well yeah - first storm ball i have thrown - i have tried the storm ace which is a good compliment - but this thunder road is older but still a nice smooth transition ball with some hook potential - good gift for someone or i could probably sell it for 80 some..

i believe it was totally worth 15$ lol

I found an NIB Thunder last week. Can't wait to get it drilled up and see what it does for me. I've got another one I'm already using but it's drilled pin down, and those Thunder cores really shined for me when I had them drilled pin up.

Love those balls, all of them.

Yeah the cores in them were great, if you are looking new ballls PYI guys, the Hot Rod Hybrid, and the New Thunderstruck balls utilize the same core with three different coverstock possibilities, Hot Rod Hybrid (solid/pearl mix) the Thunderstruck Solid, and the Thunderstruck Pearl, all with more aggressive covers, yet the same great core.
