 I am glad that it's a different color, because if your going to throw a Gold Ball, you better be able to strikes with it and often as that color draws attention.

Know one cares about the ball that your throwing "till" you strike often with it.

I guess typing the words, "30th Anniversary", on the ball also allowed them to increase the minimum price of the ball from $142.95 to $154.95.

Also looks like Buddies has a WWRD of 11/24/15, not October as in the subject of this thread.

Man.....as good as the IQ Tour Pearl has been for me, there's no way I would miss out on this.  I would probably get 2 and even if I have to pay a premium I'm cool with it as my shop is amazing and these will eventually earn back any investment in them. 

Hopefully it's a full release to the public. 

I do wonder what the lava spice smell is.   :P

+1….
 
My last sanctioned 300 a few months ago was with the Gold IQTP. I won't need two (that might be overboard), but one will be a nice addition for when my Gold finally wears out.

I've lost many bowling balls to cracking over the years, but I nearly wept when my goldie split like a watermelon. I am really surprised by the people who said it was a turd for them. Granted, I didn't like mine at box finish, but with a lightly scuffed 2000 to take some of that shine off, that ball was absolute money for me!

That's the surface I keep mine at, 2000.

Buddies jumped the gun and fixed their release date from 10/24 to 11/24. Note: Storm NEVER releases a ball on a Saturday  ;)


The Storm Copper-Pearl looking, Lava Spice scented Tour30 is the 4th announced 30th Anniversary ball from Storm.


1st - White HSP (not for sale)
2nd - Code30 (overseas)
3rd - Teal30 (overseas)
4th Tour30 (USA)


In addition to the Tour30, there will be bags and jerseys to commemorate Storm's 30th anniversary.
