I have a pin up dark legend solid, pin up side swipe solid, pin up gb2, what ball, and pin up or down, would you reccomend to accomodote what I all ready have?

Pin up does not mean a whole lot. Everything I own is a pin up but completely different layouts.

Let's start with what do you want the ball to do and what void are you trying to fill?

I need something that will get through the front clean and not over/under react. I have a lot of strong balls and a lot of "weaker" balls but nothing pearl wise that's in the middle. Would something like the phobia, emerald kenetic, tyrant pearl work?

Try the Brunswick Fanatic should fill the spot nicely.

I really liked the Tyrant pearl I threw at an EBI demo a couple weeks back, since it was drilled pin-up and neutral it got down lane very nicely and still had some turn at the back. Very nice carry too.

I liked the Tyrant Pearl at the demo also. But for me the Cyborg Pearl was a little smoother. Throwing the Kinetic Emerald at the last demo I liked it the best on medium conditions. Tyrant is a little stronger on heavier and a bit touchy on medium for me.

I'll also add the DareDevil. Love that ball and very versatile. However it is also very skid/flip compared to the others above. I'll see if I have a vid I can post up.

Well I loved my dark legend solid a lot and wanted something that went a little longer and found a dark legend hybrid and It should give me just enough more length. I am going to have it drilled just like the solid. They should be a perfect fit. After that I think Ill save up for a phobia, cyborg pearl and or a phenom pearl

I've been throwing a Storm Street Fight for most of the season this year. Clears the heads well, isn't jumpy in the mid, and has a nice, predictable back end reaction. And with the massive Iron Cross core in it, it hits like a freight train.
