Hi
Right now, I'm using an entry level ball and its been working pretty good. When the oil is a little heavier though, I wish I had something a little more aggressive. I'd like a few suggestions on which ball I should consider for my next purchase, so that I can narrow down my choices.
I've been checking out Bowlingball.com for medium oil balls.
The ball I use now is a 16 lb. Columbia Tiger scout. My ball speed is 15-16 mph. I don't know my rev rate. I know this isn't enough information to go on, I'm just looking for a ball park suggestion.
I have a bowling clinic this Friday, and I'm going to ask one of the coaches, what ball they'd recommend. I know it'd be easier to recommend a ball, once I tell you what one of the coaches suggest tomorrow but what would it hurt suggesting a ball today ? I won't buy one until I compile some kind of list anyway. I just wanna start shopping now.:)
Both of the bowling centers that I bowl at are medium to dry oil.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks everybody for your time ! I realize there's a ton of different options but at least now, I have someplace to start.

If you want to stick in the C300 line up, I'm using a Crazy antics for Med-Med/dry. I throw 16# OOB finish pin up in the middle of my fingers At speed 16-18, And have lower revs. I did not like this ball when I first got it but after playing with my lines and learning when and where to use it I'm really liking it. I might start playing with the cover dull it up a lil due to my lower revs.
