Tropical Storm carries just as well as anything else out there.

Jolt Pearl is a smoother piece then a Tropical. If they are "BURNT", plastic!!!

I agree -- the Tropical is good for medium or even medium dry maybe, but it's a bit too strong on the back for drier lanes.

I got a Dyno-Thane Threshold that does really well on the drier type lanes. I can usually play it from center board out to about the 4-5 board and it comes back right in the pocket. The rest off my stuff Im sliding in the left gutter and tossing it to the 3 board hoping it will stay in the pocket.

While I jolt could work it sounds like you need a ball with a good core, but an older coverstock.  

Hey...I've got a NIB 15lb Too Hot sitting at home that could work, drop me a line if you are interested.

i am a collegiatte bowler, and with experience on the tracked out or dry shots, i would have to agree with the jolt pearl because thats what i throw alot on the tracked out shot. or if your looking for something that will hit a little more harder, think about either a t-road pearl or even a thunderstruck pearl. i have a t-road pearl that kills on the dry or tracked out lanes, and just ordered a thunderstruck pearl to see how that does. goof, i see you have a too hot. how much?
