Finding one ball and making it work for 3 games during league is hard to do. USBC ball motion study found that it only takes 5 shots to change a line on the lane. And when you have 8 or more people on a pair of lanes the shot transitions quickly. For example, I had a great line last night during league, I shot 233 the first game and 254 the second game, with quite a few corner pins being left off of pocket shots mind you. By the third game the line I was playing completely disappeared and no matter how dramatic the move I made I couldn't use the same ball. Did not finish very well.
However, if you are going to try to use one ball the whole time, I would recommend using a really weak ball and lining up on the outsides of the lane to start, and then moving in deeper as the games go on. The Misfit could fit this niche if you are going to stick with DV8.
