    Default What ball is good for dry/medium oil lanes that is symmetrical??

    I was wondering what ball you use with the above description. I am not a high rev guy but sort of in the middle.

    My current light to medium oil ball is the Lane Master Yeah Baby. It's one of the smoothest balls I have thrown which lends to a lot more control.

    For dry conditions I use the Fanatic BTU.

    Storm Fight, OOB condition. The drill I have seems to be able to cut right through the heads. Don't polish it, cuz it'll kill you on the back end once that core revs up.

    I almost forgot that the Fanatic is great as well.

    Depends on the motion your looking for if you want more control then it would be the Brunswick Rhino but it's not a true medium

    If you want something that you pitch right and goes long the Fanatic is my favorite at the moment. The fanatic will handle light to medium pretty well for me at least as long as their is dry spot to bounce off of.
