Hello, new poster here, looking for some help with my arsenal.  Hopefully I picked the correct subforum.

I bowled competitively about 17 years ago, and have gotten back into league and such over the past couple of years.  I average around 190 on a THS, throw about 16mph measured at the pins and have a moderate rev rate.

Currently I am throwing a radical katana, !q tour, and a roto grip DD Trick.  My katana is probably my favorite ball currently, Im a fan of the angular motion.

I am struggling in the early part of league with getting motion on my ball.  I have typically thrown my DDT first.  TO me it really just seems like a slightly stronger version of my !q tour.  Spoke with my pro shop and we took the DD down to 1000 and then polished with 1500 to try and help the reaction.  It was a slightly later breakpoint, but still wasn't giving me the motion I get in the later games with my katana.  Not necessarily the shape, but just overall hook across the lane.

I have considered ditching the DD and have been interested in something like the Intense Fire, or the Roto grip halo.

Any suggestions on how these may fit my arsenal?  Am I even thinking correctly that I need a stronger ball for the early games?  Any help is appreciated.
