What balls should I take to the PBA experience league?

[Crusher279757]

Each week my house has a PBA Experience challenge, so I decided to give it a shot this Wednesday. I was wondering which and how many balls I should bring? They are using the oil pattern from today's show I believe. Here is what I have:

Anger
Toxic
Doom
Fury
Cherry Vibe
Twisted Fury
Spare Ball (of course I'll bring this with)
Black Widow

Balls I have that need work done:
Black Hammer (needs slug)
No Mercy Beat'n (needs slug)
Black Widow Pearl (needs slug)
Absolute Inferno (needs slug)
Neptune (needs complete plug and redrill)
Mercury (needs complete plug and redrill)
T-Road Pearl (needs complete plug and redrill)

Heavy: Anger
Medium/Light: Cherry Vibe
Spare Ball (of course I'll bring this with)

Black Widow: How's it drilled?

[agroves]

If it is the Cheetah, you'll probably want a tame drilled aggressive ball. It will bleed energy at the breakpoint and be alittle smoother down lane. Shiny and flippy is bad.....

i'd take every one of those to combat the patterns!!! lol

Crusher for the Cheetah being it is a 35 foot pattern and plays outside , you would probably want something that is strong and can get a good angle to the pocket from out there. If you try and play this pattern like the Shark from inside you will probably end up going high all the time because there is not enough of a hold area on the indise on the Cheetah. Try and use something strong with the Mass Bias in the strong position. I don't know how any of your balls are dilled so it will be a guess on suggesting what ones.

Depending on how they are drilled, I would bring the No Mercy Beat'n / Anger / Black Widow / Black Widow Pearl.

[Crusher279757]

My Black Widow is drilled with an aggressive backend. My Black Widow Pearl is drilled with a smoother arcing motion. I definately want to bring my Doom because that thing doesn't snap really hard.

Anger

Twisted
BW
Spare

Really? I was thinking something more along the lines of this:

Black Widow
Anger
Twisted Fury
Fury
Cherry Vibe
Doom
Spare ball

Out of the 6 strike balls, which 1 should I take out?

[BubbaRay]

I would Take the vibe out and out in the BWP

Yeah but my BWP needs a slug and I highly doubt I will be able to put one in before Wednesday.

Id say keep the vibe, the length out of it will be nice for when the shot moves father in away from the gutter.

How's this sound?

Twisted Fury medium - heavy
Anger medium - heavy
Black Widow medium - heavy
Fury medium
Cherry Vibe light - medium
Spare Ball dry

Cherry Vibe for Cheetah. If having problem with Cherry Vibe not being enough ball somehow then go to all purpose drilled ball. Nothing too strong.

Anger for Shark. If you are having problems making Anger do what you want, go to really dull ball. For me there was not much difference in whether I used spare ball or BW, neither was hooking noticeably.:rolleyes:

Viper -- was like a really touchy house shot. Just hit what you are looking at and you'll be ok.

Scorpion -- I have no idea. Scorpion bit me so hard and injected so much poison that I had to be hospitalized.:eek:

------
In my opinion you'll want a ball dulled to about 360-500 for when your ball is not facing up to the pins.

Back that up with a ball at 800-1000 for when the dull ball is using up too much energy.

Twisted Fury medium - heavy
Anger medium - heavy
Black Widow medium - heavy
Fury medium
Cherry Vibe light - medium
Spare Ball dry

Its not so much the ball as the drilling and surface. IMO.

Twisted Fury: All around drill. Surface OOB
Anger: Drilled to roll really early. Surface OOB
Black Widow: Aggresive backend. Surface is at 1000 or 2000 dulled
Fury: Smooth arc drill. Surface OOB
Cherry Vibe: drilled to go long. Surface OOB
Toxic: Aggressive backend. Surface OOB
Doom: skid/flip I think. Surface OOB

[dw800seeker]

I like your arsenal. I would just sand up one of the other balls you are not using regularly as your crazy long oil pattern ball for pba shark and scorpion patterns.

I think your Fury balls, Anger and BW will fit somehow on Viper and Chameleon. For Cheetah I like your Fury. Doom and Cherry Vibe.

Take 'em all. You can never bring enough.
