The best bowling ball that I found that worked pretty good and
was the most consistent on reaction on the wood lanes was a
plain old urethane ball not a reactive urethane type of ball.
It pretty much still holds true even today that the most consistent
type of ball I can throw is still a plain old urethane ball. I still break
out my old Ebonite black Turbo urethane ball every once in a while
to throw it but the span is a little bit too long for me now days with
the arthritis in my fingers and all.
So Iceman if you have a plain old urethane ball you might just want
to take it with you when you go to bowl on the wood lanes.
