Would Ogre SS rico drilled be good if I wanted to play straighter as it dried out?

The Rico drill may get you near what you're looking for, but I still think it's probably just better to go with the Centaur. That ball was made to be smooth and controllable throughout the lane, and that's pretty much how everyone rates it. The SS will give you length, but it's going to want to rip hard off the dry. To me, it just makes more sense to take the ball that's made for that type of shot rather than hoping you can convert a ball that really isn't. Just my .02.

How dry are we talking??  Don't forget about the Ogre Urethane.  I agree that the Centaur would be a better pick over the SS. It's smooth and controlable.  It shines on this condition.
