I think you guys messed up just letting you know the lane condition of this ball in the video says medium to heavy oil. i thought this was supposed to be a dry lanes ball?

@OMGziTsHev 130's sucks. You should try hooking the ball, this way the ball will come into contact with more pins,increasing the chances of striking and bowling a better game!

How does it react when the ball has a tiny crack near the hole
-
you guys should make of video of you guys shooting spares or when you leave stuff you should shoot i personaly wanna some spare game

Does this go longer than the tropical heat?

Received this ball from someone a couple weeks ago. It was always accurate and often got strange pin action but it had potential. I bowl with a fourth finger (pinky) so got that drilled today. Improved over 70 pins.

Dang, Tony! You're almost playing 4th arrow with a slingshot oob? That definitely helps explain why you guys labeled it a medium-heavy oil ball, I guess.

i absolutely love this ball. it hits hard and you can rely on it when you dont throw it perfect all the time.
I currently have a storm tropical heat and find it too strong of a ball for me to pick up the 10 pin to spare. I'm a tweener and when i throw for the 10 pin I just cant get it even when I try and keep my revs down. I was looking to buy this or a tropical storm. Do you have any other suggestions on balls and what do you think would be best?

@bassfishing060 It sounds like you need a plastic ball for spares. Something like the Storm Black Ice or a Brunswick T-Zone would be great!

Can I just use this for a straight ball? I have no idea how to hook and I'm pretty good just doing straight bowling. I usually get 130's at the end of the game. I will someday learn how to hook though.

@OMGziTsHev This would be a great option for you then. Any ball will go straight if you throw it straight, but the Slingshot goes very long so it would make it easier to keep it on line throwing straight. It also will give you the option to learn to throw a hook in the future.

how do you know where to get that 4th hole drilled? im looking for a new ball, and i want something thats going to hook good on pba style lanes, with my ball now, i cant get any hook, i could get hook with it on the old wood lanes, but not the new pba style lanes

@nickgt111 Not sure what you mean by 4th hole. Are you referring to a balance hole? That depends on the layout and specs of the bowling ball. Your ball driller will put one in if necessary.
As for hooking on different lanes. It may be the oil pattern as well. Wood lanes are known for making bowling balls hook more because they cause more friction. Going to different lanes will cause you to need different equipment. Match equipment and style to the lanes. Not all balls work on all lanes
