Bowling equipment stolen. I need advice on replacement

[wmgambill]

Hi all, I'm new to this forum and I need some help. A couple of weeks ago, my car was broken into and my bowling bag was stolen. Inside were my two balls, my shoes, and my lucky (debatable) towel. I know, I shouldn't have had them outside....
Beyond leaving my stuff outside I also don't use my thumb when I throw. I just never have. I've been in leagues now for about 6 years and have around a 200 average. I'm pretty happy with where I am and have a consistent throw despite the lack of thumb. Anyway, I need help replacing my main ball.

I threw a 16lb old urethane Hammer, dark blue almost violet. I've found I like the urethane as the new balls hook too much and with the Hammer I had a really nice gradual curve. I only throw around 14 MPH and put a lot of spin on the ball. When I throw the reactive resin I normally hit between the 2-4 pin. I've tried adjusting my stance, adding power, and decreasing my spin, but I can't establish anything consistent. I'm open to using a newer ball as long as I can control it. My bowling center keeps the lanes pretty dry (most days).

I don't know specific stats for ball performance or my throwing style. I can say I'm a righty, I stand with my right foot between the 2nd-3rd dot (3rd being middle). My aim is at the arrow just right of center and usually breaks at the second furthest to the right arrow about 60-65% down the lane. Like I said, it is very gradual and doesn't break hard late or anything. I'm open to all suggestions. I used my friend's Storm Trauma and it hooked way too much to give you a reference. Thanks in advance.

Well if you like urethane balls, I'd say stick to that.. The Storm Natural or the Hammer Blue Hammer are good current options in the urethane range

I agree with Drano. Also the Natural Pearl is a great urethane choice (actually a better choice for higher rev bowlers).
