New bowling ball time!
« on: July 18, 2007, 09:43:33 AM »
Well folks, it's new bowling ball time! I'm still looking to find something in between my Passion at OOB condition, and my Pyro at 2000 Abralon. I'm torn between the Agent and the Paradigm Domination. I know for a fact for either ball I get, I want it to be roughed up, polished balls do NOT work well with me. I was thinking of either an Agent at 2000 Abralon also, or the Domination at 2000 or 4000. I'm just looking to fill this gap because sometimes my Pyro can't make the turn and when I switch to my Passion, it picks up too early and cuts through the nose. I'm a low rev, medium speed player if that helps for opinions. I know I've asked this before, but I tried to find the thread and it was gone

Thanks again for the help in advance!

Well, of the two balls you listed it sounds like a coin flip, I have the Domination, and it's a great length and flip ball, stronger than your Pyro, less than the Passion, but if I may suggest a Shift, it may be a better split of the Passion and Pyro.  Little bit of particle in with the pearl, and a nice reaction to the pocket.  Don't have an Agent, so can't help you too much there....my suggestion is the Shift, but I don't think you'll be real disappointed with the Domination either.

How about a T-road solid?

i have a pyro at 2000 and bought a t-road solid last week and love it. very good choice, or think about the secret agent. form what i saw the ball is great. those would be my choices.

If you have your heart set on the agent or the domination I would go with the agent it would take better to scuffing up than the domination because the agent rolls fairly early for a pearl and the domination is a very nasty skid/flip and scuffing that up defeats the purpose if you ask me. But if I had to recommend any ball I would go with the special agent just like dlenart said!!

Special Agent, now there's an idea I've never toyed with. That or the Shift. IF I were to get the Special Agent, a longer-ish drilling would probably suit my needs best, eh? Like a pin over bridge kind of thing?

I would go with pin up and right of ring finger that would make the ball turn the corner nicely
