Am I missing anything?
« on: January 17, 2005, 05:36:17 PM »
I know everybody asks this question, so I am gonna do it too.  I am in the process of renewing my arsenal. (just updating my equipment).  Here is what I am thinking as of now.  Am I missing anything? Any suggestions.

Heavy: Rule/Mutant
Med/Heavy: Exception
Med: Freak-a-Zoid/Freak-Out
Med/Dry: Havoc
Dry: Dry Heat
Spare: White Dot

Balls I was going to retire: Threat, Phenom

I was tinkering around the idea of also either adding a Phenom Unleashes or an Animal, but I don't have infinite funds plus I don't bowl enough tournaments to justify getting anymore balls.

One last question, how does the Freak-a-Zoid handle carrydown? I know my Freak-Out takes care of it with no problem.  Thank You in advance.

Hey bts,

Is your Havoc polished?  It really doesn't fit in there unless you have pretty low revs or it's high glossed.  If you're planning on purchasing this arsenal, I'd bump it it notch up but that depends on how much oil you see at your houses.

Heavy - Rule GP2
Med/Heavy - Rule
Med Lite/Med - Xception
Med - FAZ/Slash
Med/Dry - Dry Heat/Crash
Dry/Spare - White Dot

Only thing I would add to Ten is I absolutely LOVE the Hexplosion. However, it may not be enough ball to fit with the FAZ and Slash, and may be too much ball to be with the Dry Heat and Crash. But it does roll very true and just like the rest of Track's equipment, it hits HARD!

bts,
I am right along with Rick on this. The only tweak I would make is maybe (as Clint mentioned) throwing the Hexplosion in there where Rick has the Crash. The Crash gets awesome length, but if the condition is too dry down the lane the Hexplosion will tame the breakpoint a bit.

Hey Ric and Ex,

I appreciate the input.  I was thinking about the Rule GP2, but I don't see enough oil to where that might be useful (unless of course I start rolling in some bigger tournaments).  As far as the Havac, it is not polished, but it is drilled with some length.  I am not a high rev player.  I have thrown it a couple of times on med/med dry conditions and it gets down the lane pretty good without it overreacting.  Never really gave the Hexplosion a look, but I think I might look into it.  Thanks everybody.
