    Absolute has a fairly high intermediate diff. I didn’t look at the numbers prior, so it was just a guess. Don’t want to misinform the people!

      Darren tang what ball would you try using if you had 17ish mph ball speed and 500 rev if I can use my pitch black and start right of 18 I'm good but that normally only 1st game

    • @anthonyesquivel4093

      Would you suggest this ball to be in a 6 ball arsenal. Cuz I’m trying to make a 6 bag arsenal

    Darren I really hope you have a great contract worked out with Storm. You've done well with your marketing and you've got ALOT of activity and eyes on you. These kinds of reviews are most definitely helping to generate sales.

    Yo Darren, me and my girlfriend love your content, super entertaining and informative. I was wondering if you could make a video for us bowling newbs? Can you try to define or, at least, in your opinion, explain some of these average bowling terms that everyone uses like strong, weak, long, short, clean, etc... it gets a little confusing to me

  • @24tristanm

    Perfect.. thank you for this review. You have a way of making bowling jargon understandable to the avg person. Keep them coming!

    4:25 For anyone who thinks this doesn't make sense, he's absolutely right. In my leagues I started noticing my solids not hitting flush anymore somewhere in the second game. I thought it was just my wrist getting tired and not snapping as much as it should, but trying to get more hand in it typically changed nothing (and left me with a sore wrist). As someone with low-med revs, I didn't think I could possibly be burning up, but it turns out that was exactly the case - I started balling down in later games and got my angle back.
    If you run into that situation, try it!

  • @brentdonhauser
    @brentdonhauser 2 роки тому +1

    Ball reviews on house shots are difficult to really get a good idea on a new ball. Like it’d be great if someone did ball reviews using two lanes. One with a short pattern and one with a long pattern. Of course at this point layout might come into play but there’s ways around that.

    • @Buster-YT
      @Buster-YT 2 роки тому +2

      Jr pro shop does videos with a house shot and a challenge pattern. They use all sorts of balls from a bunch of different brands.

    • @BasketBowlers
      @BasketBowlers 2 роки тому

      Luke Rosdahl was doing reviews on a house shot and an USBC sport pattern. Now he'll be using Kegel's Chromium pattern, which isn't as hard as the sport pattern but definitely not as easy as a house shot.

    @joshhowell307 2 роки тому +1

    Hey man. I appreciate your hard work and knowledge of the sport.
    I’m a new two hander. I’m having a difficult time being consistent. I throw the ball at about 17.5 mph. High rev rate.
    Can you give me some tips on what ball to start with. How long to stay with it and then the next ball to transition to?
    Here’s my arsenal.
    Storm fate
    Iq tour solid
    Proton physix
    Pitch black
    Phase 2.
    Thanks man. I really appreciate any advice you can give me. Keep up the great work

    • @nolanhartl4
      @nolanhartl4 2 роки тому

      Alot of bowling depends on the pattern difficulty and length, and more so how we throw the ball. Kind of an impossible question to answer. Following the Proton with the Phaze II appears to be a decent option, just being they are both early to read the lane. Grain of salt from anyone that isn't you or a coach though, because we don't know anything about how you throw cheif.

    @superbikerdr 2 роки тому

    Darren, We love the videos and learning from all the tips and ball videos. I have a question about the Absolute, in your opinion do you think it's a good ball to replace the phase 3 my wife currently uses. In the league, she opens with her Proton Physic and then transitions to the Zen and then has her Phase 3. Looking for a new Hybrid, what do you think?
    Thanks, Sam

    To me this looks similar to an intense fire type ball. Asymmetrical hybrid that is a little rounder than other asyms and I love my intense fire. The specs are pretty similar but it’s a different core.
