Can't make up my mind
« on: November 14, 2006, 10:56:31 PM »
Im getting a ball on Thanksgiving weekend and I can't figure out which to go with. I "WANT" a No Mercy but I "THINK" a Domination will fit my game better, what do you think...I am a Stroker/Tweener(at times), with low to med revs and medium ball speeds, looking for a Med Heavy-Heavy oil ball(more on the heavy side). My heart is telling me NO MERCY but my mind is saying DOMINATION. I already own a Black Widow (which I Love), I have trouble with freshly oiled lanes but once they start breaking down Im good. And with medium conditions I Love my Fired Up. Like I said im soo torn. I would get both but that is not an option right now(especially when my fiance is bugging me for new ball). Im a big believer in Hammer's pin action...Please help, Thanks, Joe

P.S. I appreciate all you Storm guys advice, I am also gonna post to the Hammerheads as well. (trying to avoid any bias opinions)

If you can't fix your game, then I suggest beating it with a HAMMER!!!

A man who confronts you is the enemey...an enemy deserves NO MERCY.  Hammer is top of the heap right now, IMO....get a NM.    And I agree on the Hammer pin action!

Mr. Lebowski, this is Bell Salnicker with the Southern Cal Bowling League, and I just got a, an informal report, that a member of your team, uh, Walter Sobchak, drew a firearm during league play. If this is true of course, it contravenes a number of the league's by-laws, and article 27 of the league...

As long as you know what you are getting into, you can't make a bad decision.  I am pretty sure you can do well with any ball as long as you know you are getting the one that matches what you need.

Hammer makes good balls and so does Storm so I don't see how you can go wrong with either.

Dude if a man ever confronts me in the enemy, I think I would need to lay off the acid.

Unless you mean "in" as in "nudge-nudge/wink-wink" in which case I would give them their privacy!

That was my question:

Are the Domination and No Mercy similar balls?  I saw a No Mercy at my pro shop and it looked like a high performance solid.  Maybe the Special Agent would be a better comparison?

I don't know for sure that's why I am asking.

no way the NM hooks more and can take more oil


So to the original poster:
If your heart is telling you NO MERCY, but your mind is saying DOMINATION, why is that?

I don't think these are similar balls so maybe it would be best to listen to your mind.  I think if you wanted a high performance solid in a Storm you would want a Special Agent or Passion.

Yeah I think this is an apples to oranges type situation.

Check out the Special Agent, it covers covers the heavier stuff, and provides a earlier reaction then the others, and with your stroker style, earlier rolling stuff should provide a better overall reaction then the "skid snap" stuff like the Domination and No Mercy.

Thats just my opinion, I could be wrong

Thank you CZ, this is more of the type of opinion Im looking for.
