My favorite is the Seek and Destroy, but I've been off of Morich for a while.  Of the stuff that is currently out there, I really like the looks of the HyRoad.

Lately, it is the Columbia 300 U-Turn Particle.

Before I had to retire them, Columbia 300 Game and Hammer No Mercy. Both because of cracking. I can still use the Game, but I just need to glue the grips back in. lol

And also, the Storm Supercharge.

I used to have a Seek and Destroy but like you, I haven't gotten a Morich since maybe a year or two ago. I actually bowled with it a few weeks ago and did alright (250, 226, 249). I saw the HyRoad it looks kinda nice. I kinda like rogue cell. how do you feel about that?

The Rogue Cell looks pretty good.  All the stuff in the cell series seems to have been well received, and the Rogue seems to be the most versatile of the three.

My favorite is the Storm PBT Eraser.  I recently picked up a used one with 5 games on it, drilled it up for myself, and boom.  I was partying like it was 2000, first two games, 256-269.  Same hit, same great carry.
Though I have to say my New Storm Hy-Road is climbing the ladder, I bowled 2-300's and an 800 with it in a month an a half.

Well I have to break it up into categories....can't lump it all into just 1 ball....

Plastic...Lane 1 Black XXXL
Urethane...Black Hammer
Pearl Resin...Storm X Factor (but my Playmaker is rapidly gaining ground)
Solid Resin...AZO Armageddon (first honor score) with the BuzzBomb a close 2nd
Particle...Super Carbide Bomb (El Nino X-it gets honorable mention)

I like the el nino x-it. I liked the higher particle load of the x-it as compared to most particle equipment today. It gave me that heavy roll that I craved And gotta agree  with ssnix, roto grip fuel has one of the best looks Ive seen.

Awesome Flip-shot my first 300 with it BUT as I bring my speed up its use for me isnt as much(not as good as it was with lower speed where it really lined up for me)

Gold Rhino Pro(learned to throw a hook with this ball and shot my first 200+ games with it)

Gravity shift(first ball I purchased after learning to throw a hook and still my benchmark ball with 500+ games)

Awesome finish(perfect control ball easy to read)

and for the plastic its got to be my black xxxl

Avalanche pearl is that ball that creates great angle on drier lanes especially since picking the speed up and playing down and in.

I guss you cant say there is one favorite they all are (Of course the h20 I just got may be my new favorite we will see.

Doug Sterner had the right idea in breaking it down by category. So, here goes.............I'm not FIGJAMming---just comments on the balls
Plastic
1. Columbia White Dot
2. Lane#1 XXXL
Urethane
1.  AMF Gold Angle---first 700 and first honor score--300
2. Faball Blue Hammer---second 300
Resin
1. Brunswick Danger Zone--simply consistent hitting power
2.Brunswick Teal Rhino Pro--won many brackets and side pots
Particle
1. Brunswick HPD---another 300
2.Storm El Nino X-It
Solid
1.Roto-Grip Cell---first and only solid I've owned
 Honorable Mention---Columbia Yellow Dot and Brunswick Johnny Petraglia LT-48---Classics that stood the test of time. IMO,if re-issued and upgraded,both could be very versatile balls even with today's oil patterns.

Actually I just punched up a Power Swing last night and shot 300 767 straight oob. Thats the best set i ever shot oob and that thing revs up in the midlane and hits like a truck. Might have to rethink my previous choice
