@@Rascalibur Nice! I’ll be looking to add another ball soon, I’m just beginning my serious bowling journey, so I’m developing technique presently, but I’m already keeping an eye out on new tools and additions for me. This one will for sure be in consideration.
The Venom Shock looked good once you moved to the left. You had a pretty good look with the Reign On, too; however, it seems to me that you didn't get lined up all that well even though you were hitting the pocket with it. My Reign On always surprised me in that it hooked sharply once in the backend dry boards near the headpin. If you had carry down from urethane balls or plastic near the pocket, the Reign On wouldn't do all that well unless you came from farther right and get it to start making it's move earlier. The Hyped might work well on fresh. Good luck in the tournament Mike...
Love the content bro! I've been bowling two handed for a while now, averaging 225-227 currently.. one thing I changed recently is I changed the finger pitches to 1 inch reverse.. really helps the ball come off my hand super consistently now. Just some advice, keep grinding man and keep up the great content!
I hit my revenant with a 3000 pad just to knock the reacta-gloss off, and it rolled so much better for me. May want to try that if you find it inconsistent. I bowl one handed but no thumb so its laid out with a 2LS layout
Really good video! I liked the hyped solid, venom shock and reign on. The Revenant is definitely a straighter ball itself. I think the Nova and honestly a Fate would probably do well here
Venom shock is a smooth earlier hooking ball that ball to i had one! and they just came out with a step up from that u should to looknin to and get one black venom! black and gold ball
Something I would recommend for the revenant would be a complete resurface. SPI surfaces have been really bad this year and the laboring your ball is doing might be proof of that. Did the ball feel like it never got clean when you threw it?
Yo, this was great. I love your sillier vids but it's cool to see some other stuff from you as well. As a relatively new two-hander myself, I'm looking forward to seeing what balls you end up gravitating towards. For me, the phase 2 (with plenty of lane shine) and the katana assault seem to have matched up quite well. Also, you may want to hit the Revenant with some surface to knock the reacta gloss off. I've heard the factory finish has had some issues. That could be why it was just skidding the whole lane. It's supposed to be a pretty clean cover but idk about that clean. Could also be the lane condition but everything else seemed to roll fine.
Don't worry I have the Revenant as well and it looks the same for me! I've changed the surface on mine seven different times to try and get some kind of consistent ball reaction and I have yet to do so, which really sucks because I really love my Spectre
I have been throwing the venom shock for the last year and my average is about 10-15 pins higher than it’s ever been before. I absolutely love that ball. It’s supposed to be motivs light to medium oil ball, but it definitely plays well above its spot on their ball chart….. very versatile ball.
I have a revenant drilled for a little more action on the back end and I’m 2 handed, I’m surprised how little yours was picking up it definitely could have been lame condition
Seems like it the layouts are causing them to rev up and roll out. Saw a handful of deflection. 5x4x3.5-2ls layout likes to shape a lot even though it's a "benchmark".
I can give u one advice I have the venom shock and its a smooth clean hooking ball! u need to play that ball in the oil cuse it not a strong ball it hooks early u get it way right to the fraction it's not comeing back!.... and the pink wido is a urethane ball u play the 1 board with it for straighter doesn't collect oil pushes it
Idk if it’s just me as a 2 handed bowler but when you throw it pretty hard and fast with that perfect curve and strike is just the most satisfying thing in bowling
I have been saying from day one, for you two handed is the way to go…..you look so much more comfortable and you throw it a whole lot better and your form is a million times better then your one handed form…I am really glad you decided to bowl the regional two handed….it might not all fall into place right away this very first tournament but the more you keep throwing two handed and the more you get to practice two handed when you have off from work the better you are going to get and there are literally no doubts in my mind that you will be a force to be reckon with….your form is so much better two handed it’s really not even close…..please just stick with it and just practice practice practice when you can of course…..don’t give up so easily if you don’t see results in first few weeks, you are just starting and you have to practice a lot…..but in the long run this is the way to go and I promise you you will be competing with your boy Forrest and d tang for real monies very very very soon brother……state safe my man….
I just started bowling again and I made the switch to 2 handed. I gotta say it's a weird transition for me. Although the Hyped Solid is my go to ball. That's my benchmark I guess you can say.
For random purchases that is a pretty good arsenal. I knew the hyped solid was going look the best when I saw it probably an ideal ball for ths I thought that reign on looked good as well
That was the regular venom not the venom shock. Although they have the same core and cover stock it doesn’t say venom shock on the ball. I actually had a venom shock the shock was green on the ball
Now that you have two handed only equipment. I feel as if you don’t miss as many shots as you did before. What I’m trying to say is your ball roll is super consistent now. Cheers man!
As a two hander I prefer more control balls, since I can do a lot with my hand at the bottom but it’s always a good idea to have a mix of stronger and weaker balls.
Did you lay these balls out using the Storm Two Hand system and what layouts did you put on the balls for which reactions? Without proper two handed layouts on the balls, the performance will be sub-par. Two Hands is a whole new world and Storm had to invent a whole new system of drilling to accommodate it. Regardless, your ball roll and motion is superior using two-hands. I was disappointed to not see you roll the Pink Widow Urethane. The "Reign On" looked really good.
My 2h ball roll isn’t 100% consistent yet so I don’t have an exact PAP but we just threw some semi benchmark layouts on them to get me started. The reign on did look pretty good
Ball speed and rev would have been cool to see, your smart and good enough to get this so.. this will be interesting being a noob to 2 hand and ball selection.. good content IMO
do you recommend venom shock for a bowler that has just started almost a year ago? I asked my friend who's just bowled a 279 in league and he said venom shocks are really meant for 1 handers...
We have a 240+ avg high school two hander here who seems to drop an honor score every other week or so and it seems his Venom Shock is always in his hands.
im sad. Ive bowled 2 handed for a 5 years and I have bowled 3 300s but ive never had anything drilled for me.I am only 17 so i cant afford them but still amazing to watch u throw them
A fan of your progress on RUclips and love your fun skits. You’re much better than myself, but I think if you see this, your 2 handed throw before had a bit more up the back axis rotation. And in this video it was much more sideways causing a late reaction and overhooking. Just an observation. Hope all the best ❤
Make sure you get that reactagloss off the Revenant before you take it to a tournament. Completely different ball, trust me! 2k to get the reactagloss off, then take it up to 4k as a baseline.
As a PSO, I’m slightly annoyed with the layouts lol. I feel you could’ve gotten much better ball reaction with all of them if you had your PAP measured and laid out the balls to your PAP. From what I saw, lines were just thrown on there and drilled not really to anything specific. Just my personal opinion but otherwise I agree that the Venom Shock and Hyped Solid looked really good
That “Reign On” seems like a house shot killer. That thing was gliding
my buddy still uses one from when they came out and it really is, plus he's a lefty, that ball just won't gutter!
@@Rascalibur Nice! I’ll be looking to add another ball soon, I’m just beginning my serious bowling journey, so I’m developing technique presently, but I’m already keeping an eye out on new tools and additions for me. This one will for sure be in consideration.
I love your journey man. Let us know when you bounce back and set your lifetime high series two-handed! Took me over a year
Gotta beat 825. I barely even bowl league anymore, not nearly as much as I used to back in the day lol
Fill a ball with water.
LOL imagine
Please do this
Yes
Your honesty and sense of humor are refreshing . Good luck.

