COL SUPREME
« on: December 25, 2006, 02:52:06 AM »
This ball OOB is 1200 fine. What would happen if I sanded my sons down to 800? I realize that it will hook a little more for him, but at what cost? Basically we want a heav oil ball and I am thinking sanding the Supreme would give him that ball.

He got some money for Christmas and wants to buy a new ball. He has a RAMPAGE and the COl. SUPREME. Just not sure what to get him. Was thinking about the AWESOME FLIP, but not sure where that would fit in his arsenal that he has now.

Any and all help is appreciated.

BOWLING IS FUN NO MATTER WHAT YOU SCORE. BUT A 300 IS ALWAYS NICE.

STRIKE ZONE & PYRO. STAND 22 AND THROW 10 OUT TO 5 AND CRUSH THE POCKET. AT LEAST THAT IS THE PLAN OF THE NIGHT...

GOOD LUCK AND GOOD BOWLING!!!

Sanding the Supreme down will make it hook earlier on the lane not neccsarily more. It is a tough call Does he throw hard or slow and what type of Rev rate? If you answer that then it will make the call easier. Awesome flip will hook harder than both orbs very aggresive late on the lane and alot of power in the pocket.  If He needs an oil ball and you are already willing to buy him a new one Try a Seek and Destroy or Awesome Hook. If he has a lower ball speed S&D will hook plenty, as it is I don't use S&D on the THS. If he has a higher ball speed Awesome Hook would be a good choice I have it OOB finish and I can't get it past the arrows before it hooks on a THS so Polish would be an order there.

Something for in addition to the Colossus Supreme and the Rampage?  Is the Col Supreme not enough on oil?  In that case, then yes, the Awesome Hook or the Seek and Destroy would be good, but from what I remember, that Supreme was quite a strong ball, unless it's lost a little reaction since you first got it, i'd rather see a ball in between the Supreme and Rampage, something like an Awesome Revs with a control layout, or a solid reactive like the Total Annihilation if you can still get your hands on one...
