Need some opinions here on what to get. I would consider myself a tweener, ball speed around 16.5, axis is 4.5 x .5 up. Here is the current arsenal:
Raptor - 2000 dull - 5 x 4
Raptor Attack - 2000 polished - 4.5 x 3.5
Sigma Hybrid - 2000 polished - 4.5 x 3.5
Thrash - 4000 dull - 5 x 4
Silver Recon - 4000 polished - 5 x 4
Here is what I am considering (I want to get 2 new balls for about $100 each)
Original Cruel
Original Primal TV4
(current pricing on these is fantastic!!)
Ascent Solid
Ascent Pearl
Thanks in advance!!

Looking on what you already have I would definitely jump on a Solid Ascent. It would fit between your Recon and your Thrash quite nicely.
For the other piece, it just depends on what gap you're looking to fill. Obviously, I'd suggest the 2 Cruel. It's something special. It'll be the most angular ball you'll have for oil by a longshot. This is an incredible ball.

Bowled in league tonight on a destroyed shot with my Ascent Solid (3rd game anyway), bowled a 176. I certainly doesn't act or hit like an entry level ball. It destroys the pin deck!

Definitely going to grab a 2 Cruel when they come out. Ok, so a solid Ascent to fit between the Thrash and Recon sounds good. How about between the Thrash and Sigma Hybrid? What is the reaction difference between the Primal and original Cruel? Is one more angular than the other?

Original primal is going to be for straighter angles. Mine fits under my thrash. Dont forget about the sigma tour. Ball is a beast and outside of conditions being a little heavy in the back, cant find a reason not to throw it.
