I drilled my 3rd one, hoping that layout/surface changes and changes in my release would deem this ball a winner. I hear everyone rage about it, so I though I must be doing something wrong......... WRONG. It just plain isn't for me. Maybe it can work in my challenge league when I need push and recovery with a bigger stupid angle, but how often do you see that? I'd rather get right and stuff it anyway.
I guess my eye prefers earlier, smoother stuff. The best Storm stuff I have is a Marvel-S, Marvel Pearl, SonIQ (this ball is stupid good), Punch Out (when I need push - another stupid good ball), all the iQ's with the low diff core. My pro shop guys tell me it's my release, and my old school eye. I like to get control of the midlane and the HyRoad just doesn't do it for me. It tumbles too long and generates too much angle - ending up in over/under hell for me. It also seems to be very unforgiving when I miss it at the bottom.
For guys that need help getting the ball down the lane, I can see how this ball could be useful ...... any other thoughts?
