Not saying that whoever told you that is wrong, but they obviously dont know about all the other companies out there. First of all, what type of ball are you throwing now that is rolling too early? That is the first thing we need to know, so we have something to compare to.

Well that would be why. Both balls, in my opinion, are very early rolling to begin with. There are TONS of balls I could recomend, but I will just name a few of the popular skid/snap balls out right now. The Intense Inferno, by Brunswick is a good medium oil skid/snap, the Green Gargoyle by visionary is skid/snap for medium, chrome yellow power groove is good for medium/light, to medium oil for high rev players. Those are just a few. Im sure more people will chime in here. I truthfully am not very familiar with storm now that I think about it so I cant really make any suggestions.

The V2 Sweet hooks too early for you?  I'm heavy handed as well and love my original V2 polished up.  Maybe you are getting too far up the back of the ball or are hitting up on your shots too much.

I'm really anxious to get my hands on their new Hot Rod Hybrid...which is one of the balls Robert Smith was throwing this past weekend.  Their Flash Force is a great league condition ball in our area, but it may have a little too much midlane read for you.  The power charge pearl is a great down the lane kind of ball...so is the original Hot Rod.  You really can go wrong with anyone of Storm's balls from their Flash or Hot Rod line.  They are work great in medium oil conditions, they just differ with how early they read the pattern, etc.

Actually Robert was throwing a Depth Charge on the left lane in his first match and on both lanes in the title match.  The Depth Charge is no where near a weak ball by any stretch.  

I'm not totally sure about the HB, but the Depth charge appeared to have the pin below his fingers near his midline and the cg was twisted to the right slightly.  However, the DC is a weak assymetric ball so it would be interesting to see where they placed the spun MB.

Since you rev rate is so high I would recommend low flaring such as the Hot Rod prostock or if you want something in the higher lines i would suggest drilling them with 5+ inch layouts with a smooth finish 1200 grit and up finally if you run into a heavy oil condition I would go with 5 1/2 layouts in higher flaring cores with surface 500-800 or a low flaring with 4 1/2" layouts.

i rev about 550-575 rpm, and we drilled the eraser banshee, atomic charge and the x-factor ace. they all except for the atomic charge go long and snap, especially the banshee, which will hook quite late...i will be getting the hybrid soon, and it should be somewhat along the same lines as the banshee in reaction except with more hook...

it also helps to know what type of oil you are bowling on.
