Pick your 4 ball Track Arsenal

Open post to the Track followers:

4 Ball Arsenal

Yes, I know it may be difficult (it is for me), but, if you were faced with only bringing 4 balls to league/tournament/practice/whatever else, what would be the 4 Track balls you currently own that you would bring. Doesn’t need to be in current line, you can use any discontinued balls as well.

Here is mine-

GP2-Heavy
Xception-Mediums
Hexplosion- Light medium
Heat(new remake)-Drier

I think I could cover almost anything I see outside of the Sahara……

Clint,

This is what I currently see me taking to a tournament if I could only take 4:

Heavy: GP2
Mediums: Arsenal Aggressive (still have to get a new one)
Med/Light: Xception
Dry: Heat

I have a really difficult time not including the Slash in there, but those will fill my needs nicely.

Here's mine:

Heavy/Medium-Heavy: Arsenal Agressive.  Little scotchbrite will help it cover heavy
Medium: Xception
Mediums-Medium-Light:  2 Heats.  One drilled strong, the other weak.

Here's mine-

Rule GP2 for any heavy/long pattern
Slash for medium/heavy patterns with some (15-18') backends
Xception for most mediums
Crunch Time for lighter mediums (if I increased speed)

I have to admit that I have better options on dry conditions, but Track products seem to carry better and hook more in the real heavy stuff for me.  Excellent equipment!

GP2,Slash,Exception, TBD by future release or sugar ray boxing glove ball.

Slash and the Freak-a-Zoid would be interchangeable.

In our area and in my collegiate tournaments there's not really a need for a top to bottom type arsenal, but more of a need for equipment that complements each other and that you can transition to and from since we hardly see the extremes.  In a case of 4 balls I'd go with

Med-Heavy(fresh): Slash(4x4 w x/hole)
Med/Heavy w/Carrydown(transition ball): Arsenal Aggressive(4x2 w/ x-hole)
Med-Light: Polished Slash(5 1/2 x 5 no xh)
Med-Light transition ball: Heat Remake(5 x 4 w/ x-hole inside VAL to smoothen out the breakpoint)

Here's what I would take:

Heavy - GP2
Medium/Heavy - Aggressive
Medium - Angular
Dry- Heat

Never really like the reaction out of my Xception. Love my Reaction I get from my Angular.

At this moment I would have to say;

GP2
Phenom
FAZ
Crunch Time

Haven't drilled my Heat yet. It will probably take the place of my Crunch Time.
