New Balls
« on: May 17, 2005, 11:23:58 PM »
Anyone know if Roto plans on releasing a new ball with the cyclotron core that is not particle?  I am looking for a ball to complement my Apocalypse...in my home house there is never really enough oil to need a particle.

If there are no plans for a new ball I may just get another Apoc(really love that ball) and do a different drilling on it.

Thanks for any info.

Something a lil stronger...right now my Apoc is drilled pretty weakly.  Thats why I was thinking maybe get another Apoc and drill it a bit stronger.

Right now my Apocalypse is drilled pin under ring almost to the middle finger and CG is kicked out towards that pap...the drilling looks almost like something you would see for a leftie.  

It give a very controllable arc...my driller was trying something different, because I tend to come too far around on the ball so my track is like a spinner.  So he was trying to do a drilling to get the ball to flip...I think, but I am not 100% sure of his reason.   My summer goal is to get my release at more of a 45 degree and not 90.

And I figured since I know my Apocalypse so well I should get a similar ball so it will be easier to make adjustments.

I was thinking about an Oracle Vison but I am not sure that I need a particle ball...it may be too aggressive for the conditions I bowl on.  I will look into that though.

@RotoRPS I don't seem to bowl well with a snappy ball I tend to bowl well with a ball that has a strong arc to the pocket it seem to be easier for me to control.  I did not know about the 70 degrees part...thanks for the info.

Vision is stronger than apoc but not alot stronger, so it would be a good choice also consider rsx another great ball. I have all 3 and the rsx for me is the strongest of the group but nothing crazy like super carbide bomb on oil.
