Theory vs Virtual Gravity/Invasion???
« on: November 18, 2010, 10:30:39 AM »

Has anyone had an opportunity to compare the new Theory to Storm's big solid, the Virtual Gravity?  The VG is pretty angular, while the Invasion is smoother and earlier. I'm wondering if this will be more like one of those or a totally different reaction.... thx!

I'm curious about this also. I currently have a VG and a MCP, both drilled for more length. I'm looking for something that'll read midlane better than the above. Also if the Theory will be stronger overall than what i've got depending on the layout.

The Theory is definitley stronger than the VG.....in overall hook and backend.  Definitely more motion off the backend and more continious in the pocket.  It has a completely unique reaction, I LOVE MINE!

I'll let you know after Thanksgiving lol......

I already plan on drilling mine just like my Virtual Gravity, but Pin-up...  that way it gets down the lane a bit farther, yet still reads the lanes good and makes a nice smooth turn off the break....

I've seen the video posted and it had a pin up drilling and that ball just hooked lol....

now my VG is awesome on the Shark Pattern  and is left in OOB condition.  

My Invasion, from the beginning i had it sanded @ 2k then 4k to really smooth out the surface and then done to a 4k polish..... And this ball is awesome on a shorter pattern or house shot.  It also has a pin-up drilling too...

But I will totally post up a video when i get the Theory drilled up.....

Well I see that bowlingball.com now shows a perfect scale rating for the Theory. I'm not sure how accurate or "good" their scale is but they have the theory at 220, VG at 219.5 and the invasion at 217.9. So will the theory and VG be really similar since they're only .5 off of eachother? Or is their "perfect scale" misleading?
