What do you think the best all around ball is out right now.

Normal house shot, first ball out of the bag.

Why is this in the Storm forum, if nobody is posting Storm balls?

I would say the best ball I've thrown recently is the Lane #1 Pearl Panther; smoothest pearl I've ever come across.

I was thinking my White Dot is my biggest scoring piece. Gotta love that spare ball.

my most favorite piece currently is the brunswick versa-max. it handles anything in between the extremes of oil patterns. it is so versatile & easy power to control. i have 3 drilled up right now because i liked my first one so much. the other 2 i drilled are just as good for the conditions i drilled them up for. drill one up with your favorite layout & i doubt you'll be disappointed.

I'll admit I did not notice the Forum I was in .. I guess the OP was asking about Storm .. My error!!!

I got my versa Max last Wednesday. Pin up 50x5x30 great ball shot 620 first night then subbed Sunday 695 then last night exactly a week after i got shot 686. Well I've been working on my game all year and been bowling great this past month and a half. So I guess no matter which ball I use I can score now. But versa max is a great ball for house shots.

First ball out of my bag is my Nexxus. I get to open up the lane on the fresh right away. The ball recovers from everywhere. I can play up the boards with it, and i can get deep.

Obviously you were not listening to your ball...

Grape Vibe is my goto ball right now. If I want to open the lane up a bit more I grab my Jet Black Taboo....

Just alittle side comment! I appreciate the ideas suggested by Impending Doom!

Very little need for pearls for me on my side. I have a Tropical Storm and it is BIG for me!

I have a Freeze undrilled and a Mutant cell pearl. Not even sure If I am going to punch them...

Hmmmm, maybe sell my NIB Freeze and get a Clutch pearl? Maybe!

Tropical Storm! Best $39 NIB resin ball I ever bought. I do like the way the Modern Marvel moves. That's my vote.

I hope that's the case....as I'm picking up my new 716C in a few hours. Sticking with Track, I would say the 607A is the ball I would use week in, week out....

Personally, when looking for an every week ball I typically go for a benchmark style of bowling ball. If at all possible I prefer a hybrid coverstock as it allows you the most options in terms of surface adjustments should you need to really fine toon a reaction.

Of the balls our right now, pick any of these and you should be fine:

The Nuts - 900 Global

Hellraiser - DV8

Arson - Hammer

QZ2 Quadfire - Motiv

Infinite Theory - Rotogrip

Rising Star - Rotogrip

Frantic - Storm (my second choice)

716C - Track (my personal favorite)

I love the 607A, but the turn it makes is to abrupt to consider it an every game ball. I promise you will really enjoy your 716C which is a great ball for a variety of conditions.

Right now if the Hy-Road is still available, that would be the best. I love my Reign & if the Cross Road gets the rave reviews that the Hy-Road got, I will look into one for sure.

Buddies has hyroads listed. I picked one up from my local ps two months recently and I had to take the polish off and after that it really shined(no pun intended).

Onyx Vibe. I use it probably 80% of the time. It's probably my favorite ball of all time. Just amazing.
