Arsenal Building Part 4: Assembling an arsenal for league.
In this video I will discuss my process and ball choice for my league season. I bowl in a second shift league and this makes my ball choices a little more difficult from week the week. I will explain how I decide which pieces will fit in the league arsenal as we cross the bowling center during the 36 week league.

Punched one Pete nice ball
Awesome. I like this one lot.
Why pin down on harsh thanks
Do you mean on the original Harsh Reality? This is the Pearl in this short.
How does this ball compared to the Proton Physix?
Weaker. The Ion Pro Max may be closer to the Proton Physix.
How do you think it compares to the Summit Peak?
It’s earlier than the Summit Peak.
What would your league arsenal look like?
Not sure still trying to decide since I bowl in a second shift league. The newer stuff was too strong last year so hopefully the house shot is more kind to me this season.
Have ordered a summit Ascent and can't wait to drill it up. Good video and I like your bowling style.
Thank you for watching. I appreciate it. I hope you like the Summit Ascent.
Hi Pete nice video i have the Absolute Power early results nice Phase 2 love it.R2S come on Astro Physix, hy road pearl and og hy road Phase 5 AWSOME. Question im kinda in between go straight start leaving tens go five left tens im kinda in NO MANS LAND. 😂 Any tip will help. Thanks 👍.
To help with 10 pins when you play too straight the ball may be slowing down as it moves into the pocket. You can adjust the surfaces of the balls and that may solve the problem. When you move left you will need to ball up to help blend out the pattern. As I move left on house patterns I always use a stronger ball to help create shape. I hope this helps and thanks for watching.
@PeteDohanJr THANKS when I go left and can get that Zen cooking look out😁. Asym balls when we had volume great but last couple years everything syms. Trying absolute Power. 😁
How does the Ascent compare to the tour dynamx both weaker covers. Also the cores are relatively strong.
I think the Ascent is way better than the Tour Dynamx. Wasn’t a fan of the Tour Dynamx too early and slow for me.
@@PeteDohanJr how much flare you see on the Ascent. Since the dynamx was a low flare ball. I find the dynamx not responding very well in oil.
@@robinbargo4417 a lot more than the Dynamix. I have no problems with the Ascent cutting through the oil on the house shot. The Dynamx never hooked down lane at all since it didn’t flare a lot. The Ion Pro is a closer comparison to the Dynamx than the Ascent.
@@PeteDohanJr that has been my issues with the Dynamx just never finished for me. But I have used it on wood lanes that has been a different story. Looks like the ball comes to life.
I do like the core of the dynamx. I have the UC3 and totally love the ball motion
What does your league arsenal look like?
What grit pad did you hit the harsh pearl with?
I scratched it lightly with a 1000 abralon just to get some of the polish off. I didn’t want to make it too dull since it’s such a strong asym pearl.
@@PeteDohanJr I hit mine with very light 2000 and it doesn’t hook enough for me. My house shot is flatter and higher volume. I’ll try 1k and see if it works better game 3 of league
Thank you btw
Virtual energy blackout goes way too long it's best used when the lanes are hooking or really dry
Yes I use the Virtual on longer patterns or later in blocks during tournaments. Thanks for watching.
How do you deal with the burn? Are you able to move in?
Yes. During qualifying I can move left and use the Phaze II and Ion Pro.
Nice run. Man, that looked fun. Keep on Push'n Pete. Great post.🎳
Thank you.
What would be a good 1-2 punch for this ball
A good ball down from the Magic Gem is the New Summit Ascent.
Great bowling Pete. You were bowling against a legend and held your own. Kudos to you.
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Where is this place
Florida
Pete Dohan and Jon Rakoski competing and doing great!!! So glad to see u guys from Strikes and Spares Naples FL! If u remember Mike Thomas thanks for helping and coaching me to be a decent bowler.
What’s up Mike? I hope all is going well. You’re welcome for the help. Thanks for watching. I appreciate it.
