This ball has been my primary ball ever since i got it a couple weeks ago. I bowl on very oily lanes, and this ball reacts great. It rolls nice with a strong finish.

This ball works very well on long patterns. I have a pin up one, and it really works well on most medium to long conditions. It goes long and hits hard.

Every member of my team just got this ball and I think for the most part we all like it. This ball is better for the longer lane conditions, it will give you the reaction your looking for.

Got this ball as i was impressed by the ball that came before it, the "Invasion." Picked it up and drilled it so it could get through the heads and have a nice arc in the back end.

The ball has nice roll to it. Carried well on the Route 66 patterns ive bowled on. But the ball checked up a little to early for me for some reason. The ball didnt like the Earl Anthony pattern we had here. Had alot of trouble carrying the pins, even for a 2 hander like me. I even noticed the other bowlers that had the Prodigy at the time put the ball back in the bag during this pattern and went for something a little more smooth in the backend. The Prodigy tended to flip a little more in the midlane then my Invasions and the angle of the Arc created a in the back was a little sharper.

All in all, i still think this is a great ball. Good for shots that are a little on the longer side. Hits on the harder side. And has a smooth roll through the heads. A good ball to have in a "Storm" lovers arsenal.

Rating: 9/10 (For me)

Second review.  As with many ultra strong balls out of the box, I found the prodigy to tame considerably after less than 25 games.  It will still be a good control ball, but not something I can get inside the oil line with as was the case out of the box.  The more I throw it the more it reminds me of particle balls from the late 90's.  It will be best where I have good head oil, but plenty of back end.

as much as i love storm roto grip balls i have to say i dont like the prodigy. i think it is very swimmy. it like swwimms on the lane and hard to read. otherwise everything else is good. it just doesnt fit me good.
