Perfect name for this ball. It rolls good and is perfect for dry to really dry lanes !! Plus a bonus in that it is great for 7 and 10 pins for those of us who forgot how to roll straight!! It carries down great,easy to control and hits pretty hard. Great job by Storm.

I just purchased the Natural and have used it one night, but it performed very well. It has a nice smooth arc to the pocket when rolled correctly. I was bowling on some oil and it still did very well. I think I am going to like it.

I'm a senior bowler with a slower ball speed and in the centers i bowl in they don't use much oil.The ball reaction is very smooth and stronger than you'd think.

I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD TAKE A STEP BACK TO THE 90'S. I AM A SR BOWLER WITH SLOW (13-14 MPH) SPEED AND HAVE TROUBLE WITH BACK END REACTION USING THE REACTIVE BALLS. I ORDERED A 14# NATURAL HAD IT DRILLED USING THE #4 PATTERN AND SHOT 269-725 OUT OF THE BOX ON A PAIR OF LANES THAT MY OTHER STORM REACTIVE BALLS BROKE WAY TO MUCH. I AM PUMPED AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE NATURAL WILL MAKE MY OTHER BALLS OBSOLETE. IT HAS A VERY CONTROLABLE BACK END BUT STILL HITS LIKE A BRICK EVEN AT 14#.

I got this ball for burnt lanes. This is a great ball way to go STORM. When it's time for this ball to come out of the bag most guy's are crying it's to dry. That's when I make a move right and play the burnt breakpoint and oooohhhh baby is this ball buttery. Look out 3rd game superpot here comes daddy.

I purchased the Natural thinking that it would allow me to perform well on low oil patterns in situations my Storm Shift Gravity tended to over-hook. I drilled layout #4 on the Storm drilling sheet.
Anyway to make a long story short, I don't use my Shift Gravity anymore. After only eight games with the Natural, I've bowled my second highest game (248), and my highest series ever (697). That might not seem like much to boast about, but this is after holding steady at an average of about 175 for nearly two years.
The urethane cover-stock reacts predictably under nearly all oil conditions, allowing me to play my game with minimal compensation for lane conditions. My drilling layout, combined with the length that the Natural gets from its U2S cover allows for a consistent and controllable line. What's more, I no longer have to throw cross lane to hit the pocket. I can approach from my dominant hand side and play a slow arc that hits hard. Since minor changes in lane conditions barely affect the roll of the Natural, I also find my line stays more consistent throughout a series.
This ball is highly forgiving for inconsistent players, and controllable enough to be thoroughly enjoyed by league bowlers. I suggest it for high-rev bowlers who want are tired of constantly adjusting for changing back-ends and drying lanes.
