Benchmark Bowling Balls look Different NOW! | Storm Ion Pro vs Hammer vs Motiv | The Hype

- The term benchmark is constantly throw around and it definitely has different meaning for different styles of bowlers. For me these Aysm bowling balls with low differentials fall into the benchmark category for me. Being ball I can start with then judging the lanes whether I need to go to something stronger or cleaner to help me compete on the lanes. The Ion Pro fits the bill!

I love my Envy Tour. Need to get a case of them before it gets discontinued.
congrats on the look at that PBA event, well deserved - i've told you before a couple of times but you are the hardest workin man in showbiz (Ron H)
HI RON!
@@ScottAndersonBowling lol sup buddy
Smooth, controllable, versatile. In between slow response and quick response. That's what I see when I watch you throw those balls. Ideal benchmark.
Agreed!
Looks great. Might be a replacement for my black venom that’s getting old and tired. I just find it funny that storm tried to promote this ball like they reinvented the wheel 😂 Storm, yall just made a good version of something already out there
Shot 188, 234 yesterday, usually av 170,, ION pro 🔥🔥💯
Or you got better ?
Thanks for showing the releases from different boards
No doubt!
Charles hittin' a ton!!! Ion Pro looks good. I think I rushed in getting the Duo for that slot in my bag.
Throw those on the B&W filter, but the Envy is earliest, the Ion is next, and the Black Venom is longest. Of course, I don't know if you put all the surfaces at the same grit before you shot this video; that would be the real test of cover strength. Those are three great bowling balls. From what I see in this vid, the Ion gets the nod. And Storm's deep dive video showed that when you put the Ion's surface at 1000 grit, it is a Phaze 2. The ball is a two-fer, fer sure.
Great review!
Love my envy tour my first 600 game Almost ended at 700 finished with a 672 before that ball my highest series was a 595
Been waiting for this 1.
💪🏾
CHARLES!!! Those three still look like the truth…but ION…(if I counted right)…2-3 shots that it didn’t recover from deep…but still tried to carry. You are making me think hard about adding this one. Nice work as always!
Awesome review!
Awesome video as usual!
Would love to see you compare the ION against the shock! Would you say the Ion is strong than the shock/IQ tour?
Hey, Hutch…what are my options to get in contact with you or Gerald about building a jersey if I don’t have social media such as Facebook?
Im a 12 mph slow rev bowler but my new ion pro is a strike machine.
Think ill just stick with the venom
Snek ball good
I wouldn’t be mad at you.
I got the tour d and your correct you have to throw it straight
TDX is the most frustrating ball in one of my bags. It rarely comes out except for when I want to torture myself with trying to be perfect. Straight for about a game. Lane shines and never wants to hit the pocket flush nor carry.
@@brandonhuggins1736 I totally agree. The worst ball ever for me. I never know what it's going to do. I drifted away from SPI equipment and became a Motiv and Hammer guy. Got super excited over the TDX based on the hype. A 100% "bum" of a ball on sport and house. No more SPI products for me.
@brandonhuggins1736 I've had great success with the tour dynamics its very versatile for me I can play with it anywhere on the lane
@@donrichter9859best ball for me
I’m not even gonna look at this ball twice until I hear about if it’s still a good ball a few months down the road, I knew the tour dynam-x was gonna be a flop and I ain’t expecting much better here, this cover is better so it has potential, but I’m still gonna wait and see
I'm seriously thinking about getting this ball. Do you think it's worth getting if you have the envy tour?
In my opinion no, unless you just want to drill them radical different. To get a different shape.
Which one would is more versatile the Envy Tour or the ION
That was solid Charles
i was just about to say, can you bowl on some sport patterns
On the way.
Great video!
How does the ion stack up against the optimum idol? Regarding benchmark balls
Idol is much earlier! Feels like the idol has a stronger cover!
How would this compare to the absolute power?
Ion will be cleaner and more shape downlane when lanes transition.
Would this be a good ball for high rev players? I’m a ~430 rev bowler according to Specto. Have issues with most of my balls going Brooklyn if I don’t get the speed up. Current arsenal: DV8 Chill, Storm The Road, Hammer Effect, Phaze III, spare ball.
How do you rated against the IQ Ruby? I have the Dynam-X Tour, which has become my goto ball.
TX-16 cover is at least a full step up from R2S on the Ruby. Core is also more dynamic for the Ion Pro compared to the Ruby
@@rb8999 ok ty.
Ion a lot stronger than the ruby. You could start with the ion than get into the ruby later in league set. Tour dynam-x is much earlier and more forward. Ion is going to allow more bowlers to play more parts of the lane with more ease.
@TheHype-Bowling thank you. I'm figuring on a line up for Nationals
I've got all three.
Is the term "benchmark" used for balls suited for game 1 on a house shot? Or does it mean, use during practice to determine what ball to use on sports patterns?
I use the term benchmark like all-purpose balls. They can work on just about everything but will give you a clearly picture of what may work better on a given condition.
I will be getting this.
Why did you decide on a 5" instead of a 4" or 4.5" on the ion?
Asym ball. All asyms get this layout. And symmetricals get the 4.5
blend wet dry?
Ok i like all those.
Does the Ion Pro fit in between the Optimum and Low Flare?
Yes
That ball looks like it just pounds the pocket and is very forgiving.
Agreed, they work very well!
Which cover is the strongest?
I feel like that envy tour has the strongest cover.
@@TheHype-Bowling thank you, appreciate your reviews. 🙂
Bro, you comparing Storm’s benchmark hybrid to solid balls? I think for Hammer you need to break out the Hazmat. Idk crap about Motiv
Look at the numbers bro, the Ion falls into this category not a symmetrical hybrid, that numbers are not even close. Hazmat has 0.055 diff. Hazmat is more of skid flip ball than a benchmark ball.
@@TheHype-Bowling ooo…. I missed the mark there. When I hear benchmark, I automatically assume all things symmetric. But the Envy Tour is a solid and is less responsive vs the ION. Perhaps compare the ION to the Arctic Vibe? Numbers aren’t quite the same but it’s an Asym to Hybrid compare. I think it’s unfair to have a solid Asym continue off those deep angles.
too much talking dude
Fast forward button to the good parts!
ION i$ _CRAZY🤪
Which one would is more versatile the Envy Tour or the ION
I feel more comfortable playing further right with the envy tour than I do with the ion, the ion is much sharper in my opinion.
@@TheHype-Bowling That is a good insight! Now what about the same question but with the envy tour and black venom? Which one is more comfortable from further right?
