Kudos for keeping all your shots and keeping it real!
The 9pin gave u the red ass😂🎉
Damn girl, you can strike!
Good one. I don't know if you guys do any league episodes, but a 3 dark ball bag may look nice. PhysiX Blackout, VEBO, Lightning Blackout.
Nice video. You make everything look good. How would you compare this with the Track Criterion.
Enjoy your commentaries on your videos. The demonstrations of difference between different bowling balls is outstanding. You are doing a great job, keep going forward.
Is the S2 a replacement for the X Cell? Or is the more? Thanks.
Enjoying your natural speaking delivery, thoughtful comparisons, sequence of fine adjustments, immediate feedback, and those beefy strikes! Efficient and effective ball review
Would love to see the PBO with some Power Edge on it. Would that put it in HRP or Exotic Gem territory?
Nice comparison thanks for showing the difference in the balls
Ben just got that Dawg in him for the best videos on RUclips
YOOOOOO
Right?
Put it up against the Proton
I retired my Proton after the Max came out and bested it, to my eye. But if I ever dig it back out, I'll consider going an all-Physix line comparison, with the OG original, Astro, Infinite and Blackout
The Physix Blackout looks like a ball I'd love to have! Might get this one late spring! I tried the xcell and did not match up with it, tried all kinda of surface adjustments, I even tried it in a 2 different houses. I just couldn't get it to work for me. Sold it to a buddy who is on one of my league teams and he destroys with it!
Hope you get a Blackout! It's definitely going to be a notable ball these next few months. It rolls just about perfect
The shot at 5:05 really shows the capabilities of this ball. 2 board move in from the X Cell spot and the ball literally looked like it hooke twice. A trained eye will be able to tell. This ball I'd going to be GOOOD. That said, Ben, your videos are the best going eight now IMO. Cheers!
Thanks--much appreciated! And yeah, this ball is so good... I can't wait to smash it with it next week
What is your process for applying the power edge? Great vid.
Thanks! And, great questions. The official process per Storm is 500 for 30 seconds all 4 sides, 1000 10 seconds all 4 sides, then a quarter-sized amount of Power Edge for 15 seconds on 2 sides. Then wipe all any excess with cleaner
I wasn’t going to get Effect Tour because I have the Envy Tour. I went ahead and got it, and went 290 first game out of the box and 763 for the night. Going to adjust surface a little higher on my Envy Tour so they don’t fill same spot in my bag.
That’s awesome !!
Like to c u throw it with a bit slower ball speed standing 35 and 18 at the arrows 9 at the break point
Yessirrr
Can u do a comparsion between the Storm Ion Max vs DNA?
I'll definitely keep it in mind for the future. I love both of those balls. DNA was highly underrated, IMO
What ball would be best in my 3rd slot after a Proton Physix and AS S2: Origin, DNA Coil, or HR Pearl?
Origin at box finish is probably the next step down from the S2... but if you wanted a little more separation and versatility in your bag, maybe consider the Road Warrior as that 3rd ball?
@@wsbproshopI have a Road Warrior, but am looking for something for game 3 of league, when there is still some oil on the lanes. I’ve tried the OG Attention Star and Infinite Physix in that slot but have over under issues, so something that can dig in a little more would be better.
Great video
Much appreciated!
Thanks for the detailed comparison
Happy to help!
What weight ball do you throw?
Must have shot like 869 in the video 🤤
Hahaha
you are showing two types of flashlights. which one is it. I had 3 with the them and they were junk.
Say what?
I normally never comment, but excellent ball review. Curious to know your pin to pap length.
Much appreciated! The pin to PAP for this ball was 4.75"
Much better than Luis Napoles
Thanks for the support!
Thinking about redoing my bag I'm going to keep the white ghost Pearl the older version love that ball. But thinking about getting the hammer effect and now also the hammer effect tour for a combo three bag what do you think.
Sounds good. The effect will be stronger than the ghost for sure. The effect tour is a nice play off those
Gee I really like this channel. Keep up the good work. From Brisbane Australia
Awesome. Thanks for subscribing and enjoy
Thanks for the support! Cheers to you in Brisbane from us in Seattle!
The road is a great benchmark ball, most controllable ball in my arsenal. Only thing wrong with this ball is if you throw it too early, if you still use Reacta gloss. Now that power edge has come out The Road is more consistent. The Road can be used all night from fresh to the burn. Fresh I would recommend power edge finish. On the burn, Reacta gloss should still shine giving length and forgiveness
Thanks for the insight. Seeing as how I'm loving the Road Warrior right now, maybe I'll take another spin with the original
@ great 1 2 punch
I just got the anger and man it’s amazing
That video comes out soon. But I agree. It is amazing
Hmmmm. Might have to get that drilled for Espresso =)
It would probably crush it at Espresso. But then again, maybe I don't want you to know that... ;)
@wsbproshop 😂😂 Well played sir, well played.
My daughter is down to 3 balls the ion pro, x-cell( she loves roto grip), and the sublime focus for a new ball what are your thoughts she currently has a exotic gem?
Great question. What's her bowling style? X-Cell is on e of th best balls I threw all year. Check out my Favorites of 2024 segment coming later this month for some extra info about on that
2.0 hybrid with 2000 grit surface is everything
U think the Hammer Tour can compete w/ a Hammer purple urathane?
Those are very different balls. Not really comparable to each other but both good to have in a bag for a wide variety of conditions.
@hammersomd I decided on the Purple Hammer...the tour jus didn't impress me so much...that and I wanted a urathane ball in the bag for league night
@ good ball as well
As a two hander there is no way i can use the Effect Tour on house with the out of box surface 😂😅
Does it hook too much? Did you see packy hanrahans video
Would’ve paid to see the hurdle
Haha
Ok you got my attention my brotha
Jerin Dizon reacted with a “👍🏽”
I'm a one handed backup bowler who throws a 16lb Hammer Effect finished at 1500 with no polish. And i must say, I absolutely LOVE that ball. It works and rolls amazing for me! I am so excited to get this new tour version 🤗
Let us know how you do with It when you get it.
@hammersomd will do 😊👍🏾
New to your channel, really well done and informative reviews! SUBBED!!
Welcome aboard! Thanks for the support!
Great video. You strike with everything. Love the looks and reaction of the Harsh reality Pearl. Would you say it is stronger than the Optimum Idol Pearl.
Thanks--much appreciated! And yes, the Harsh Pearl is way stronger than the Optimum Idol Pearl--both downline, and in the midline. Harsh Pearl is a beast
You do Seattle proud! Always a pleasure and a great experience . The feedback is outstanding. Ty
Thank you so much.
How does the stealth hybrid compare to the vebo?
The stealth hybrid seemed to be much earlier rolling than my vebo. I would say the vebo starts to react further down lane with sharper angles, the stealth hybrid seemed continuous off the spot.
@2Hander thanks I agree with that too.
Awesome 🎳🎳 greetings from Belgium. 🖐🏻
Greetings!!!! That is so cool
Chees to you in Belgium! Glad you're with us!
What is the white circular mark above your fingers on the Effect?
That’s where the colors on the ball settled.
Can’t wait to get my Tour Effect drilled up today 👏🏾🔥
How do you like it?
Hydration! The emergence of Syrup Jim
Breaking the 4th wall
Left that mysterious enigma hanging. Keep showing him who the Alpha is in this soap opera
Its a knew ball of course it's gonna roll good..
Once in a while, a new ball comes around that rolls yucky though. ;)
Im yelling at my tv "put the mic on your hat dammit!"
lol, I know, right? I don't know what I was thinking