I am actually surprised how nice you were able to get the Harsh Reality Pearl to work for you on the house shot. Based off the specs, I assumed it would be too much core and too much cover, but I guess I was wrong! It definitely shows though that getting the surface right for 1) you as an individual bowler and 2) the lane conditions you're on makes such a big difference, doesn't it? A few weeks ago I drilled an Attention Star and found it was a bit too clean and too flippy for me out of the box, but once I just cracked the polish a little with a 2000 pad to give it a little more traction while keeping most of the polish on, it absolutely came to life. It started shaping the way I wanted, reading the midlane while still really coming off the spot hard, and I've been striking a ton with it.
The Harsh Realty and Pearl are too strong for me on house. When I do videos for the stronger asymmetric pieces I try to film on the fresh house shot when the bowl opens. I don’t have a lot of balls with the polish still on then. With all the different conditions I bowl on polish doesn’t give me a predictable ball motion. Thanks for watching. The Attention Star is a great ball. Glad you like it.
I left the 2-4-5-7-10, that was ugly! Is that because the ball was out of energy?
I think it’s more the ball is confused at the end of the pattern because of the carry down created by the balls going down the lane. There’s not enough friction so the ball wiggles and when it final hooks it’s too late and doesn’t go through the pins correctly.
your mom is proud
How would you compare to a altered reality thanks
I think this is close to the Altered Reality. For me the Harsh Reality is quicker down lane than the Reality so the pearl will be quicker off the end of the pattern than the Altered Reality. Thanks for watching.
Nice video this or DNA Coil. I have a lot a sym .pearls. Thanks 😊
They are both about the same strength just depends if you want a smoother controllable ball motion in the Absolute Power or a quicker down lane motion of the DNA Coil compared to the Absolute Power. Thanks for watching.
Nice video. I have every sem.ball phase 2 ,5 Zen ,Zen Soul,hy roads,. Haven't had a asym since dark Code. Either this or Absolute power your thoughts. Thanks.
Just order my journey. It’s to bad they discontinued these
I was sad to see it get discontinued so quickly as well. I like the shape it gives me in a strong symmetrical piece.
Nice video sir i have the Phase 2 and am getting this drilled the same. 50×4and three quarters ×35. Thanks 👍
Awesome. Thank you for watching. I appreciate it.
Ion?
Yes.
Great video Pete! Ion Pro looks amazing!
Thank you.
Hey Pete, you might not remember me but I couple years back on the last season of LG Travel you gave me a ball, and now that I’m getting back into the sport I started throwing it as my main strike ball, and I rolled my first 700 series, just wanted to thank you for that :) good luck on the pba50 ❤
Ooo also, you mentioned this ball is a “benchmark” ball, and that it fits almost all styles, so would that mean it’s a good ball for 2 hand bowlers as well?
Glad I could help. I would probably be able to remember if I knew your name. Yes a benchmark ball would be good for all styles even two handed.
@@PeteDohanJr my name is Jayden, also thanks, I was thinking of getting one of these
@@Dsplayy What's up Jayden? I hope everything is going well. Tell your parents I said hi.
I just got this ball drilled and I'll throw it in summer league. I find all my reacta gloss balls I hit with a 3k pad. I have an eternity, tnt infused and now the gold label. I'm hoping 3k is perfect for game 3 in league. TNT infused will be in a different bag for another league night.
I liked the shape of the Gold label but it was too clean for the longer patterns for me. I drilled a VEBO in its place. The TNT Infused was too slow for me. Not enough rev rate for that one. 😂
@@PeteDohanJr I'm mainly using these balls in league, I can see how this ball can be slow. I don't have very high revs either. Low 300's and a good ball speed of 16-18 still. I'm not quit 50, but, my revs and ball speed went down for me.
I bowl a little faster than you with a little more revs. But! What you explained on surface is identical to what I'm seeing.
Awesome. Thank for watching g and commenting. I appreciate it.
