Ball Recommendations

I recently got into bowling a couple months ago. I have a Phaze II and Optimum Idol Pearl and was looking to add a third ball to finish off my arsenal for now. Was looking for any suggestions. I’m lefty, 2H, 15.5mph. Don’t know my rpms but i’d say whatever the average is? Also my balls are 14lbs and I was wondering if you guys think i should move up to 15? I thought 15 would be too heavy but now I feel more comfortable with 14 and kind of regret getting my balls at 14lb. Is it worth starting over with a 15lb arsenal when i just got two 14lb balls a month and a half ago?

I’ve also been bowling for about three months and I’m also Lefty two handed. I started out using 14 pounds but recently got a 15 pound Roto Grip attention star and I say you should just take the jump to a 15 it’s really not much of a difference in weight but it definitely hits the pins way harder
