As I discussed recently, I have a QZ1 Red Pearl drilled for short patterns like Cheetah and Viper. I drilled up a QZ1 Purple with a low pin under the bridge with the cg kicked out 45 degrees and a XH on the VAL in the middle of grip. This layout will match up to my TR2 which is a lot stronger ball, but I wanted to match up the QZ1 Purple layout with the TR2, so I can simply change cover stock and weight block when the lanes start to change. I want a similar ball read just a little later down the lane, as the TR2 is much earlier and stronger.

The QZ1 Purple, is very clean thru the fronts just like the QZ1 Red Pearl, but has an earlier reaction in the mid lane and very smooth. On the backend, the QZ1 Purple has a very strong roll and continuation through the pins. I use the QZ1 Purple on the Chameleon PBAX pattern, I'm sure on a house shot this would be a ball to have in the bag. I have recommended to people looking for a two ball arsenal, to go with the QZ1 Red Pearl and Purple, both with the same pin placement and layouts, and let the cover stock dictate which ball to use.

I drilled up the new MOTIV SR2 as part of my arsenal. I've decided to keep all of my layouts similar, allowing for the coverstock and weight block to make the difference in ball reaction. I drilled the SR2 pin up middle of bridge and cg 45 degrees, with an XH on my pap. My TX1 has the same layout, its long with a strong move on the backend. The SR2 with this layout gives me a similar look, with an earlier read in the mids. This ball punishes the pins and offers really good carry on light hits, my only league is on PBAX, so I know on house shots, this ball would be awesome to have in the bag. On PBAX patterns, the SR2 is very predictable and works good on 39' and longer parterns. Shorter patterns liks Cheetah and Viper, the QZ1 Red Pearl is perfect.

Propel Pearl Coverstock
Propel Pearl is an evolutionary coverstock developed by Brunswick to improve the mid-lane and backend traction of the ball on today's slicker oils and lane surfaces. The Propel Pearl coverstock was discovered through testing of new formulation additives and process changes in coverstock manufacturing.

MACE Core
Mechanical Asymmetric Core Engineering. The MACE core has three major benefits: ultra-low RG core system to engage the Propel Pearl coverstock, high RG differential to aid in traction through heavy oil and high RG asymmetric differential to quicken the response time to friction. Designed as a two-component elliptical core system, the MACE core is dynamically the strongest asymmetric core ever produced for a Brunswick ball.

Ball Motion
The Evil Siege unites the Propel Pearl coverstock and the proven MACE core to produce a ball motion that is strong in the mid-land and aggressive on the backend. The Evil Siege is the ball when your game needs help battling medium to oily conditions and poor pin action.

MOTIV QZ1 available in a red pearl and purple pearl. I have drilled the QZ1 red with a tall pin for short cheetah and viper patterns. The red pearl clears the heads and reads the mids with a nice controlled backend move. I'm going to drill up a purple pearl with a low pin for mid length patterns. I'll report on this ball soon. Check out the special price on the QZ1 purple for a limited time. Visit bowlerswherehouse.com for more information.

On January 28th, Storm rolls out the Reign of Fire.....

The key to the Reign of Fire™ is the utilization of the R2S™ solid reactive coverstock.  From its inception, it has proven to be one of the most versatile coverstocks ever manufactured.  With its strong surface profile and excellent friction characteristics it was the obvious choice for this latest release.

The fuel for the Fire so to speak is the C.A.M. ™ (Continuous Axis Migration) weight block. The combination of the unique contours along the weight block with the strategically placed weighted mass blocks deliver optimum mid-lane roll with volatile backend reaction.

An INVASION is coming on January 28th - 2010!!!!!

Some... THING... attacked Premier City without warning. Our site sustained heavy damage and many were taken, but we gathered what we could and scrambled quickly underground. When the invasion occurred, we were in the midst of testing the next generation of advancement in core and coverstock technology.  Our first goal was to develop a strong asymmetrical design different than any other.  The concept was to create contours along the RG planes to ensure a stronger preferred spin axis.  We did this by developing intersecting contoured bands from the X-axis along the Y and Z axes.  These bands are developed at specific arcs to maximize RG and differential values along the planes.  In turn, this translates into a quicker revving core with a more defined moment of inertia or breakpoint unlike any prior design found on the market.

The all new Origin™ core boasts a 2.48 RG value with .057 total differential and a .017 intermediate differential.  Using C.A.T.S., we tested the Origin™ core up against the Shape Lock™-HD core with same coverstock to see the differences, and we were amazed by the results.  The Origin™ core started into the “hook” phase about 3 feet sooner and created a stronger entry angle to the pocket.  Usually when we get the ball started into the “hook” phase sooner we see less entry angle to the pocket, but this core with the contoured bands along the RG planes definitely showed us something different.

The finishing touch was the R3X™ coverstock.  This third generation of Reactor™ series coverstock has the highest Ra values ever produced by Storm products.   Based on the USBC Ball Motion Study we know that higher Ra values produce more ball motion in the oil, and this coverstock is no exception.  We saw a 9% increase in friction values in the oil and an increase of 5% down the lane over its predecessor R2X™ utilizing C.A.T.S. testing.

Although we still do not fully understand what is happening, nor the extent of the anarchy above ground, we vow to finish our creation and release it January 28th, 2010. For pricing visit, bowlerswherehouse.com
