In Brunswick Land, that's the Wild Thing.

What he said...although the Wild Ride might fit, too, depending on the reaction shape you're seeking.

^^^ no thanks all the new storm stuff is horrible IMO except for the OG.paradigm I will never drill another storm junk ball again I'm a brunswick guy. And to those who noticed I posted in the Brunswick section. I already have a wild ride but it's negitive pin and only works good on house shots is the wild thing more ball?

Perhaps it'd help if you stated what about the Storm ball reactions you don't like so we know better what you're looking for.  (And I'm personally the opposite, I won't touch Brunswick stuff anymore and have nothing but Storm and Roto in my bag at the moment, but I also don't throw the ball like you!!)

I would do a wild thing or a wild ride.The wild thing will read the lane a little sooner while the wild ride will be a little cleaner through the fronts.You cant go wrong with either ball they are 2 great pieces.

Add another one in favor of the Wild Thing  -

The WT is a great ball and I happen to believe that it is one of the strongest pearls on the market right now.  It has a very consistent backend reaction and it hits like a tank!

However, I do own the Virtual Energy too.  The VE is stronger than the WT, but then again, their covers are not quite the same.

Honestly, I don't think you will be disappointed with either one.

Wild Thing! I still have one more to drill but I have one with a pin high and it back ends more than anything before!

no company makes "junk" thats a very ignorant statement. if you have a problem with storm then thats fine but they make the best strong pearls and thats what you said you wanted. i have never seen you bowl but if you want strong perhaps a 4000 abralon seige polished would be nice. it gets through the heads well even for such a strong cover. its the best brunswick piece along with the rattler which you already have. good luck!
