User questions & answers

Question: Does this ball work better on oily or dry lanes
Answer: This ball is primarily designed to work on dry to medium lanes. With that said it is also dependent upon the bowler’s rev rate and ball speed. If a bowler has a very slow ball speed this could work on oily conditions by adjusting the cover stock. However, there are balls in the Brunswick and DV8 lines that are better suited to the oilier lane conditions...
Question: Is this is a hook ball
Answer: As long as you get finger holes drilled in the right places, then you can use this bowling ball as a hook ball. The professionals who drill the bowling ball holes will be able to calculate where the finger holes have to go on your bowling ball.

Storm Hy-Road Max

Storm

Based on 3 reviews Check latest price

Product description

Continuing the long success of the Hy-Road line of bowling balls is the Hy-Road Max. The Hy-Road Max is a mid-performance bowling ball that uses the Inverted Fe2 core. This core is known to produce a higher RG presentation which typically delivers a later reaction as well as a cleaner shape through the front part of the lane. Storm has added the NeX Solid Reactive coverstock around this core. This coverstock offers more reaction down the lane. The makeup of the coverstock helps slow the ball which causes it to hook on medium oiled lanes.
