IMO, I don't think that it is a PBA truck call.  I think you would have to talk to the Storm rep, his name is Chris.

I would agree, the reps have control on whats on the truck, the guys on the truck just drill, so I would talk to whomever the rep is

It will also depends on which ball it is.  Robert Smith is the Storm staffer using 16lbs, so the truck is limited on 16s.

Does the PBA have its own drivers for the truck or, do they contract out that to another company? That would be a cool gig.

There are other bowlers besides staffers using Storm equipment.  The stuff on the truck is available to them as well.  It probably ain't quite as free, though.

I don't think they'd just swap you, but there's probably more than a few 16# pieces of equipment on the truck anyway.

From what I have seen, they contract them out for all 3 trailers they have (2 pro shop, 1 PBA equipment)
