08, 2004, 05:45:35 AM »
Hi everyone, I'm in the process of getting a new bowling ball. Looking for suggestions from everyone on which one will hook the MOST on medium oiled lanes. Suggestions from any ball manufacturer is welcomed. Please list your favorites!

I would consider myself a medium speed, medium rev player with forward to medium side rotation. I usually don't have trouble hooking the ball the first few games because I can put more rotation in the ball. However, I tend to bowl 15 games a night, and it's just taking up too much energy. So i'm looking for a ball that will help me do the hooking more.

Oh yea, one more thing I forgot to mention. I would like to stick with pearl reactive resin, nothing particle (looking for longevity)

hey, about the X-factor vs. Triple-X. I know the x-factor has been around for awhile and it's been tried-and-proven. But i'm kinda reluctant to get the X-factor so early because I've heard that the coverstock won't hold up as long. As I've mentioned earlier, I bowl close to 15 games a night...maybe twice a week.

Yea, definitely X-Factor, Triple X, Crunch Time would be good, as would the Silver Streak Pearl or the Apocalypse.  I have a 16lb. Hex available, one drill, fully plugged, that I could let go to you.  Good ball, I just don't have a use for it.  Specs are almost EXACT (if not exact) to the Crunch Time.
