I know this is fruitless... but I still have the NIB T-Road Solid. This was the 2007 Bowler's Journal Ball of the Year. It has a short pin (about 2"), and with the right drilling, it can make for a good control ball. I have another one drilled pin in finger with the CG below midline and X-hole just inside the VAL. This allows for early roll with reduced flare and straighter trajectory. Like the other Road series balls, it shows no signs of quit. Take the surface from 1000 Ab box finish to say 3000 Ab polish, and you've got a ball closer to an IQ Tour. I know those old wood lanes can be trouble sometimes, but if you say the oil in your house has increased in volume, this ball might help... especially if there's transition. Just food for thought.
