As a low rev/high speed lefty, I often find myself playing in the dry part of the lane. And last year, the lanes at my house were very toasty on the outside - almost too toasty. I found 2 ways to combat it without having to evacuate the area: a pin down UpRoar and a pin up 400A.
Given my lack of rev rate, the pin-down (large VAL angle) UpRoar just loped down lane. It was the quintessential control ball but with lots of length without a violent back end. It was a perfect step down from the IQ Tour Solid in terms of ball motion. The pin up (small VAL angle) 400A was my go to ball for most of the year. It went very long and snapped hard at the break point. It created the entry angle needed to kick out corner pins.
Your initial assessment was to get a hook monster or something super weak. I am not sure you need to go with either. I think going with either may leave you with the same kind of carry you're already seeing. What kind of ball motion do you prefer? Arching or skid/flip? As Avabob said, "The key to carry isn't more hook, but rather getting you ball to store the revs you do get further down the lane." Perhaps you need more of a skid/flip ball motion. Without seeing you bowl its all speculation.
