Storm Sky Bolt Bowling Ball

Way cool! Some very valid points! I appreciate you penning this post plus the rest of the website is extremely good.

Great ball, This ball snaps into the pocket with authority, I had a 190 average and almost every game is over 200 with this ball. The Fury does not like dry lanes at all, to throw on dry I cannot move far enough to the left and have to use way to much arm. Bring the ball to a reputable pro shop and have it drilled out to suit your needs, I throw a slower ball with less back swing and once the conditions are right watch out. Keep the ball clean, I clean if after every throw. This ball will suck up the oil fast.

I bought this ball to experiment with as I hadn't had a fingertip before and thought it was about time I tried it. The ball was 13lb which is too light for me, plus it wasn't the right ball to try to learn fingertip with - I would have done better with something designed for light oil. Having said that it moved quite well even with my low revs and helped my average. Anyone who gets medium to good revs would probably see it go coast to coast each throw. Pin action was good as well - this ball seemed to keep them lower than others I'd thrown up to that point. If I found one in 15lb (or 14lb for that matter) I'd buy it immediately. Recommended.

I found this ball in the pro shop while cleaning it out and decided to give it a try one day but playing around. To my surprise the left handed drilling gave me a ton of length and just incredible back end. I went out and threw one game punching the last eight strikes in a row. I decided to keep it around in case I ever need great length and back end. Our center just recently went through a shot change and in the process a couple weeks the lanes were very strange and I could not get any reaction out of my equipment so I pulled out this ball and shot back to back 259s. I used it until the shot was straightened out and then stored it away until today when I bowled in an eight game block tournament on a PBA pattern which flooded the lanes. One again this ball was the only thing I could get to hook. I ended up finishing -74 and in 7th place with the winner at -29. So I will definitely be taking this ball to nationals this year and I hope it comes in handy.

This is one of the greatest balls that I have ever had because all this did was strike and provide hook with a monster backend at the breakpoint. The ball was absolutely unbelieveble on any condition that it was thrown in and it was extremely versatile all the time. The ball really turns the corner extremely hard with an absolute bang at the backend as it has a great flip. Storm had never gone wrong with this ball at all as it deserves all the credit for being extremely clutch all the time, it is a striking machine. The ball just seems to never lose focus as it reads the lane almost perfectly.

This is still one of Storm's best balls. I recommend Storm to bring back this ball on the market like some of these other ball companies that bring back some of their balls back on the market. Only thing when you resurface it, bring it back to 800 grit, especially if you are a cranker with a lot of speed. If it rolls too early, bring it up to 1500 smooth or even 2000 abralon. I shot my first 300 ever with this ball on some terribly conditioned wood lanes. Edit: Found 1 on ballreviews.com that I got from a member and another one on eBay! Gold mine find baby!!

Oldie but goodie. One of the best particle balls I've ever thrown and still keep it in my bag. This ball was drilled stacked max leverage and this ball for its time hooked more then the El Nino!! This a great ball if your looking to get it outside but still have that control without worrying about it to be tooo touchy. This ball Does get dirty fast so maitence is a must. I would like to find one of these either new again or barely used. Great ball by storm and would like to see something similar in the near future.

I got this ball about 3 years ago, and I don't know what I'd do without it. With this ball already having tremendous backend, what did I do? Yup, drilled it for more. Man does this ball give me some great reaction on any condition. Im a high-rev player, and like to stand about 30 then swing it to 12, the ball turns at the right time and keeps the pins low. AWESOME pin-action. The ball does have the capability to be thrown perfectly straight, I have had no problems picking up the 10 pin... just flatten the wrist and it'll roll straight... great product storm... sorry that I am pickin up a raging red fuze here soon sometime... Ill definitely continue to use my sky bolt though...
