I have a DV8 Marauder and I love it, it works very well on those conditions. Bowlingball.com has 'em for $114, which fits your budget as well (drilling will be an extra $40 to $50 depending on where you go for that). I don't know how it compares to the Crash or the Scout as far as the amount of hook goes, but mine sure does hook. I used to play the same line as you, but I've found with this ball, I need to stand at the center dot and throw over the second arrow, that's how much more it hooks than my old Brunswick Cyclone. If I really rev it up, I can stand at the 4th or even 5th dot and still hit the pocket with it. It's a very versatile ball and I can't say enough good things about it.
