    This Ebonite Polaris Hybrid looks awesome. Love the color combo. I've only had two Ebonite bowling balls and they were the Earl Anthony Magnum 7 (shiny rubber) and the Earl Anthony Magnum 12 (urethane). So my favorite is the Mag 12. Keep up the good work Mr. Raymond

    My all time favorite Ebonite ball by far, is the original Game Breaker, which I STILL use regularly to this day. Ball is like a cheat code. Fifteen years old, with easily over a thousand games on it. Never resurfaced and only de-oiled once a year. Ball is in great shape and still has plenty of life in it. Extremely versatile on so many patterns I've bowled on over the years. My only regret is not buying a second one back then.

    • @Mikey-1990
      @Mikey-1990 2 роки тому +2

      @@machinethesun9243 I swear this ball could go another thousand games if it wanted. Ridiculous longevity. My sport shot league I bring a few other balls with it, but my house shot league it's the only ball I bring. I can use it all three games no problem. A good portion of my arsenal actually consists of pieces from the 2000's. So many good balls from that era that can still hold their own.

  • @KennyGrinols
    @KennyGrinols 2 роки тому

    The interesting part is that your 2 layouts, from a core dynamic standpoint, are nearly identical. Since the PSA is the high RG of the ball (Y Axis) its strongest position is 3 3/8 from your pap. Your old 45x4.5x45 layout and the new 25x4.5x45 layouts, despite the 20 degree difference, both orient the PSA .5 inches away from the 3 3/8 'leverage' point, just in opposite directions. 45x4.5x45 = 3.91" PSA to PAP and 25x4.5x45 = 2.87" PSA to PAP.
    The difference you're seeing on lane, is likely caused by axis migration across the pin to spin line, altering the ratio of flare in the dry vs in the oil. Basically, the migration path is getting closer to the pin as teh ball travels down lane, which is the 'continuation' you're seeing. In one of your next videos, you should put a piece of tape directly on the Pin, and see where the top of the core is as the ball goes through the pins/off the lane. Then do the same thing with one of your old 45 degree layouts, and compare them side by side. (Both need to be Asym obviously, and similar strength core/cover if at all possible) But a cool experiment either way.
    You work the proshop, you could even get the armadillo and measure the axis migration if you really wanted to. Pap at release, pap at last wet flare, and pap at final dry flare. Connect the dots, measure between them, and document their relation to the core/pin.

    Picked this ball up and averaged 10+ pts above my previous league average for several games. Last night went to league and threw it and threw 2 of my lowest games since I started back bowling (several months). I was furious/frustrated because I don't know what I was doing wrong - the stupid thing just wouldn't hook! I ended up switching to my Hammer Raw entry level ball and had more success with that last night. Still bowled pretty terribly all night.
    Any ideas, anyone? Why would this happen? Same oil pattern every week (supposedly). It just *wouldn't* hook. I was missing my mark a lot too, which is probably at least half of it. When I was missing I'd hit brooklyn a lot of the time, but when I *did* hit it, it'd slide way too far down lane and never really hook much, making me come in super light or even missing the pocket to the right (right-handed). It was befuddling and so, so frustrating to me!
    I was standing around 20-25, and shooting around 4-8 (moving around). Maybe I should try moving further left and shooting further left?
