    Default Finishing Touches to My Arsenal

    I am joining a tour that participates in tournaments in a variety of lanes. Therefore, I am hoping to build a versatile arsenal. if I join this league as a gold member, I will get a free ball. however I only have a few to choose from and was wondering which one would fill the gap in my arsenal the best. My current arsenal is as follows:

    Brunswick T-Zone for spares
    Ebonite Tornado drilled with pin above middle finger and factory finish
    Brunswick Avalanche Urethane drilled with pin above middle finger and factory finish
    Storm Virtual Gravity NANO drilled with pin above middle finger and factory finish
    Brunswick C (System) Alpha-Max drilled with pin below middle finger and 2000 grit finish

    The balls I have to choose from are the Storm Frantic, Storm Crossroad, Storm Victory Road Solid, Storm Marvel Pearl, Storm Marvel, the Storm Virtual Gravity NANO Pearl and the Storm Virtual Gravity NANO (obviously I already own this, so it probably isn't worth considering,)

    With that being said, what ball do you think would fill the void in my arsenal best and is there anything special I should do in terms of drilling, finish, etc?

    Let me know what you think,
    Casey

    ok from what i see u have 2 solid agresssive balls but no pearl if anything you should look at getting eather the vgnp soo if your solid balls start to over hook u can pull this one out and get it more down lane to hook into the pocket or go with a midperformac eball like the frantic or crossroad both good balls your choice cause u seem to only have solid balls have not looked at all of them yet but your most agressives are only solids.

    you could do this get the storm frnatic or corssroad u choice and maby put abit or polish on the alpha max or your vgn sooat least u will know one of them will get down the lane when the lanes start to burn up on your line.

    I agree with striker. My recommendation would be get a Frantic or Crossroads and polish the VGN.

    the frantic would be my choice but why not the crossroad with more of a shine to it or drilled to go long? jim or striker

    The Frantic. I just like the reaction of that ball better than the Crossroad when I've seen people roll them.

    hot pocket the crossroad gets alot of length on it if he wants to get that then he can but the best ball would be the frantic or the fringe the finge is i think alittle more agressive then the frantic with abit more polish on it.
