need your suggestions please?
« on: July 20, 2011, 12:33:26 PM »
when the mutant cell came out, i had a feeling that this was the ball for me, it was. i averaged 226 with it, but only at one house that had  synthetic lanes, and a good amount of oil for the first game to about the middle of game 2. it just matched up well with my style, the layout and the lane condition.  here is my specs and the m/c specs ---- r/h  pap 5" over 1/8 " up,  speed dominate ( approx 16-18mph) i can move in and swing it, as long as i have the right conditon for the ball to recover at the back end. down and in is what i prefer, around the first arrow ( usually play anywhere between 5 - 8 board, if i can) low revs. the m/c had a lay out  of  53 x 3 x 53 balance hole at p2.  pin was 4-5"  -- also was 16lb.  i have gone down to 15lb as of now. what do you think i should look at?  i am looking at the "Critical Theory"---  i have that feeling again?


There's two kinds of music METAL and bullshit!

I think you are on the right track with the Critical Theory as it is 1 of 2 balls I would suggest for you.  The other ball I would go with is the Infinite Theory.  Both have a better core than the Mutant Cell, but it would depend on how much length you want to have in the oil.  The Critical will go longer but has the most backend of any Roto Grip ball so far.  The Infinite being a hybrid reads the midlane sooner and has more of a continual arc motion.   The advantage with hybrids is that it can prevent some of the over/under than can sometimes happen on a 100% pearl reactive cover.  However, pearl covers will react more on the backend and can give you a carry advantage on some conditions.  I think you just need to weigh the pros/cons between that.  You would also be able to play down and in or swing with either ball as you do now.

Both balls are solid choices and you can't go wrong with either one.
