Hot Rod Pro Stock Pearl = Which new ball?
« on: July 26, 2006, 10:40:17 AM »
Hello fellow Storm bowlers.  I just wanted to ask you guys which new ball coming out, Thunderstrucks, Jolts, Spitfire, would be similar to the reaction the Hot Rod Pro Stock Pearl had.  I have one and love it, but was thinking of getting another one, if I can find one online since they discontinued them, and wondered which of the new fall balls would be similar.  I would think maybe the Thunderstruck Pearl or the Jolt Pearl.  Any opinion is appreciated.  Thanx.

Jolt Pearl is the closest in specs.  Since it is not out yet it is hard to speculate beyond the published specs.

Thunderstuck Pearl is a much stronger ball than the Hot Rod Pro Stock Pearl IMO.  It is smoother but overall hook should be at least 4 boards stronger.

The other ball you may want to consider is the Hot Rod SS Pearl.  I don't have one but the consensus seems to be that was the replacement for the HRPSP.  Since they have not officially end of marketed that ball you should be able to get one relatively easily.

Well the hot rod line is discontinued, you may still find some but they are not in production anymore. By the way its seems the Jolt Pearl would be the closest.

One more vote for the Jolt Pearl in terms of specs.  The Tropical Storm has a similar core as well, but jumps off the dry a little harder because of the Reactor coverstock.
