you sound like you have a good start allready, me i only throw morich, theses days, andid suggest, a 3/8 drill on the s&a, that way it gets down the lane well before it snaps into the pocket, and on the sahara, i like the morich control drill, its great when the lanes,dry up,but becarefull with this ball for its stronger then advertised, but works great with the control drilling,, and enjoy them for morich is no.#1