As a two hander I like mild asym balls best. Some of the stronger symmetrical stuff seems to give me too much shape but hey to each their own.
Surface surface surface!
If your mainly bowling league ths weak cores and covers symmetics are nut for 2 hand high revs would suggest trying one out
You did it Bro!!!! I think you are going to love being a two hander! Good luck this weekend!!!
Hey 220 the hyped solid is hands down my favorite ball in my bag so versatile. Good luck with your 2 handed game I love the channel
I hit my revenant with a 3000 pad just to knock the reacta-gloss off, and it rolled so much better for me. May want to try that if you find it inconsistent. I bowl one handed but no thumb so its laid out with a 2LS layout
Your editing skills have really gone up in this vid! Love that you haven't forgotten about 2-handed 😈
Also, your rev rate 2-handed is nutty wtf
i have the pink widow and the hyped solid. both are amazing for house shots.
I've heard messing with the surface on the Revenant helps with the down-lane reaction a ton.
Really good video! I liked the hyped solid, venom shock and reign on. The Revenant is definitely a straighter ball itself.
I think the Nova and honestly a Fate would probably do well here
I really like the hyped solid. I have one drilled for thumb in and another for thumb out.
@@ripvanrevs I need to drill one without thumb
Dude you're killing me with your kitty lol ........ proud of you in all your efforts!
Venom shock is a smooth earlier hooking ball that ball to i had one! and they just came out with a step up from that u should to looknin to and get one black venom! black and gold ball

What is your opinion on the pink black widow ball? Looking at getting it for my first ball.
You look much more comfortable than when you started 2 handed. Keep up the good work and best of luck!

Yea I had a feeling you liked that Venom lmaooo might have to check that one out as a 2 hander myself
I love that we are gonna be seeing some cool balls😏
The venom looked good once you got lined up and the angle figured out. Good luck in the regional, let us know which of these balls that work in it.
That was the regular venom not the venom shock. Although they have the same core and cover stock it doesn’t say venom shock on the ball. I actually had a venom shock the shock was green on the ball
Good luck in Dublin!
Hey what system did you use to layout the balls? I noticed you didn't drill through the center of the Center of Grip line if using 2LS
If I had to choose one from your arsenal, I would pick the hype solid
Looking forward to some regional vids man good luck
The Reign On looked great.
Good luck, Mike. /two thumb's up
Takes a week for me to get one ball drilled at my pro shop (if I’m lucky). Nice to know the pro shop person and drill 6 in a day!

Venom shock is so goated. Love mine to death. I'm glad you are liking yours
It seems like a fun ball so far lol
Brooo keep your purple hammer for 2 handed plugged balls are awesome
I redrilled the thumb 😐 I might have to replug it again though, it rolled so good
If you like the venom shock you should get the primal it’s even better
Damn it must be fun to throw a full new arsenal
what speed do you throw at? im a two hander as well and changed my release recently and im finding it hard to get my ball to react the same way
you didnt show the black widow😅😅(thats the one im using too rn)
As a two hander I prefer more control balls, since I can do a lot with my hand at the bottom but it’s always a good idea to have a mix of stronger and weaker balls.

Lots of lvl 3. It takes a bit longer to lay out though.

you finally use the pro drill instead the house drill lol
