    Default Can't See Oil Track On My New Ball

    On my old ball it was dull in color so I could easily see my oil track. My new ball is glossy and I can't see the oil track. Is there a way to more easily see it on balls of this type.was thinking of learning to find my pap and seeing the oil is step one...

    well ik if you get under a bright light push the ball out in front of your and turn it abit you will see it but it takes some times to see if it is the oil or if it is the ball reason for bright where the oil it over the glossy ball will make it shinemore then anywhere else on the ball but there is other tricks to it but give it a few week and u will beable to see your track line easly.

    It will take about 6 or more games before you strat to see the track on your ball.

    To get a oil line on the ball, throw it more in the middle of the lane where there is the most oil or a fresh pattern. Should give you a better line to see. If you throw in the dryer areas it won't pick up much and what there is could be absorbed into the ball before you see it. Also a shiny ball won't pick up as much as the dull ball will.
