Looking for some advice. Currently using a RG Winner Solid and Hustle ink. Looking for something both earlier and smoother than the Winner so the Iq’s seem like a good way to go. Was going to pick up a Tour Solid but then the Nano Pearl came out so now I’m conflicted. I bowl at 2 different houses with fairly different shots and lane surfaces and I bowl on the occasional tournament. I am a lefty. Ball speed around 18 mph and medium rev rate. Thanks!

Thanks!I would suggest the Nano Pearl based on your stats. With that ball speed; if your rev rate was higher, then going with the Solid would be a no brainer. Or.....if your ball speed was more like 16 with the medium rev rate I would say that Solid as well. But at 18 mph, I think the added strength in the Nano cover would give you continuation help you wouldnt see with the Solid. My fear is that the Solid would leave a lot of flat 7 pins on half pocket hits.
I appreciate the advice. Sounds like the nano is the way to go. Some other considerations were the Idol Pro and Pro Motion but with both being discontinued by the time I’m ready to get something they may be hard to find.
