    ok here is a question: why do you need a bal that hooks this much???? sure its cool to watch the ball take a 90 degree turn into the pocket, but why? unless your bowling for big bucks and need a ball for every possible situation out there, i would much rather stick with a ball that that has a nice controllable hook that i can refine my skills with

    If his speed is 21 at the pins and he wants to play from the 24 across the 15 then he would need a big hooker if his axis rotation was low. What is a skill or plus for one of us can be a negative for another. He has a ball to go to when the lanes break down so that will help.

    One man's trash is another man's treasure was the analogy I based this answer from but that sounded too crude. I like adjusting while others don't. Neither is wrong, just different.

    a player's skill isn't really about what ball they have though. A heavy oil ball just isn't going to be as good as a cheap entry level ball on certain conditions.

    Then build a good arsenal as time and money allows. There is nothing wrong with doing anything and everything to the best of your ability. As long as sport shots and tournaments are on the horizon then it won't be a wasted purchase even if you can't use it on your league shot.

    Fair enough lol, i hadn't taken 21mph ball speed into account lol, if you throw it fast enough i bet the nightmare would look like a slingshot LOL
