Looking to add some options to my current set up for upcoming tounraments and leagues and would like some advice on what would go well with my current line up. I would love to add all three of the new releases to what i already have but unfortanetly when you work on an ambulance finances get pretty tight. I ask you all only because I am weak when it comes to understanding what the ball will do based on specs (RG/pin length/finish) and layout and I dont want to pick up another ball thats simply going to miror whats already in the bag as far as reaction goes. My QZ1/SR2 both give me a pretty smooth arch while the GT1 is more skid/flipish. I thought maybe the RX1 for drier conditions or just something to help me work on playing straighter, also kicking around the idea of either the tz3 (found a few online, i understand that there hard to find) or a Cruel for something real aggresive? I appreciate any insight that you guys can give.

The RX1 would be used for later blocks and open play.
The Cruel will be for the tighter conditions.
The TZ3 is a good medium condition strong backend ball. There is admittedly something neat about having a limited edition like that.
Your decision should be guided by what reactions you feel you lack, what conditions you feel you can't hit.

Currently when the lanes are dry or have a very low volume I have nothing that alows me to stay with in my comfort zone, i have to move real deep and swing more the of the lane then i'd like. The same can be said for the exact opposite, if they flood the lanes i cant seem to get enough reaction while in the comfort zone. I would assume that the RX1 will help me when im over reacting, I guess im torn between the C51 and the TZ as to which will be better when im lacking reaction.

Admittedly here in Rochester, you will more often see dry conditions than oily.
I'd say a punch a Recon RX1 now, Cruel C51 in a couple of months when funds allow.

Justin, are you drilling at bowlers world again? with it being a new release id rather someone drill it up that knows what it can do.

I believe I'll be back there in mid August.
I'm going to MCC full time this fall, and working at the shop part time.
My schedule will most likely be Mon,Wed,Sat 10-6, Tu,Th 6-8pm. This is still not finalized but should be real close to when I'll be there. I'll keep you up to date.
