Purchased ball late July 2009. Rolled a sanctioned 300 on Aug 5th. Excellent ball for house shot...my last three league series were 699, 736, and 735. All bowled in one week! Not too bad for a guy who will be 75 next May!

Larry Lichstein recommended I have this ball drilled out a certain way, and last Tuesday proved his tremendous knowledge of the art of drilling to accommodate the style. Bowling in a PBA experience shot with gutter-to-gutter heavy oil, this ball showed its strong back end, playing between 8 and 18. In over 40 years of bowling, this ball is even better than the Angle was in it's day. Thanks for the keys Larry! Tom K. Spartanburg, SC

This ball reads the midlane exceptionally well to be a pearlized ball; mostly due that it has a hybrid cover. This is a must have; especially if you have the Virtual Gravity; which compliments this ball beautifully!!

This ball is awesome. I bowled my first 700 series. I can use this ball inside and swing it out from 5 to 10, or play outside and go up the 5 board. I have thrown Hammer and Columbia, but now I am strictly a Storm equipment user, but no affiliation at all.

All I can say is wow!!! This ball hooks and hit a ton. I am not a spot bowler, I just throw to an area. I am right handed and stand 5-10 boards left of center on the approach, throw is somewhere between the 5 and 10 board and this ball will find the pocket, it is very forgiving. I carried a 220 average last year and was down around 200 after 7 weeks, with the virtual Energy I shot a 749 and 793 the past two weeks.

Beware of adding rubber grips. Thumb hurts from throwing. But it's like buying new shoes. It has to be broken in. I was told to develop a new throwing habit. This may be the problem. Nevertheless, this ball handles curves like a Porsche. The ball does all the work. Definitely a product I can get used to and play with for a long time.

I am somewhat new to bowling second year in leauge 165 average best game 250 but I have had nothing but problems with this ball. Played three games and shell cracked almost in half. Although storm did replace the ball without problems. bowled maybe 20 games or so and now I have six big chunks out of the shell. it's not the bowling alley because my spare ball is flawless. This is the third time I had to repair my ball's surface.

For the second series was standing on 29 and throwing up 15 out to about 10 for a smooth arching hook. Hits like a ton of bricks.

Storm has done it again!!! They keep putting out great equipment. I've heard a lot of negative feedback about this ball. All I have to say is this is a must have in any bowlers arsenal. I am a league and tournament bowler and this ball goes everywhere with me. This ball has a great back end movement.

I got this ball because I wanted a ball that would break later and it definitely does! The ball hits like a train and rarely leaves any 10 pins. Be careful on dry lanes because the ball can be very difficult to control.

as a 160 bowler, i was looking to upgrade to a more aggressive backend ball. let me tell you this ball is everything it says it is. the first game i rolled with it was 8k's i finished with a 595, the following week i rolled a 690, and this week 647...this ball hits with tremendous power, pins explode as it hits pocket, also i can keep same line throughout the night with only slight adjustments. i can now compete with with the really good bowlers here on long island.

this is good ball. when thrown right can really carry pins all the way to strikes. i have this bowling ball at 14 lbs and it is good enough for me. i would love to have this as a 16lb bowling ball but i can only carry a 14lb ball do to me only being 13 yrs old. when i received this ball it has increased my average from 135 to 146 but it only went up by that much because it was towards the end of my league. for example insted of me bowling my average in the last 4 weeks since i only bowl on saturday i had about a 167 average. thank for another great bowling ball storm!!!

My old ball cracked and I bought the STORM Energy. The ball will get down the lane and really hooks to the pocket. You can't look at the pins and try to throw it in the pocket. If you hit the right spot for you, It will give you a big hook at the end and carry through to sweep the pins. You just have to trust the ball and let it do the job. Great Ball.

I am a pretty good bowler averaging around 216 and I am in the military so just recently got back into bowling and was using Storm Core Power for the past 7 years and still held my average of 216 but tonight I finally got my ball drilled and used it an hour afterwards in a 9-pin tourny just for fun. Basically with this ball there was no need for it to be a 9-pin tourny because I averaged 240 over 5 games of which only 5 weren't real. This ball has maximum forgiveness whether your throw it outside or in it will find and destroy the pocket. Best pin action I have seen as well. Once again Storm hasn't let me down.
