Very good video, I agree with you 100%! Keep up the good work🎳
I used short pin not urethane on dry lanes
I got an Eternity pi a month ago. Wild asym with flare that hooks sharply when it grabs the dry part. From your video, urethane doesn't grab so much and runs to the pocket much smoother. Correct?
They are supposed to hook earlier with less reaction down lane.
@@seanwillis8483 Thanks
I love my pitch blacks, my go to ball when I need to control the pocket
So do you use more than one? I have a 15 lbs that is a little heave for me. I have a lighter reactive ball that can strike but it doesn't leave as good spares one it misses. The pitch black seems more consistent than other balls I have used.
@@seanwillis8483 that's correct, I have 2 pitch blacks, have a weaker layout and a stronger layout. But I swapped to no thumb a couple years ago, and I'm more rev dominant then speed. Why the pitch blacks come in handy especially short patterns
Is the purple hammer a great ball?
The best ball ever.
@@lesgrosshans2266 what about the new black pearl urethane hammer?
I don't know. I don't have one. I would like one. It looks good on CZcams
Urethane is useful on sport patterns, but I cannot see why some bowlers have to use it on house shots.
They may be too rev dominant for the speed they throw and cannot control a reactive ball. When the lanes are oiled now, the backs are stripped of oil. In the past lanes may only be stripped once a week. Urethane will help push that oil down the lane to help give hold when you need to switch to reactive. Another problem is that those rev dominant bowlers could use reactive, but they would be so far left, the ball return gets in the way of making their normal approach.
Reactive also pushes the oil down the lane, it just takes longer for it to do. The problem with reactives are that they can dry the lane out so fast, you have to continually move left (for a right hander) and may have trouble striking from those steeper angles. Either way, bowling is a game of continual adjustments and if you learn how to do that, you will bowl well regardless of what ball somebody else is throwing.
Is a purple hammer a good ball use in house?
@@ripvanrevsi dont get why ball returns are on the approach and arent back more in the areas where you'd be sitting? dont know if im the only one with that thought
@@fatcatsquekyyy7752 less distance to carry it and less track saves money on build
@@itsCurtisAvilayes I have two of them
Low flaring equipment also pushes oil down the lane!
So does high flaring equipment. It just takes longer. You can bowl on lanes where there is very little carry down and the oil just goes away.
