Bday present
« on: January 18, 2010, 11:44:59 PM »


Went to the pro shop initially to to try out the IT system, but the UPS guy dropped off some packages while i was there. One of the boxes held the Reign of Fire and this Invasion.  I jokingly asked for him to go ahead and drill it up for me and he did!
Haven't thrown it yet though.  The lanes hadn't been  oiled yet and not even a plastic ball would stay on the lanes.

Yesterday happened to be my bday

Available to the public Jan 28th. Some pro shops that are Storm VIP shops should have received 1 of each last week.

idk if its the lay-out or what but this ball didn't move like i expected it to.  Maybe because the oil was literally just layed out. After 2 games the ball was money though.

Hopefully it moves well tomorrow in league.

How did it move?  Are you a stroker, tweener, or cranker?

don't know what volume of oil is put down at your center but that ball is extremely aggressive! But it would help to know your bowling stats (mph,style, rev rate etc)

Which is yet another reason why release dates are a joke.  Just release them as they are poured and go through quality control...
