Just finished cleaning my er...bowling balls.....and.....ran into dry lanes tonight. In the first game I tried using my Machine with an inside shot and...it didn't work in part because it was breaking too much, and in part because I couldn't hit the side of a barn! Had a wonderful 150. Great. :-(

Decided to try my Desert Heat in the second game....didn't really think it would work because there was some oil out there and I have that ball drilled very beignly. Besides, other players were using The One or an Inferno or a Horizon with a down and in shot. But...what the heck... try a down and in shot...with the Desert Heat....and....I had a 199 with an open in the tenth (because my Columbia Blue Dot managed to break three boards...how I don't know but it did), and a 221 in the third. Not only that, but I learned that ball hits like a Track. Talk about pins flying this way and that. (And I throw a relatively slow to medium-slow ball too!)

Conclusion....trust in thy Desert Heat. Trust in the engineers at Track. Trust in Del. Long live the Revolution!

I love mine.  I actually shoot spares with it.  On slicker conditions it makes a great spare ball as well as a good dry lane ball.  Don't feel bad cnimsk last night I shot a 137 after have a 209 my first game.

The question isn't why do I throw all Track, it's why don't you.

Arsenal includes:
Rule GP2, Rule Delta 1, Slash, Xception, Heat Blast, Heat,  Desert Heat

Dry lane balls may seem expensive because you do not need them MOST of the time. But when the conditions are right (and you trust yourself to make the ball change), it can be the biggest value in your bag.
