    I agree. High price for a lower tier ball is also why I stayed away from the new blackout…

    There are a ton of bowling balls I suddenly want when the Closeout price gets attached to them. But I'm so cheap I bought my own used drill press, because I knew I'd be saving $65 on every new ball I drilled.

    I also fall into the bought one before it was gone category. The journey is such a versatile ball for how sharp and clean it is. Also one of the best scents ever. Sucks that storm seems to be focused on raising the bar for ball reaction and price points and not just the ball reaction.

    I think the journey would've been great for me if I didn't already have the fate. I thought the fate and journey were too close to each other in ball motion, so I didn't see the need to buy basically two of the same ball.

    • @LukeRosdahl
      @LukeRosdahl  3 дні тому

      Nah, quite a bit different balls, I loved the Fate, Journey was stronger, much sharper, and a very different reaction shape.

    Where does one pick up discontinued balls on the cheap? I used to be able to do that when I threw 16 pounds, but since switching to 15 I’ve still ended up paying full price for recently discontinued balls.

      You'll just have to watch for the sales, some of them get discounted instantly and some don't, some you have to wait a little on.

      @LukeRosdahl  3 години тому

      Lol you could ask 10 different people and get 10 different answers. Theorem, Virtual Energy Blackout, Attention Star, Intense Mindset, the new Scorpion Strike that's coming, etc. Scorpion Strike is probably the best combination of price and performance though. Won't find anything better for cheaper by a long shot.

    I’ve been wanting to ask you, have you ever thrown Pyramid bowling balls? I’m wanting to get one but not sure, probably because I’ve never seen them on tour with any pros throwing one. They are priced so much lower than the brand names. Makes it easier to be able to purchase a couple of them for the piece of one. Also I wanted to thank you for having Angel throw, it helps a lot to watch a female do the same as you. 😊

      When I first started bowling I had a couple. I had the Curse and the orange Pathogen X. They were great out of the gate for me, but turned to paperweights when I changed the surface on them. They basically became burnt up lane balls or spare balls, so I got rid of them when I dropped to 15lbs. My wife also had a Curse and after changing the surface it became her spare ball.
      However, I also bought urethane Pathogen Plague ball and it was GREAT. The urethane I like better is the Black Hammer. . I have the Black Widow Urethane, Radical Double Cross, and the UC3 and I used to have a 16lb Purple Hammer. The Pathogen Plague reaction is very similar to the Black Hammer urethane. For me, the (Pink) Black Widow urethane is very strong. The Double Cross I like a lot too, but it definitely hooks more than the Black Hammer and Pathogen Plague urethane.
      I thought about buying another urethane Pathogen Plague, but went with the Black Hammer instead. I think they are very close reaction wise though and one is $55 bucks cheaper. One day I still might, but I will never buy another reactive resin ball from Pyramid- the covers do not do well with surface changes from my experiences.

      I've tried a bit of everything with Pyramid balls. Not bad for the price, and some are really good despite the low price. The Pathogen Plague solid urethane is an amazing urethane ball for $90. Not Purple Hammer stronger... closer to IQ 78 territory, but much a better urethane for a house shot than the name brand urethanes. Can't recommend that ball highly enough for house shots. The Pathogen Asym is a Black Widow Solid level ball, at only $80. Not even kidding, that ball is so good for the price. The Path Rising balls aren't bad, basically Hustle level balls for $20 less... though I'd still pay extra for a Hustle. I also had a Blood Moon Rising Pearl, which is a pretty strong pearl asym for $120.

      @@willjames6437 thanks for the info. Heck maybe for 129.00 it’s worth a try. I’ve fallen in average but due to injuries. Plus I’m a senior citizen..lol hitting towards 70 in January, but I can still throw a 15 and carry a 200. This past season I struggled due to heel, and bad forearm to the bicep muscle strain. Not fun at all. I went down to 14 and maybe that’s another reason I struggled…🤷🏻‍♀️

    Saw Belmo leave it on the rack on TV until it was over in the tenth. Off the sheet. Now off the shelf. Nice even piece. Oh well.🎳
