Title: Your 2009/2010 Storm Arsenal...
Post by: Nor Cal Bowler on August 27, 2009, 02:39:05 AM
Just for my THS pattern leagues I plan on having in the bag...

Furious and Fast both drilled neutral at box finishes

..F  F

  ...P

 ..CG

  ...T


Natural (Drilled label at box finish)

Either a 2D, T Road Pearl, or a Secret Agent just in case in the bag if I need something stronger.

Spare ball will be in the locker so it will already be there...

What will your arsenal be?

Scott,

I fixed my original post. They are both the same layouts pin down... Threw both of them on the scorpion pattern, have yet to throw them on a house shot though. That's gonna happen tonight as I just had them done Monday...

Medium - heavy:  Hy-Road drilled label leverage OOB
Medium - light:  T-Road Pearl drilled label leverage (pin slightly above ring finger on this one for a little more length) OOB
Light - dry: Rapid Fire Solid drilled with negative pin layout and shortened ring finger (modified sarge easter): 2000 abralon.  This ball is also good for reverse blocks.

Nothing for the heavy oil because I never see it!

Rapid Fire Solid
Agent
Reign
Ice Storm

Fill in the gaps with a couple "B" balls and that will cover everything I will bowl on this season.

Plan on just 3 total ball's all season unless something crack's on me.

T-Road Pearl
Fire Diablo
Ebonite Spare ball (had this one since I was 18)

I'd like to get a T-Road Solid but the Diablo has only a handful of game's on it.

If needed I have other brand equipment that I can switch out if I start to have problem's with storm not reading the lane's too well. Brunswick and Hammer.

This one (http://"http://www.bowlingballmall.com/bowl/product.asp?dept_id=87&pf_id=3027&mfgid=13&Shopper=D7VDG3NERRRN8NCXQWNLMBXVTF500439").  16LB

They are hard to find.  So I'd recommend the Ice Storm or any viz-a-ball that's cheap.  The problem w/some of these viz a balls is that they can be expensive.  I found a deal on mine a couple yrs. ago.  Ebay might have some.

Thanks Monster, I definately like this one over the new one.  But, I have to get my finances in order before I buy.

I know what you mean about how expensive they are, I am actually surprised that they don't really come down.  I mean the new storm one came down from 120 to 96 like 2 months ago.  I will see once I can afford one.

Virtual Gravity
