Good stuff

Thank you sir

During the month of October, I have set new personal series records on 4 occasions. And while I know there's going to be a stinker in there some where, I want to keep myself in the mid to upper 600's, and into the 700's.

Thanks to the guys at http://www.lanesidereviews.com for what they have done to improve my game. It is certainly an honor to be a part of them. #TeamLSR

217 212 231 - 660

While this was a good series, I wasn't happy with the way I was releasing the ball and my overall ball reaction.

My release wasn't giving me much reaction with the Ultimate Nirvana or the Vandal. But the Vandal was recovering from the 2 board to the pocket, but the UN didn't. I know that doesn't make sense, but that's how it went for me.

I'm getting the Vandal Smash on Saturday. Hopefully it will help cure a few of these ill's I had tonight.

Congrats on the 700 I must have missed that post. It does actually make sense. The Vandal has a little higher Rg. (not much) and less surface than the UN 500/royal vs 500/4000 not a huge difference but a little. From watching the two balls personally I think the cover on the UN is quite a bit stronger than the Vandal too. In other words the UN was burning up on you especially that far outside where the Vandal had enough energy left to make the turn. Still a nice series though.

Actually the Smash is going to be closer to the Nirvana than the original Vandal. The surface on the Smash is the same as UN. Honestly I don't see a hole there between the UN and the Vandal myself.

The UN is stronger than the Vandal in all areas, but last night you would have sworn otherwise and that was all on me.

When it comes to the Smash, it is much better in oil, and has a lot more energy & continuation than the original. I also don't quite see it as good as the UN, and I see it as just a step down where you can keep the same track on the lanes when you have to consider moving left or right.

The Smash also has much more forgiveness than the UN, especially if you have that errant shot that gets you where it would be out of bounds. The UN will really make the violent turn there and miss the pocket and go too far left even for a good Brooklyn hit.

Same holds true with the original Vandal, except it won't make it back to the pocket 99% of the time and makes for a ton of ugliness! lol

But last night was an entirely other animal, and would probably have done better with my VDZ, but, I didn't have it with me. And one thing is for darn sure, you can bet that I'll have it with me from here on out on Wednesday's because this house is very unpredictable from week to week, and I would rather have 2 bags of equipment than be short one! lol

I understand that my houses have been crazy this year even more so than normal. Normally I only bring one three ball roller with me I've taken to carrying them all in the trunk and just going out to get what I need. You may find that you have better luck with that nirvana playing inside with a tighter line. That ball may be marketed as long but it's still a nirvana and needs oil to function.

I did stay in the oil with it, and I was getting nothing from it, which had me saying WTF?? lol

That's how crazy it was for me last night! lol
