Storm X-Factor Deuce Bowling Ball

This is a great ball plainly said. Originally i had it polished, but it just never worked out for me. I never could carry a 10 pin with this thing. So i had it sanded to change the angle of entry. WOW! Since then ive been throwing a wrecking ball. It hooks when my Colossus pearl doesn't, and it caries the dime about 90% of the time. From now on i think ill be sticking to Storm. Storm is great!!! Storm is the best!!! Now on nuthin but Storm!!! ja ja ja da da da. de de da. ja ja de de da da da.

This ball is just one more great addition to the X-Factor series. The duece goes long down the lane, then decides it wants to go the other way around. As long as there is head oil, this ball crushes the pins everytime. Put away when the heads are shot, not much room for error. This ball looks great going down the lane, most of the time the first time I throw it, I never expect it to come back as strong as it does, but it always manages to take that left turn for me and crush the pins. When there is oil, I can use this ball and create some area for myself

I purchased this ball from a Pro shop in Southern Connecticut. Being that I'm from upstate NY, I liked this pro shop's pricing and it saved me $30 on this ball drilled and after tax compared to buying it from a local pro shop. Plus I like the way these balls get drilled. I'm a Stroker with a 15-17mph ball speed and medium/low revs on this ball. As an owner of the original X-factor, I wanted something that hit harder and made a stronger move for oilier conditions. The Deuce seems to fit the bill perfectly. I had this ball drilled up and the first games I shot were 180, 200, 200, 218. Normally I don't do so well on the first game with a new ball, but this ball was better than I expected. I was bowling on Synthetic lanes (which I am not used to) and still bowling my average and higher. During my league play (wooden lanes) the other night, I bowled a 255, 247, 205 = 707 which is my highest yet. I have this ball drilled with the pin at 2 O'clock above the right finger. (see drilling

Another excellent ball in the Master Line. The ball is drilled stacked leverage, pin above fingers RAD kicked out about 1 1/2" left of thumb. This ball is the first out of bag and usually the one I stick with the most on pretty much all conditions. I recently shot a 300 (my ninth sacntioned) in Carson City, Nevada on Halloween of 2003(just missed a 800 by 4 pins!). This ball just destroys the pins no matter what line you are playing, sometimes thought it is a little too strong to play the outside but that's just me.

The first 50 games: this ball hooked a ton and hit like a mac truck driving through the pins. Carried the corners extremely well. If when I had a corner pin standing I usually got a messenger to get over to the pin to either knock it out or just miss it but all the messengers flew over very fast. I am a stroker usually do not usually put much hand in the ball; throw between 15.5 and 17 mph. When I first got this ball i had to stand 27-29 throw to 15 (third arrow) to 7 at the break point just to keep this ball on the right side. Since the first 50 games: this ball has lost a lot. It didn't lose its hit but do not get the messengers like i used too. Now i have to stand 18-16 throw pretty much straight down the boards like second arrow or outside or inside of that just to get this ball to the pocket. I haven't thrown a belly or an out line like 10 at the arrows to 6 at the break point for about a month now. The drilling is Storm's i believe #3 drilling it is for heavy

good ball for then money, if you want this ball to last you years dont buy. Vary nice complament to the original x factor but in no way better than it. But if you buy a ball after each year(or every other) then its a must have for any1 on wood lanes with a basic christmas tree oil patern. I wouldn't spend more than 140 on a new one, just don't last as long as some other gear does. now have up to date equipment(fear factor, raging inferno, phenom). as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as

this is still my most versitle ball in my aresenal. i had city tournament today and used the reloaded and shot 676 well i went and decided to bowl afterwards to get some more practice is, after getting my thumb hole slightly dulled i shot 279 234 299, that means its practically i gurante i would have bowled great with this ball. i have shot 3 300's and finally my second 299 with this ball. everyone should have this ball if they ever wanna be a good bowler or even fi you are just starting out. well now i must just try to enter the minium number words, gosh let me see now

Now that I've calmed down, I'll clean it up a little bit. =) I bought this one over the summer on the advice of my driller. I have it drilled pin above fingers, CG just SE of the ring finger with the RAD 4" east of the thumbhole. I have about 20-25 revolutions throwing between 15.1 and 15.7 mph between the 2nd and 3rd arrows. It has a very smooth arc in with a little extra snap at about 40-45', but it'll carry almost anything if it's close enough. I've been told that it "crucifies" the deck when it puts all 10 in the pit. There are times though when it just doesn't fit my style and overreacts, probably because of the drilling setup or the house oil pattern (or even both). After about 68 games, I'm averaging 201 with it. I'll probably replace it for leagues and save it for lanes with a little more oil.

Usually they say that the first ball of a series is always the best.. for example the original icon or the vortex 2.. but this is completly the opposite dont get me wrong the orig. xfactor is a good ball ive had 2 but the deuce is much for forgiving. Mine is drilled the same as my raging inferno just a closer pin.. pin under ring cg at 45 degrees with an axis 6 1/4" out. This ball rolls alot in the early part of the lane an has a backend that i have never seen b4.. this ball rips.. an when it hits anywhere in the 1 - 3 hole pins are everywhere.. i cant even count how many times i threw dead wood on a strike shot!! this ball fits in nicely between a fear factor and a reloaded!!! Any1 who drills this up be prepared to see some great hit in a bowling ball

Storm is a great bowling ball company. Their newest X-Factor line seems to be great....every ball so far has worked wonders for many bowlers on this website. The deuce is different than the original. Unlike the original the deuce has a solid reactive coverstock. It has the ability to work on oil playing the second-third arrow. The ball doesnt have the snapping action of the re-loaded. The deuce has a much smoother inside line. The ball also has good flagerence....blueberry. I suggest anyone this bowling ball by storm. If you enjoy storms balls or like a solid reactive ball without snap the deuce is defintely the ball to go with.

The best backend I have ever seen on a bowling ball. Ball is drilled with pin at 2:30, eye of the storm off center, mass bias down and right, in line with the core. No weight hole needed. Ball gets down the lane if you have oil. you have to stay in the oil. If the oil line drys up move left and find some more. I never worry about the ball coming back. I can throw the ball as hard as I want to. Sometimes I have to take a deeper backswing in order to keep using the ball. Will be a great tournament ball for heavy oil. Great for carry down. Nice compliment to the XFactor. That is my dynamic duo. Add my Tornado and my White dot and I can cover any condition. I'm ready for my first tournament.<scr

This is my first storm ball. After all the good comments on the x-factor balls series, I decided to give it a chance and get one of this balls. This balls has become my first ball when oil is fresh on the lane. It´s solid reactive coverstock makes it a very predictable ball with a tremendous hitting power on the backend. Whit my X-factor deuce, I have reduced the percentage of corner pins left on every game, while I´ve increased the percentage of strikes. I throw my first 700+ series a couple weeks ago and a couple 290 games.

I picked this ball up for $50 from a friend that got it at the end of a league. I had the ball drilled up for the max aggressive reaction. The first time I used the ball my pin count went up about 20-30 pins. I usually throw down the second arrow and adjust from there as lane conditions let up. For some odd reason I find this ball very unpredictable. One minute you are crushing the pocket the next your hitting broklyens. I have found with this ball most of my strikes are broklyens but when you hit the pocket it is devastating to the pins. So far my local alley has had to polish my ball several times due to the fact the ball recieved scuff marks from the pins. This ball is for med to heavy oil, never play on dry conditions because you will be hooking out of the building.
