Storm Fight a quick discontinue?
« on: March 11, 2016, 03:17:51 PM »
I realize it came out a little over a month ago, but I haven't seen one in any of the leagues I bowl in and haven't really heard anyone talking about either.

Does anyone else think the Fight might be a quick discontinue?

I don't think so. I like mine a lot and there's a few other guys throwing one around me that like them

Tons sold around my area. However, the Phaze is a dud here.

More like the phaze, I feel the fight will stay.  The reign didn't do overly well especially against the hyroad, and they kept it around.
In the bag [Infinite Physix, Volatility Torque, Night Road, Phaze III, Burner Solid, Hustle AU]
*Now Testing* IQ Ruby, Renevant, another IQ Tour solid
Coming soon...???

I am still trying to figure my Fight out.  Sometimes it hooks more then my Lock and other times it hooks less then my IQ Tour. Have shined it and now took it back to OOB. Was hoping for benchmark but so far no way. Seems pretty condition specific at least for my game.

Re: Fight roll/drill pattern

Fight has a big core, high RG, so the ball naturally creates length. Add a long pin to PAP drill and I can see some serious over/under out of the ball.

I drilled mine with 4 3/8 pin to pap, pin is drilled out in my ring finger. I have the option of adding a low hole to make it a little stronger if I want

Both the Fight and Phaze are different from most of what is on the market right now, and the problem is people trying to force them to be similar rather than letting them be different.  People are trying to force a big backend move out of their Phaze instead of just letting it be smooth, and people aren't paying enough attention to the core numbers on the Fight.  It gets its midlane read from the flare created by the differential, definitely not by the RG, so if you go too weak with the pin, yeah you're going to get some over/under.

The fight is a really piece.  I really like the ball motion.  It is different for me than any other storm ball I have.

I was suggested to drill a 14 lbs Fight up 4 X 4 X 2.....I shouldn't see any over and under with that Pin to Pap should I?

Anybody have both a Hyroad and a Fight?  Looking to fit a ball between my Fight and my Ride. Too big of a gap in my opinion. Looks like they are similar but I am hoping the Hyroad will be less hook then the Fight. Start with Fight and either go down to Hyroad/Ride or up to IQ Nano/ Lock. Nothing bothers me more then having 2 balls that basically do the same thing. Looking for a comparison between the Fight and the Hyroad. Also considering the Hyroad Pearl to fit in between the Fight and Ride.    Thanks.

I think the Sky Rocket would fit nicely between the Ride and the Fight.

I haven't thrown either Fight or Phase, but I believe Storm is trying to put out something that might control the lanes and bit more on flatter patterns yet still give hitting power.  These balls are designed to roll heavy and hit without having to open up the lane from coast to coast the way you can on a house shot.
