57239 - Faball / Re: Red Pearl Hammer info.
« Last post by MJS73 on Today at 12:08:10 PM »
Thank you for all of the advice. I think I will pocket my money.
Getting a pearl (Blue or Red) Hammer was a bit sentimental because my grandfather gave me a blue one and bowled my highest game with that ball.

@BowlingForDonuts - I looked up that Purple Hammer on bowlingball.com and it has a perfect score of 142.9. My current ball I am rolling is the Burgundy Hammer which has perfect score rating of 128.7. The purple is listed for dry lanes while the burgundy is supposed to be for medium-heavy oil.
I am having trouble keeping the burgundy on the dry lanes I bowl on for league.

So I am confused. I thought as the perfect rating went up, the more the ball is supposed to hook. Are there other factors to help determine hook factor of a bowling ball? Am I missing something?

Thank you for input.

No one is questioning that the numbers were "real" but there is no questioning that the numbers were manipulated.  The VAERS database, for example, was without a doubt manipulated. Most people were diagnosed using a PCR test, a test that was normally run at 10-12 cycles but was bumped up to 35 cycles (or 40 in some cases) in order to turn up any minute particle of a Coronavirus. Add to that Kary Mullis, who invented the PCR test, had already publicly declared that the PCR test should not be used for virus detection because "PCR tests can detect 'anything in anybody' and can't tell you if you're sick, because it can be misleading without additional information". And then remember that the federal government coerced social media sites to take down any posts that contradicted the federal government's message (see Missouri's lawsuit v. Biden) and it should be clear that people were being manipulated into a state of fear, a state of fear that still exists in some people today, apparently.

And to anyone in the healthcare industry that says that they know firsthand how serious things were...ask your hospital administrator how financially successful your organization was during Covid. Then ask yourself if that organization would have turned down such a financial windfall. No for-profit organization (or not-for-profit, either) is going to turn down the truckloads of money that the government and pharma industry were delivering on a daily basis.  The numbers were most definitely real but not at all accurate.

And then ask yourself why the official definition of "vaccine" was changed during Covid.  Vaccine used to be defined as a substances that provides 'immunity' to a specific disease," reads the text of an Instagram post shared Nov. 4. "Now, Merriam Webster has literally changed the definition of 'vaccine' and removed the 'immunity' portion in order to possibly cover for the fact that the COVID 'vaccines' don't actually provide immunity from COVID.

As a first responder I definitely wont take your word for it. Seeing near empty hospitals and ERs because people were scared to death to leave the house was real. Seeing people die at home from strokes and heat attacks and other preventable health issues because they were too scared to go to the hospital was very real.

The virus was real, the actual numbers was far less. What most people saw and lived in their day to day did not reflect the news and the governments portrayal because it wasn't the real world the rest of us were living in. Remember what you will it doesn't make it the reality the rest of us went to work in and lived in daily.

I saw a lot firsthand as well, as I maintain the hardware and software for the Immunization database for my states' department of public health. In seeing the numbers of vaccines given out (both COVID and non-COVID related), and how much our governor depended on the numbers he was getting from that database, which were all based on doctor and hospital visits, I was seeing quite a bit with what was and is going on. The numbers were definitely real.

30293 - Roto Grip / Re: Hustle X-Ray
« Last post by Onefrombills on April 25, 2024, 03:49:58 PM »
Hey everyone, I'm back with another ball review, and this time it's for the Roto Grip Hustle Xray Solid In 14 pounds this ball is wrapped in the VTC (Versatile Traction Control) Solid Coverstock and comes in 4000 grit with an RG of 2.55, Diff of .030. Depending on the Hustle Xray’s surface, bowlers can use this on medium oil conditions. There are not many balls that can cover a variety of conditions, especially at an entry-level price point. To give a comparison the Hustle BRY will roll just a tad less through the front of the lane compared to the Hustle Xray. This two-ball release will be a nice transition when the "benchmark" balls are too early. The Solid and Hybrid will naturally be longer and more robust. BOWLER STYLE: RH - Power Stroker Rev Rate: 320 Ball Speed: 15-16 PAP: 4 7/8 right 5/8 up. #Storm #VISE #BowlersChoiceProShop #BabesAndBallsBowling #IAmBowling (coupon code HIRSCH 20% off at checkout)

Hey everyone, I'm back with another ball review, and this time it's for the Roto Grip Hustle B-R-Y Hybrid In 14 pounds this ball is wrapped in the VTC (Versatile Traction Control) Hybrid Coverstock and comes with Reacta Gloss with an RG of 2.55, Diff of .030. Depending on the Hustle B-R-Y surface, bowlers can use this on low-to-medium oil conditions. There are not many balls that can cover a variety of conditions, especially at an entry-level price point. To give a comparison the Hustle X-ray will roll just a tad more through the front of the lane compared to the Hustle B-R-Y. This two-ball release will be a nice transition when the "benchmark" balls are too early. The Solid and Hybrid will naturally be longer and more robust.

12930 - Storm / DNA Coil by K. Cordy
« Last post by 9orbetter on April 25, 2024, 01:32:42 PM »
LANE CONDITION
Tested:
42' Medium/Heavy THS
League:
42' Medium THS

LAYOUT:
VLS - 4 1/4 x 3 3/4 x 3 3/4
Dual Angle - 40 x 4 1/4 x 63
Reaction: Smoother mid-lane, Hard Arc

Storm's description:
Not every bowler is made the same and not every bowling ball is made the same. As you discover your personal bowling DNA Profile, you can expect this new bowling ball to give you a great read of the mid-lane. If you drilled the original DNA, try the same layout on your DNA Coil and expect the same early-revving action, but with a longer, more angular ball motion we all look for as the lanes start to break down.

My review:
Drilled exactly like my solid which has so much control, The Coil is on steroids. Response to mid-lane friction is quicker and more pronounced but with the same control as the solid.
I played longer in the track area during league (Bolero) which was a surprise due to the high friction league breakdown. Not the same as I tested on(different alley). I was also able to open my angles without given away carry. Typical light hits was above average. I see this ball as a compliment to the solid and ahead of my VEBO.


The Storm DNA Coil is a testament to innovation and performance, precision crafting and engineering instills trust in its reliability frame after frame. The core's dynamic design and weight block configuration creates a powerful angular motion to maximize pin carry.  High versatility of the cover and the ability to match up to various lane conditions is a plus for all styles of bowlers.
