ok, i'm about 5-11, with backswing that almost goes parallel with the floor. i think my ball speed isn't slow while not super fast, so i guess it would be medium speed. i can put decent amount of rotation on the ball as well.
i have animal drilled 4 inch from pin to PAP and 5.5 inch from MB to PAP. the pin is to 1 o'clock from the ring finger. and i think that MB is on the VAL.
in normal league shot, this ball is very very erratic. first game, i had to put it away after 5 mins of practice because this ball would slide, slide, then just crash into the pins. and sometimes, it would slide, then catch on, then make a strong, strong move to the pocket. so i went to the proshop and i had it lightly sanded with groove going across the track lines. yet, it made no difference to its inconsistancy.
i couldn't really figure why it was behaving this way, but yesterday at the league, i played with the ball for 2 games (while playing just enough to win the games). i realized that i was able to make it hook depending on the release (i think). i had to gently kinda let the ball go with my hand tilted to 20 degree (from the 12 o'clock orientation). weird thing is that if i tried to put more rev on the ball, this all would slide, try to turn, then couldn't turn the corner at the breakpoint. now, any of you out there have lots of rev and have trouble keeping this ball consistant? it may be my release, but i know for a fact that with my xfactor deuce, a little discrenpancy in release doesn't end up with ball not turning the corner at all. any help would be greatly appreciated. what should i do? i'm seriously considering trading the ball in and lose 150 dollars (or give it to my friend). this ball has less than 5 games on it and i'm desperate to know what i need to do. thank you.
