Need Some Help
« on: February 12, 2006, 01:55:56 AM »
I'm trying to help a friend out.  He has a Storm X-Factor and is doing great with it.  He graduates college in a couple of months and his dad & girlfriend are each wanting to buy him a ball.  He is a strong kid, throws the ball long and it turns back hard.  He has seen me roll my Dark Thunder and says he wants one but that ball arcs to the pocket and he throws more skid/snap.  I don't wanna steer him wrong so I need some ideas of balls that would compliment his game and his X-Factor.  The X-factor is only about 6 months old.  Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance!

FIRED UP!

Best ball for the buck for what you described your friend liking. F.U. hooks down the lane, dead skid-snap reaction.

Will the Fired Up overlap his X-factor?  Is he gonna see a noticable difference between the FU and the X?  Just don't want to get him something that will do what he already is doing.

Thanks again for your help and the responses.  They are greatly appreciated!

The Fired Up , IMO, would be the best for your friend. If he feels there's overlap, which I don't think there would be, he could always put a spot of polish on it. I'm not sure I would, but people all think differently.

Hope that helped in some way.
