My guess is that you might get a better answer in the Storm section. That said, I have thrown the Core Power LRG but not any of the other Storm offerings, so I cannot give a comparison between the two balls of which you speak...

I did like the predictability of the LRG...no sudden snap, just a nice arc'ing motion. But I also was not throwing it on a THS either...which also could invalidate my observations for your purposes.

I have a Core Power LRG; it's a great ball, but it needs oil in the heads and oil in the midlane, or it will burn up way too soon, especially if your ball speed is lower than average.

From reading this post and the one in the Storm section, you don't seem to have a good grasp on what makes a ball good for a particular condition. The Triple-X Factor is not a "better ball" than the LRG, but it does match up to certain conditions better, given your bowling style, the revs you have, your ball speed, your axis rotation and tilt, and the length and width of the oil pattern you play on.

You would be well-advised to let your pro shop guy watch you bowl, and help you choose the best ball for you and the lane patterns on which you typically bowl. There are no magical bowling balls.

Core Power LRG by Storm !
Best ball I have ever thrown. Drilled 4 X 3
with a 1 1/2 inch pin. Shot 290 at Reno three years
ago (Wiggling 7 in 1st frame). This is the most
versatile ball I have ever owned. If you have any trace
of oil in the heads. You can use this ball. I keep mine
polished. I really take care of it, I will truly
miss it when It's on its last refinish. I was able to
play deep inside and still carry at the nationals 3
years ago. I am packing up for Reno as we speak, and
will take it, with a Super Charge, Big Blue Pearl, and
my spare ball. As far as the XXX Factor, from what I
have seen, this is an awesome ball. Youc couldnt go wrong
with either.
