I wanted to update my post about the Hy-Road at 4000 Grit Abralon.
Had a chance to throw it last night subbing for my old team at a new house.
Synthetic lanes, about 40' a standard house shot without the massive dry boards to the outside. Not saying it was tough at all, just if you got it outside of 5 it was either washing out or barely clipping the head pin.
I started with my Black Widow, standing 15 with my feet, I line up with my left foot and I'm left handed, and throwing up 8-10. The Widow was money when I got it in that area, but was mixing the pins up coming in a tad light. I circled the ball a couple times and got it left and it had no chance.
I switched to the Hy-Road at 4000 in the 10th frame of the first game, playing the same line. Anything from 8-10 was flush, and I again circled a couple shots and got it left, but it had better recovery than the Black Widow. The ball is very smooth at 4000 with a nice arcy finish, not the huge back end get you in trouble snap. The ball is plenty strong, with good carry. Mine is drilled with the pin below the ring and the cg kicked out left like I said in my earlier post. Gets the ball started up a little sooner, which makes its transition down the lane smoother and easier to handle.
If you're having issues with the OOB surface I highly recommend changing the cover to 4000. Strong and smooth is how I would describe it.
I'm glad I didn't sell this thing like I had originally planned.
