For a speed dominate lefty on old wood with broken down lane oil my arsenal is badger with a strong smooth layout like a 60 x 4-3/4" x 30 duel angle layout, the badger will be ball one then hyroad x pin under middle finger, the gold honey badger to ball down to from the badger, dark code , 2 IQ tour emeralds w different layouts at a different surfaces, the IQ tour solid with a one inch pin, and my best ball that I know and love is my zero gravity I can throw that everywhere on anything.

2-hander, 16-18mph, 500+ rev rate For house shot: 1. Eternity (drilled strong and highly angular so that when sanded it reads the oil and then still gets off the spot, very unique shape that not many will like but I do, definitely not ball 1 on sport) 2. Phaze II (benchmark obviously) 3. RST X-2 (same idea as the blackout) 4. Revenant (still same idea as the gold label but a little weaker overall, need to drill this one stronger, would recommend the same balls in the vid over the revenant because of the slightly stronger cores) 5. Hustle RIP (I can always use this when nothing else works, I have a hyroad pearl too but I haven’t had a lot of success with weaker cover syms, probably going to drill them stronger soon) 6. Ice (need plastic to hit spares)

So, last Friday night, I did a bunch of practice bowling (about 10 games). Then my friend shows up, we bowled another 8 games together. By that 17th game the lane pair was getting pretty burnt up and I was having a bit of a time getting consistent shape without over hooking. I was throwing my Zen Pearl at that time (my weakest ball). I told my friend "I'm going to make a RADICAL ball change, I'm changing to my Proton Physix, my strongest ball". And keep in mind, I JUST resurfaced all of my balls in a ball spinner, back to factory the night before. My best game of the night was that last game. I moved a little bit to the right with my feet, rolling over 13-14 board at the arrows, rolling about 2mph faster than normal and reducing my axis rotation to probably around 20 degrees (going up the back of the ball more). WHAM baby!!! .. Threw strikes the front 6 .. spare .. 3 bagger .. spare .. goofed up the 10th (was getting tired). But man, what a ball change!! .. I thought I was being absolutely crazy making that ball change like that. Perhaps Mr. Tang can explain to me a little bit why it worked out so well. I know that ball and setup (target, throw) would not have worked earlier in the night, and I would think as much as we burned up the lane that my Proton Physix would not have been a good choice, but man, it was freaking perfect! .. some of the best strikes I have ever had! .. flush, flush, flush .. time after time! .. had I not been so tired I could have had a SUPER good score, perhaps my first 300? .. it was amazing .. Darren .. why did this work???

Pearl balls aren’t necessarily weak. There are strong pearl covers just as there are weak solid covers. Urethane is the earliest cover on the market. They’re usually paired with weak cores so they don’t “hook” too much in the front of the lane.

Never thought about purposely wanting to burn up/transition on the fresh game 1/2 a little more right of the preferred target when lanes transition a bit. Did my first league and it’s very clear I bowl better game 2 and 3. I usually struggle with game 1. Been using my phaze 2 for game 1 then absolute soon as I don’t don’t like ball motion from phase 2 which is usually half way through game 2. Might either grab one of those slot 1/2 balls or add surface to the phaze 2. But def going into fall/winter league with that intent on game 1. I need to work on playing right anyways lol 😂😂😂
