what to choose
« on: September 04, 2004, 04:03:01 AM »
Hello,
could you please help me out, I want to buy a new ball and need some advice .

I play mostly on medium-heavy oil patern.
have the bad habbit of bowling to hard (+/- 28km/h) but willing to work on this.
I'm looking for a ball with a relative nice hook potential, not to extreme, or one with a nice arc.
(What would be the best option for a "speedy" player ?)

 could you recommend me something ?

for the moment, i am thinking about triple X or Xtreme.

 thanks in advance

Hi there. First of all a word of advise. Learn how to adjust your speed. Go to stormbowling.com and click on to pro tips. You will find valuable tips from the pro's. Adjusting your speed is a critical asset when you can master it. I have people I bowl against and can't adjust and I eat them up. As far as the ball, don't know much of the XXX-extreme but I do have the Triple-X. It took a couple of weeks to get used to it but now it is my #1 ball. The past couple of months I've avg 215. I even shot 690 and 712 respectfully in state tour last month. And you know how state shots can be. Good luck

If you are looking for Storm, I personnally have a TOO HOT that I used as a first ball for a while.  It is good for medium oil, but you will need to learn the speed thing for heavy oil, but I liked it because I really didn't need a second ball.  I could shoot strikes and 10 pins (which I can't shoot very good anyway) with this ball.

The only reason I went with a stronger first ball was my house was flooding the lanes and I was tired of shooting str8 at the head pin.

If you want a Storm ball that is stronger, I would also suggest something from the xxx line.
