A little boy looked up at me once and said "So you must be The Striking King."  Coolest thing I've been told!
I'm pretty positive I'll shoot 300... just not sure when.

The pro shop I work for did sell one to a customer.  Right when it was released.  The ball did not impress me too much, but I have only seen him throw it on a fresh shot.  I would assume from what I have read and seen that once the conditions dried out a little the ball would shine more.  It looks to  me like just another great mid performance ball from storm.

Good Luck and Good Bowling,
Michael

I drilled a Pyro up 2 days ago and threw it in league last night for the first time. I used it in games 2 and 3 shooting 235 and 248 (not bad considering I had no real idea what kind of reaction to expect). After league I used it in practice and shot 278 (left a solid 9 pin).

This ball goes very long, is very smooth and then, much like the Hammer Doom, makes a hockey stick trajectory into the pocket. However, it does not overreact like the Doom when conditions break down.

The ball looks almost exactly like the original X-Factor in its coloration.

This is my first experience with the Fire line of balls from Storm and I'm quite impressed.
