We Built The Best 6 Bowling Ball Arsenal! 

Could use one at 3k in place of the soul.

@@BentheBowler I'd use OOB Zen instead of the Phase V. I know why Brad suggests the newer SPI balls pushing new stuff. But to me the OG Zen is better than most of the new stuff.

I agree. It's so versatile. It's the benchmark ball in my bag.

I carry 3 balls for my league. One each--reactive/urethane/plastic.

My 4 ball league arsenal: Phaze 2, Phaze 3, Hyroad Pearl, Plastic

Would like to see this too, though no house around here is the same. One is 44 foot, on new lanes with a lake in the middle. Another house its medium on old lanes. And then the other house nearby I'm told only gets oiled once a week and it hooks so much, that I've considered throwing my plastic ball.

@@machinethesun9243 my issue so far the past month is my hand getting cold and my thumb shrinking. Ruins my entire release.

@@TraumaER that has always been an issue for me. I watched a video from JR Raymond recently that talked about adding more thumb tape to a ball in strategic locations that I tried out and have since been pretty happy with the results. I'll break down where I'm at currently. I recently started using thumb tape over my thumb knuckle in addition to one piece of white tape in my thumb hole (inserted opposite of my knuckle) and, as the temperature has been just under freezing lately, three pieces of black tape inserted in my thumb hole (same side as knuckle). The black tape was after I watched JR's video. So far, I have great pressure on my thumb yet it releases without getting stuck. The tape on my thumb is something I wish I knew about years ago. The friction on my thumb without tape would make my thumb gradually swell up and often I'd get a blister near my knuckle. With tape, that's not an issue, and my thumb stays the same size all night at league (so I'm not adding or removing thumb hole tape frequently like I used to). The white and black tape in my thumb hole are providing me a nice balance of grip during my swing and smoothness when I release. Anyway, I'd look into this if you're interested. As for me, we'll see how temperatures affect things once summer returns, but I'm guessing I won't have to adjust much when the time comes.

I wish I could carry six balls!

The first event is January 29th and is stupidly the U.S open

@@tomatowado3222 agreed. Don't start with a major!!

I couldn't match up with the skyrocket but have a rocketship which I just love. I'm actually looking to replace my very old track strike machine, assymetrical ball that doesn't overreact. I've not long ago added the zen to my arsenal but haven't had the right condition for it.

@@timmartin1354 i have the sky rocket now for almost 6 years i think but it was not great al those years lol Zen is the best ball that i have i am very happy whit it

Phaze2 and don’t even think about it!

Normally, I would suggest the phaze2 as well and I recently threw my first 300 with it. But since you have a zen soul already, there’s a bit of overlap there. I would suggest an IQ tour solid as a ball down from the Zen. But it really depends on your game and speed/revs bc the IQ is a great benchmark for high rev bowlers.

@@gregorybrillant7775 tnx you for the comments i am a rev dominant player. I was thinking about the phase2 also but i was not sure I want to buy a benchmark bowlingbal a ball down from my zen I will look at the iq tour Sollid. Do you have any more suggestions as a benchmark? Ball down from my zen? A long story hahah i hope u understand English is not very good 😬

Replace the Zen Soul with the Phaze 2 they are very similar.

I still throw my No Rules solid along with a Axiom pearl & C300 Baller

I have night road but the hooks is uncontrollable on dry lanes. Which ball would you recommend to play on such condition? Will urethane work ?

@@rifqizainalabidin1040 My night road is drilled with a low flare layout, which makes it more controllable for me. urethane usually needs some oil so probably not the best for dry lanes. I would say something like the hyroad pearl, hustle, or maybe even a tropical surge.

@@carlostrujillo2718 Thanks for the recommendation, my proshop never ask me what conditions that I usually play and I have 0 knowledge about bowling ball that time. Most of bowling alley at my country (Malaysia) are not properly oil. They only oil the lane for league. I heard many good review for Hustle, might grab that for my 2nd ball.

Gem probably similar to Super Nova, and Idol cosmos near Phase V

Phaze 2 or Phaze 5 would be an upgrade. Phaze 2 still being made after like 6 years. Sought after ball and considered GOAT of bowling balls. Very versatile.

Pin up imo (mine is 50x4x30) its a very smooth arc type motion.

I totally agree. It would be nice for brad to do a ball arsenal for league night house bowling. Because where I bowl the only ball that would stay on the pocket side of the head pin is the IQ. I bowl an tour emerald and it works fairly well. But by game three I’m down to an old Brunswick vintage series LT-48. It is the reissue version and it knows what burnt lanes mean.

Tough to answer because Storm is really Storm, Roto Grip and 900G, where Brunswick is Ebonite, Brunswick, Hammer, C300, Dv8, Track. So they still have lots of options within their “Brand”. Also, some of these balls are comparable across brand families and sticking with Storm for instance, let’s them build an arsenal that complements one ball to another.

What 3 do you have and can you expand on what you mean by not sure how to put them together?

@@davidchamberlain5146 I have the columbia 300 the beast,kinetic ice,spare bowl but how would expand on those 3 balls

@@michaelbisbee41 I looked at an on line magazine "Bowling this Month" I subscribe to. Both of you balls, outside the plastic spare ball have are pearl coverstock. This coverstock is designed to have the ball go farther down the line then break (hook) toward the pocket. If you're looking to expand your arsenal I would recommend you get a ball with a solid coverstock designed for a higher volume of oil. This coverstock is designed so the ball doesn't go as far down the lane before it breaks toward the pocket. There are a whole lot of options for this type of ball. Phase 2, Venom Shock, Gym, Reality, Hammer Web or Black Widow just to mention a few. Factors to consider are the amount of oil on the lanes you bowl on and to some extent the style of bowler you are. Talk to the Pro Shop Owner (PSO) to see what he/she recommends. Hopefully they can watch you bowl to give them a better idea of what to recommend. If you aren't in the market for a new ball you can ask the PSO about changing the surface (grit) or the cover on 1 you own to give you a different ball motion.

@@davidchamberlain5146 I bowl on a house shoot league every Thursday and so changing the bowl surface would be the 1st step and go from there or just get a different bowling ball with a solid coverstock

@@michaelbisbee41 best of luck in whichever direction you choose

Yes, all balls same weight

Yes

@@BradandKyleBowl , i agree, seems once sided, towards storm, that no other bowling ball manufacturers can compete. Understand as Storm is your sponsor.😊
