ABCs?
« on: March 29, 2004, 08:17:00 AM »
Anyone use Track stuff out at the ABCs?  How did you do, and what were you using?  I am going next week, and plan on starting with the Phenom, and switching to my TT...will practice on the shot tomorrow night though, so this plan may change depending on how my stuff reacts tomorrow.

A buddy of mine went and used a Havoc drilled 4.5 PIN and 4 MB. He scored well, but not really well, if you know what I mean. He won a ton in brackets, but overall his scores were not great.

Used an Animal box finish up the back straight up 6 for team event.For doubles and singles I used a Freak sanded with a lot of hand swinging to eight moving deeper inside every three frames.Ended up second on squad for all events.Won't cash tournament but swept all my brackets and paid for the trip.Both balls drilled stacked leverage with pin under ring.

Also took Anamaly and Spirit.Could not get a look with either one.

Tip:light pocket has better carry percentage.MVP of the trip was my White Dot.Make SURE one of your balls is a spare ball.

I know the shot and carry will be different once I am out there, but at the house I was at with the ABC condition, the Phenom worked well swinging out to about 8-10 or so.  Came back real nice.  The TT went dead in the out of bounds area when swinging it...not enough ball.  

The TT worked better with less hand playing up the 6 or 7 board, but just seemed weak compared to swinging my Phenom.  Overall, am planning on using my Phenom at least at first...

Well, here is my mini-report on the ABCs:
I found that the shot my house put out was very similar to the shot out in Reno.  I started with my Phenom, and used that through the whole team event on the fresh lanes.  Used my Phenom throughout all of Doubles as well.  Switched to my TT and then my Eraser during Singles.  

I had very good carry with all of my equipment when I hit the pocket.  Did not leave a lot of 10-pins or anything.  Had a few more 9-pins than usual, but that was all I noticed.  My downfall was wrist problems on my strike ball which led to not hitting my mark consistently.  Was happy with how my Track equipment did, and this year felt like I did not do well because of the bowler.  Last year I did not do well because of the bowler, but did not have optimal equipment either.
