quick question
« on: June 16, 2007, 02:01:04 AM »
I recently bought the agent and I love the way the ball rolls in that it is easy for me to get it to the pocket.  However I have horrible carry with this ball.  I have never thrown a ball with which I get this bad of carry its either constant 10 pins or I come in high flush and leave the 9 or light leave a 7.  I understand I need to make adjustments to help carry but it seems every move I make just changes what pin I dont carry.  I was wondering if anyone else had this problem with the agent and if they did if they were able to change the surface or anything to help create better carry.

Maybe its rolling out? Or if it is carrydown? A little info about your game would help.

With like a lot of balls, the cover just needs to be adjusted a little. Surface preperation is a key to every ball.

It does seem that if your leaving 9's along with the 10's you may have to much finish on the backend causing a ring ten and not a weak ten. Possibly changing the cover to 2000 grit or so could smooth out the reaction and cause less angle on the back thus kicking out the 10 and 9.

I took it to my pro shop and he recommended putting a side weight hole in it so he did that I'll try that first.  He said if I am getting it to the pocket easy he didnt want to change the surface first.  If this doesnt work I'll try 2000 next.  Thanks for the help guys.
