    Louie,
    Here's some food for thought as, I hear you detailing the characteristics of each bowling ball, what's difficult to understand and see is your experiences launching each ball down the lanes, what I would find more useful, if I could see a comparison of each ball's migration down the lanes sync together and knowing what each ball's perfect scale rating percentage is, the manufacturers factory finish for optimum performance based on the suggested lane conditions (understand when you set the cover stocks at the same grit you are forcing each ball to have the same characteristics which would be different if you used the manufacturers suggested factory finish cover stock which goes against that ball's optimum performance rating), the cover stock name(such as eTrax-P18 vs Xtreme Trax Pearl) and the differences between 1 cover stock versus the other balls cover stock as I think that has a significant bearing on the ball's overall perfect scale rating along with the core's engine inside each bowling ball, as I would also, like to know the significance of the Product Line Name as each bowling ball produced falls into a certain category for that company( what is the significance of each category and what do they mean?). These are questions that I ask myself all the time as I have no answers for so, "Thank-You", in advance if you can answer and address these most important questions and situations? Also, I know I wrote some requested info a couple of days ago however, I added more detailed information requested so, I could make a better informed decision in buying new equipment (bowling balls). Again, Thank-You, in advance.

      @@LuisNapoles the other idea that I have is no one ever explains the ratio percentages on each hybrid bowling ball so, if I'm in the market for a new hybrid bowling ball I need to know it's ratio percentages so I can match it to the current lane conditions based on the length of the oil patterns, how many milliliters are in the oil patterns and how badly has the oil pattern been burned as I understand most hybrid bowling balls are good when the lanes are transitioning so, I need to know what's the ratio percentages are on each hybrid bowling ball to help me in choosing the correct ball for the tasks at hand as you know it matters if the ball is 2 parts pearl and 1part solid or vice versa depending on all variables in helping me choose the correct ball.

      @@carlosgreen3551 I made a 3 part series explaining why the cover stock designators don’t matter at all. You should definitely go watch it. As an example the idol pearl and idol cosmos both have the same core and pearl covers and roll completely different from one another.

    Not sure if you've heard of JoPo grips interchangeable thumbs but they are AWESOME. Basically takes the best parts of all interchangeable thumbs and makes a glorious interchangeable thumb baby. Can use the same size but from switch grips, just have to move the collar for because jopos are slightly deeper. I can't say enough good things about the system but more importantly the way the business is ran. I get absolutely nothing out of telling you about them. I'm fairly certain they would work with you in one way or another.

    Excited for the Cosmos. I’ve been using an Overseas Black Idol Pearl for two years in league already when they break down late in game 2, and it’s still going strong. Would be nice to start the night out with the same shape, just a little stronger. Rather that than a UC2 or something like that (even though i like it). The OG Idol was a little to early for the fresh, so I never had much use for it.

    I'm curious how you think the Idol Pearl would match up against the Burner Pearl. I think the cover says the Idol should be earlier and smoother. But then it has a higher diff so? Would that make it sharper? Would they be in the same spot in a six ball bag?

    • @LuisNapoles

      Diff will influence hook potential. RG influences early or long so the burner according to the core will be longer and more angular