The original Cell is my favorite ball I've ever thrown, and the Hyper Cell was also wonderful, so I just went ahead and ordered this one as soon as it came out. It's waiting at the shop to get drilled up right now actually. However, I did get to throw an X-Cell last weekend before mine arrived! There was a Storm Matchmaker event in town that day that I found out about last minute. The good news is the X-Cell seems to be everything I hoped it would be -- the same type of motion I got back in 2008 from the Cell, but with the strength to handle today's oil conditions. It has enough teeth to handle oil downlane, but it doesn't want to use up all its energy early like my Gem. I saw that same motion you described, with the ball reading the midlane in a way that you can visually see it start to rev up, then it waits a moment before it really grabs and turns left off the spot, and it just keeps going with really impressive continuation. I haven't had this type of motion in my bag in years since I dropped to 14lb and began rebuilding my arsenal from scratch, and it's really been something I've been trying hard to find without luck until now. Also, as someone who is a bit rev challenged, I do not mind one bit seeing you stay around 2nd arrow in your review videos, because that's where I end up usually having to play as well, and it's a nice change of pace from most reviews where guys with 400+ rpms are getting in front of the ball return by the end of the video, since I am not really learning much from that!
Awesome. I’m glad you like the X-Cell. We are in the same boat. I can’t throw the Gem on house or on patterns because it’s too strong as well. I appreciate the feedback. Thanks for watching.
Can’t wait to get mines 👏🏾🔥
I hope you like it.
@@PeteDohanJr I definitely for sure am sure I will and will send you a video of it once I do some reviews on it 👏🏾😀
Great video Pete! In your opinion would this be a nice replacement for the Proton Physix?
I think so. This is the closest ball motion to the Proton that we have had in the line. I loved the Proton.
Got two coming. Love anything E- Trax
Awesome. I hope you like them.
Great video. So I’m 51 and low rev guy, u think this ball would be perfect for me. I basically bowl on ur THS. Thanks
I think so. This ball seems to matchup better with our rev rate category. The Gem and Pi were too early and slow for me.
NOOOOOOOOO
So were you practicing?
We talking about practice. I hope all is well back in the homeland.
Love those messangers
I known you do. 🤣
Rolled about 7 to 8 games with it but it’s not curving the way I want it to but idk why
Could be a few reasons. You could change the surface of the ball to help it read the lane better. I don’t have many balls with the out of box surface on them. Thanks for watching.
Hi, how are you? I watch other people bowl on TH-cam. This is my first time coming across your channel. Very interesting way you do it compare. Especially multiple bowling balls from the very top to the bottom I think I just got in the Bowling too late last year. I just wish they’d never discontinued the proton physix, the supernova and the infinite phyisix. The first two are your classic strong asymmetrical shape. The gem is too strong while the other ones are a little too clean but when you do need an asymmetrical pearl, the infinite in my opinion looks symmetrical, but it’s not if there’s any discontinued 15 pounders out there I would love to have at least one of the solids. I just said if not the infinite or both eventually to my arsenal
The Virtual Energy Blackout is close to the same ball motion as the Infinite Physix just a little longer. I use the Absolute Power as my strong asymmetrical piece since the Gem is too strong for me to use. Thank you for watching and the comment. I appreciate it.
I have like a 140 average after a few months. Had a clean game and maybe one 200. Bought the rip, 3rd game with it a 253. Used it at league and had a 233 which made my score 293. Best beginner ball ever.
Awesome bowling. Congratulations. I’m glad you like the RIP.
Thanks mate! Time to work to a better handicap now. A lot of shame with the pins I carry.
Hey Pete r u a proshop owner road or lighting house shot thanks
I do not own a pro shop. Lightning Blackout for the house shot. Thanks for watching.
Keep up the great work Pete!
Thank you.
Pete, great bowling on the PBA50 this year. You came so close to making a TV show! Would love to see that. I just got The Road and love it. Thank you!
Thank you. I appreciate it. I’m glad you like The Road.
Must be those new side kick boards John installed
I hope so.
