I'm looking for a ball to fill a gap, I need something for med- med/heavy with carrydown/ poor backends, was considering a D/T High Energy, but the Rule and the Delta 1 have caught my eye. I bowl about 16mph stroker medium revs 45deg axis but I can vary axis and play 1st to 4th arrows depending on oil and backend so I'm quite versatile.Would either of these suit my needs, I am looking for a ball thats not polished as I have what I need in polished balls.I need something that wiil start slightly earlier but will still be strong when my polidhed balls are not quite making the turn.

Thanks.

Thanks for the replies, interesting suggestion of the Slash,the only Track ball I've had was the Triton Elite and loved it, this seems to be an update of this ball with added zest,anyone confirm this??? if so and it can handle poor backends then it may be what I'm looking for.

Thanks clint, the more I hear the aggressive seems to be the ball to get, what would be a good drill to get decent length with a hard arc at the breakpoint.I take it by your reply the Aggressive is light load particle my only other particle ball was the Apex Addiction how would they compare.

Thanks.

BTW, I have an old addiction also and I will see if I can dig it up and try it against my GP2!!! Though, I doubt there will be any comparision!!! I wasnt much impressed with my Addiction but, my GP2 is my most favorite ball I have ever owned!!!!

Hey, it might be slop but, it all looks the same on the scorecard!!!!!

The light load particles are to me, some of the best balls on the market. Not enough particle load to make it want to roll in your backswing, but just enough to help it tread through oil better. The Arsenal Aggressive is the ONLY light load particle solid we have, as the Blue and GP2 are medium loads. Thus the reason why I have been asking for the Aggressive cover on the GP2 core...the Peak is AWESOME, and I wonder how that core would react with a lighter load of particle in it.

Hey Ratpack,

Actually, all the choices mentioned are good.  I feel the better key behind eating thru carrydown is not to get backend strength but more midlane read so a ball can start to pick up sooner and finish with a normal reaction vs trying to have it fight in the last 20 ft.  A strong particle like the GP or Aggressive is good but so are the Delta 1 or Reactive.  The Delta 1 even being resin has a very strong cover and the Reactive having a lower rg can also pick up sooner.  

This really depends on how much oil you have.  Question, what ball are you throwing now that cannot eat thru the carrydown?  This will give us a better picture of the ball strength that you need, thanks.

Ratpack,

I like the Delta 1 for what you need. The Arsenal Reactive wouldn't be bad, but if the Delta 1 is drilled for backend and you keep the OOB finish I doubt carrydown will be an issue.
