1 more question for the Visionary Pearls...
« on: February 28, 2007, 12:44:02 PM »
Which one of these is the least angular, or most rolly....

1. G3 Gryphon
2. Bronze AMB Centaur
3. Immortal Pearl

For anyone who has rolled them...I have never seen any in action, let alone have 1....

I was interested in joining the visionary test program and was thinking of having
Frankie May 5x3
G3 4x3 1/2
Violet gargoyle 4 1/2 x3
Green Gargoyle 3x3 3/8
Green blue centaur 2x2

How does the G3 and the Green Gargoyle compare to the storm Agent and Raw Doom

Osk....thats a good question...I have not tossed Storm since 2001 and the Trauma days.....and due to some issues, I refused to even sell their products in my shop as well...so I have not drilled any up to even see what kind of reaction they can give...

Greenie is one the all time biggest skid flip balls of all time depending on how you layout.  G-3 not too far behind.  Of all the Hammers right now I'd say the Toxic is closest to the G-3/Greenie.  If the new Pearl Ogre is rolly like the first Solid Ogre ball motion and you are looking for more rolly than skid flip I'd wait for the new Pearl.  If not go for the G-3 for more overall oil than the Greenie.  Greenie for lighter deeper angles.  In the end it will depend on your layouts and conditions bowled on.

Thanks Clint.  Rolled a nice set yesterday in a local tourney 266 last game w/ the Solid Ogre @1500 est. Storm Step #2.  I think, I've found the surface that works best for me on most lane conditions.  Ogre carries very well.  Love the roll.

My pap is 4 1/2 over 7/8s up and i can have anywhere from 400rpm and 16 mph at pins to 200 rpm and 13mph at pins so i like brunswick alot and hammer but i am really interested in visionary because not alot of people use them and once i start using them people are going to say what is that and wow.

Sorry that would not be my reason to use Visionary.  That's just me.

Scott, wondering what you saw in that coverstock finish and the conditions you are bowling on. What was the coverstock finish before applying the Storm's Step #2?

 


Trim,

I took it to 1500 compound grit to battle a over/under on a dry walled house in a local tourney over the weekend.  I put that over the 600 OOB.  

On basic THS where you have a little more oil across the lane I think an abralon finish will work best.  No polish.  Reads the mids better that way I think.  I'm trying my Solid at 2000 abralon tonite on Bruns. Anvilane 39'  See what I think.

the Immortal Pearl is pretty angular, I threw it from inside and when it hit the breakpoint it went dead left.
