How to make the perfect league arsenal

Learn all you need to know to pick the best bowling balls for you!

Great videos. I've been learning a lot from you. Can you recommend a strong asymmetrical preferably from storm?

Is there like a formula to determine if your speed or rev dominant or matched? For example, 15 miles an hour 300 RPM might be matched. If that was the case I could see 100 RPM per 5 mph is matched and anything higher or lower is either speed or rev. Dominant? Those are numbers I made up and I have no idea if they're close to accurate but I'm just wondering if there is some sort of a formula to base it on. Also, not sure if the lanes are wood or synthetic. It looks like it's wood but maybe synthetic looks like wood also. I asked the pro shop guy. He said that he didn't know if it was wood or the length or the pattern lol

Thank you sir, love your videos!

If you could provide your opinion on what kind of balls I should be looking for that would be awesome. My main struggle is with my ball speed very low about 11-12 mph. If i dont stand way left by the ball return the ball will hook too much. lots of Brooklyn strikes happen as well. Im working on picking my speed up but what usually happens is i move my feet quicker and dump the ball in the gutter. Any thoughts?

I'm a stroker I have exotic gem, denfender , knock out, !Q tour ruby, tropical surg, sneak attack, pitch black,

[@polarbearchad5871]

Good information. As I carry 1 ball + spare ball

[@wrongfootbowler]

I carry 6 one is a spare ball so 5 I guess

[@slimcheezy44]

thoughts on this arsenal: Phaze II, UC2, IQ tour solid, pitch black, spare ball

[@michaelcoffey]

That's a good arsenal that covers a lot of conditions. Remember every company has good bowling balls!

[@billycrowden34]

If you are a speed dom player I would have a ball that’s stronger than that uc2 as a compliment/stronger option but that’s a good lineup

[@jimcurrie]

I have a roto grip gem and shot a 734 series

[@brunerclement]

DNA, !Q Ruby, Pitch Black, WD.

I'm 66. 14-15 mph, low rpm (200-250?). On Fresh oil, I start with Radical Crypto (solid sym, string cover) for oil traction and smooth curve. As lane dries out some, I move left. When the lane becomes too dry and closes my Crypto pocket window, I switch to Radical Innovator (asym pearl, sharp hook) to skip through diminishing oil and reach my breakpoint for the Inno's hockey stick hook angle into the pocket. When lane becomes too dry for the Inno to reach the proper length, I switch to Radical Sneak Attack (sym hybrid, mild hook) and move right and play straight up the lane from 3rd to 2nd arrow. If lane is burnt to begin with, I start with Sneak Attack, play right\straight and cope, relying on my Radical Spy to keep me sparing.

Keep up the good work man. More tourney videos! Even if it is on house. Love the form and your ball roll. Keep at it stud, look forward to seeing big things from ya!

[@ravenamongtheclouds7404]

My current arsenal is black widow 2.0, dv8 warrant hybrid, jackal ghost, rhino pearl, purple tank, mix. Any thoughts.

[@donkeydiehard879]

That's too many bowling balls for house shot.🤣 Jk I own 22 bowling balls. I bring 5 to house shot leagues. Seems like you have a good variety that doesn't over lap a bunch. Probably about time for a new pearl soon. That rhino is super old isn't it? Recommend global 900 zen. Best ball I've EVER thrown. Which is saying a lot.

[@MiddleAmericanMan]

Great info. I would like to have a three ball arsenal. I throw at the second arrow most shots at 16-17mph. I throw no thumb. I have a storm mix and a roto grip rubicon right now. What do you suggest for my third ball? Thanks!

[@donkeydiehard879]

I'm sure you've had this answered by now. It is nearly impossible for anyone online to recommend a ball. He touched on this in depth. There are too many variables to account for. Like lane material, oil type, oil volume, oil pattern/length, what other bowlers are using, where are bowlers rolling, your axis tilt/axis rotation, rev rate, humidity, temperature etc. A pro shop operator at the bowling alley you bowl at would help you best. That being said, you likely need a "benchmark" variety bowl. Benchmark is different for different people. For you an IQ nano pearl would be perfect. with no thumb you likely have more revs and a sideways roll. Nano pearl is somewhat clean through the fronts but will still blend the oil without being jumpy. For me it's a global 900 zen is my benchmark. That ball would likely make you miss the head pin.
