I'm a bit confused. The title says "New dry lane bowling ball", but then you made a comment on how you couldn't play out in the dry due to the coverstock still being too aggressive. The ball looks good but, i'm not sure if i can trust that this ball would be a good choice to use for when the house, tournament, or sport shots dry up. I'll look at this some more and compare it to the Ocean Vibe by Hammer. thanks
When lanes develop into being dry, you are much further inside and going left to right through the dry part of the lane. This ball performs well at that time. I was bowling on fresh oil and the outsides is where the dry is. If I start it in the dry, then keep it in the dry, much more up the lane, then yes it will over-hook. However, If I was swinging it steep to the outside then it did perform well. When a pattern gets dry, it's blended out more but still hooking. Using a 15-20 board swing usese physics for the ball to naturally not hook immediately. Hope this clears some things up. Thanks for watching!
