Duke, I just watched your video and in my opinion, your very consistent in your delivery but the 300c is not giving consistency in reactions, I know your a Track guy but if you were to buy a Visionary SS Ogre, you would be rewarded on lighter oil.


Props to Afflac for dumping Gilbert!

I'm not married to any brand...I've rolled Lanemaster, Lane #1, Track, Hammer, Ebonite, Columbia, Brunswick, MoRich, Visionary.
 
I have a RG Mars which works pretty well, along with the Grenade.
 
Thanks for the recommendation.
 
I just picked up 2 used Hammers: Infection & Taboo, last night.
Don't know if I want to drill them or not...The guy told me the Taboo was a "turd, went straight on 3 different conditions."

Richard,
 
The 300C looks almost exactly like the Infinite Theory. Hope the lane condition was different ...

Jeff,
Nice catch....The balls are remarkably the same, w/the same surface prep....
I threw all 4 of the balls on the same lane condition, 1 game each, in this order:
1. RG Grenade
2. RG  Fark Star
3. Track 300C
4. RG Infinite Theory
 
The Grenade, being urethane, of course, reacted differently...the other 3 balls were pretty similar.

Now, I am surprised, Richard.
I knew the 300C was strong but not that strong. Fascinating.

Just me, but I'd say it's more the lane condition than ball strength in the comparison of equipment..

If I was you duke, I would get with a coach asap.  You need to develop some knee bend in your slide leg.  By standing so upright you aren't able to deliver the ball on a consistent plane.  Hence why you are a bit erratic with your shots in the vid.  It would make a huge difference in your scores and consistency.

AmfTrack,
Good point...you are observant.
I worked with a coach for 3+ years.
I have knee damage. I wear a knee brace, which does not allow me to bend my knee.
I have Metatarsalgia, and have to keep the weight off of my slide foot (back onto the heel) My orthopedist, has told me repeatedly to stop bowling.
I'm 64, and my game is not getting better. It's just a hobby I enjoy.
I average around 205-210...which I find acceptable.
Thanks for the input.

Jeff,
Of course when there is actually some decent oil on the lanes . . . the 300C is nowhere near as strong as the Infinite Theory.
 
Kind of what Scott refers to: "the lane conditions".

Scott, you are correct...but I was surprised that the Inifinite Theory and 300C were even close on left-over open play oil.
I imagine if they had similar layouts, the balls would have had quite different reactions?
