Whats the opinion on the SHIFT???
« on: September 04, 2007, 03:55:48 AM »
Greetings STORMERS

 I recently switched friom Roto-Grip to STORM since I fell in love with my Secret AGent

 So I was thinking about getting the DOMINATION but after looking at the SHIFT I just might get that instead so whats the on-going opinion of this ball????????

TIA

Thanks Jeff and Riggs for your input. Your eyes are trained better to see these things and it helps some of out who are still learning these tools.

My input on the Shift is it is unbelievable for my game on walled up house patterns. I use it the minute I can start and wheel (in my case, it may be a tricycle wheel) to the dry. The ball gets the corner and just splinters the rack. I have to pick my spots on tougher patterns. The minute I see what looks to be some area develop inside of my target, this ball comes out of the bag. I also have a release where I just try to keep my thumb up and let the ball roll off my fingers and this ball will work once in awhile doing that. It can be a little too strong on the back if I am close to the friction line.

So now for my STORM gear I will have this for my arsenal:

1) T-Road Solid
2) Secret Agent
3) T-Road Pearl

Which one are you talking about?

Btw, I used my T-Road Pearl last night at the end of the second game and all I can say about this new ball is WOW!! does it hook

and I even put a little coat of polish on it before I took it over to my driller as it comes already with a nice coat of polish.

Also, I have a very tame drill on it as I went with a 3"-3 1/2" Pin up over the bridge and it stilled hooked like a mofo  damn nice ball and cheap too compared to other top end stuff.
