Thread: Ball for 18+ mph?

  1. #1

    Default Ball for 18+ mph?

    I have a DV8 Terror, Black Widow Solid, Bite, Venom and a Taboo Blue Silver all 15lbs. My question is I wanted to try for a new ball cause at 18+mph these arent working for me that well I'm stuck around a average between 170-180. I'm not sure of my style of bowling but I go up the second arrow.

    well going streght up the 2nd arrow then the terror should be hooking for you hook i throw the hell raiser revenge and i cross boards with it. it could be that your not putting enouph revs on the ball to even out with the speed i got a high rev rate and i throw form 18-19mph and can make a mid performance ball hook i can even get a freeze going streght up 5 go into the other gutter.

    so it could be that you are not revving enough soo try to get under the ball more to put more revs on it.

    or possibly your balls are drilled weak soo they wont hook much theres ltos of factors but when you dont give your rev rate its hard to say but wait till after the 31 and maby go get the nightmare im planning on getting 1 my self cause i use to ahve the msot agressive ball in bowling but once the 31st come then i wont.

    you can try slowing down your speed if you want to stay on your current line, if not then try throwing the ball straight on the second arrow as striker said.

    How are all those balls not working? I have a Terror (pin up) and can hook it from any spot right of the 20 board above 18 mph at the pins. If the lanes are too dry then the ball won't skid and then will hit the hook phase too early and lose the energy. My Terror hit like a feather tonight so I went to the Reckless, changed nothing else and was fine. Luckily I recognized the issue right away so it was only two crap frames.
    I also want to know what an inverted line it.
