WOW!!! I REALLY LIKE THIS BALL IT GETS THROUGH THE HEADS WITH EASE AND TURNS THE CORNER LIKE IT HITS A BRICKWALL AND SMACKS THE PINS AROUND THIS IS ANOTHER GREAT BALL FROM TRACK

An ideal addition to the original Stomp and just as good in the bang for bucks stakes.  Matt Riley won the Australian Open with one and the ones drilled up in my shops have all performed inpressively.  Still too cheap for the level of performance and is a best seller, just can't get enough of them.  Many of our league players have gone to these from more expensive reactives and have seen their carry improve markedly.  An ideal combination of coverstock/core.

For what its worth,

I am a long time Track fan (Nuke, Critical Mass, TKO, En4cer)

and I recently bought a Pearl Stomp. I wanted it for second shift Classic League, but I couldnt get it to work and was ready to throw it in the dumpster. I have it drilled like Track recommended for lots of skid and snap (pin above right of middle finger). It does skiiiiiiiiid and SNAP! It way out hooks my Enforcer which is drilled kind of mild (pin above ring finger). I, however, was finding the ball way over/under as I have heard other people complain about. My solution was to scuff off the polish with scotch brite. Night and day difference!!!! The ball reads the mid lane and arcs more now, but still has plenty of drive in the back to RAPE the rack. The scuffing made the ball much more predictable. Afterwards I shot 692, not bad for a 18* average bowler. The ball had plenty of carry, and any bad shots were my fault. For a ball I was ready to throw in the trash, I now love my Stomp.

Hello first off i am a left handed cranker with average speed and above average revs. I drilled this ball up some time ago with a 5X5 patter and a 5/8 inch wieght hole on my VAL 1 1/2 inches below my axis point ending top and side wieght where about 1 once top

and 0 side.



   This ball is great for medium oil lanes with good back ends or for heavy oiled lanes playing a deep inside line.

The Pearl Stomp goes long and makes a nice strong arc to the pocket and hits very hard while keeping the pins low to the deck to increase pin action and carry. While this is a pearlized ball it doesn't have the tendancy to squit on oil as much as alot of other pearlized balls due to the loading of mica particles



Over all this ball would rate an 8 out of 10 due to its hitting power and consistency

Me: Lefty, 18mph ball speed, forward roll and low to medium revs

Pearl Stomp drilled 3 3/8 x 3 3/8 Rev Leverage, 1/2 thumb weight and 5/8oz + side weight, 3" pin 10 c'clock 1 3/4" beneath fingers, CG below grip mid line, 1 1/2" out from grip centre line, balance hole.

For my ball speed on a light oiled condition with carrydown on guardian this ball does it all.

It is clean thru the heads, revving almost straight off the hand.  The cover gets it down the lane and the dynamics of the set up combine with the cover to give it the recovery.   It reads the oil line with ease and holds on the tug shot and breaks back hard when outside the target.  The carry is exceptional, although it sometimes is a better proposition on the 1/2 pocket hit because the power it displays on the flush hit sometimes leaves cold 8's and 9's.

This ball now has some 80 odd games on it and the performance is as good as it was out of the box.  I resurface it fortnightly with 800, 1200 grit wet and dry and polish it with 320 grit to bring it back to box finish.

This is a very good ball for the price. There is lots of hitting power and keep the pins nice and low. I had this ball drilled for a dry shot. No problem clearing the heads and a sharp turn on the break. My only complaint is when the oil is choppy it has a tendency to jump a little. For the money I rank it right up there with the Messengers and that is a compliment.

I have had this ball for about a year and a half.  I use it on a fresh medium/light shot.  At first it is hard to control with the fresh backends, but after a little carrydown this ball is nice.  Has a smooth late arc/snap reaction that frequently leaves a nine pin.  Carries light hits pretty well but it hits a little high there will probably be a 4-9 because of the angle. It still hits just like the day I got it.  It does need some head oil though or it will roll out.  This has been one of my favorite balls for a typical league shot
