Title: Timeless
Post by: bambam300300@aol.com on February 17, 2017, 07:11:51 AM
The Timeless bowling ball is an amazing bowling ball. My PAP is 11/16 x 4 5/8. I drilled my Timeless 4x4x2. I wanted an all-around aggressive layout so that I can play multiple angles and multiple patterns. Well I must say I got what I was looking for and then some. I play 30 to 7 and sometimes I can play 35 to 7. I have missed inside around the 12 board and the read this ball gave me was incredible. When the Timeless came off the corner at around 5 to 7 she did not have an uncontrollable hook but an aggressive, strong and predictable hook. When I missed inside the ball actually had the mind to sit and wait and the reaction was amazing. She sat till the backend but did not overly snap but read the lane well and hit the pocket as if she came off the corner. The Timeless keeps the pins low and has amazing pin reaction no matter what angle you play from. This ball is a must for tournament play and leagues.

The BIG wheel!

I have missed inside around the 12 board and the read this ball gave me was incredible.

That's 5 board miss room.  A whole ZONE down lane!  Even more impressive if this miss room is on sport patterns.  It would be nice to have 5-12 at the break point at Nationals this year.....

When the Timeless came off the corner at around 5 to 7 she did not have an uncontrollable hook but an aggressive, strong and predictable hook.

Buzzword (according to google):  a word or phrase, often an item of jargon, that is fashionable at a particular time or in a particular context.

This is a particular context.

When I missed inside the ball actually had the mind to sit and wait and the reaction was amazing.

it ACTUALLY had the MIND!!  That ball knew where it was and that it wasn't time to hook.....

She sat till the backend

It's a female ball in case everyone didn't know.

but did not overly snap but read the lane well and hit the pocket as if she came off the corner.

"As if" - 1992

The Timeless keeps the pins low and has amazing pin reaction no matter what angle you play from.

Or miss from......

This ball is a must for tournament play and leagues.

This could be a fair point.   :P

Here is the moral of the story:  It is what it is.

**On Edit:  I do this in jest and with a fun spirit and it's not mean-spirited but I do make a broad point in there. :)

GoodTimes you are a hard person lol. I like my Timeless and it is my first Storm ball. My timeless snaps real hard and go threw the pins. I can't find the pocket yet.
I think if this was the HY Road everybody wanted and it didn't have Belmo logo on it, as a hammer head I think the people who are in love with storm would have had this ball as the best ball in the world. Just my two cents.

Like I noted, it's all in good fun.  I'm sure the Timeless is a good ball under the right conditions.  I myself choose to throw Storm/Roto products.  I do wonder what this ball would look like on shorter patterns with just a little surface on it...

From the review, it sounds like every ball I have ever used on a THS.

Are you a two-handed bowler?  I just can't figure out how your PAP is so high above your ring finger.  Where do you track?
