gave my ball a hot soap bath the other night because i think it's become pretty impacted by oil and wooee mama did that make a difference. strike rate shot up like a rocket this week. my second game I ended with a 223 i think but i hit the pocket pretty cleanly on all 11 of my first balls. felt good again.
avg is hanging out at about 191 but there's a lot of room to grow if my ball moves like it did this week.
need a little insight on this, wondering what the steps you took to doing it or if I should just save the trouble and call up the proshop at little apple to have em roast it over night for me.
My process was dead simple. I filled a mop bucket up in my bath rub with hot water and put some dish soap in there. Then put my ball in the bucket and soaked it for 20 minutes, rotating the ball some every 5 minutes or so. Then I took the ball out, wiped it down with a towel, and let it air dry over night (hard to get in the finger/thumb holes).
I didn't tape anything or remove finger tips or anything like that.
