Practicing for upcoming tournament...
There is a tournament coming up tyhat will require a couple hours of driving to get to and some of my tournament team-mates and I are going to make the road trip down to get a few games practice on lanes that will be new to us. I am wondering which balls I should take with me for the purpose of practicing/getting acquainted with lanes I have never bowled on before.
I have the capacitry of taking 5 balls with me from the list below in my signature. What kinds of balls would you take and please give me your rationale for doing so? Right now, I have packed my Defiant, Lucid, Vivid, Wrecker and Reign of Power...

I would take the Defiant & Lucid for heavy oil! Reign of Power for medium heavy oil! Wrecker or Crossroad for ligh-medium oil! Black Ice for spares!
Lucid sanded to 1000 for heavy oil,Defiant 2000-3000 with polish is very versital on 40+Heavy-medium oil or when lanes start to breack down. Reign of Power for medium heavy oil or transition depending on breakdown,Wrecker or Crossroads for 35'-38' medium-light/medium oil patterns and the black ice for spares and the rare dry lanes.

I'm assuming they are synthetic wood lanes? If so, do you know what pattern they would be laying out?
