Been throwing my dad's Victory Road for the past two weeks since I've been home for break, haven't started my own arsenal until now since I've been busy at college. First ball will be the IQ Tour Pearl, I was a big fan of the Black Widow Pearl and am hoping it will be similar. First chance to use it will be Wednesday night, we'll see how well I do with it, the Victory road has gotten me a 665 and 660 series the past couple weeks. I'll be sure to let you guys know how it does.

UPDATE: Alley is closed due to the snowstorm tonight, do not know when I'll get a chance to use the ball. I'll keep everyone posted

Got mine a couple of weeks ago, you'll love it, very smooth through the front, strong but very predictable backend. Will no doubt get you high scores.

I threw a game with my pro shops demo and it is a great ball. Very predictable and hits hard. But I must say it is one of the ugliest and worst scents Storm has come up with. Those two factors made my decision to go with the DV8 Terror that much easier. And all the deviants on this forum too.

Finally got a shot to use the ball the past couple days. A little background first, this is the first ball since I graduated from high school drilled for my hand. My dad had had the same span etc. a few years ago, but now my hand is about 3/4 inch longer than his, and I had been using his equipment through college until now.

Firstly, yes it is ugly and I'm not too fond of the butterscotch smell, but if it plays like it did for me I won't mind at all. My first reaction to this ball was wow. I have a 5-4-3 drill pattern and OOTB finish, and it reacted exactly the way I would like with my varying hand positions and speeds. My first game with it shot 253 playing my A-game, which is deep and hit 10 at the break point for our THS. After that I started playing with it to see how it reacts to other positions/speeds. It took me 8 shots to strike while hitting arrows 1-6. This ball gave me the easiest adjustments of any ball I've thrown as it's very predictable on the backend.

I know this isn't the most professional review, but I hope to get video up sometime soon since actions speak louder than words.
