Wow! I like the look of this ball. Looks a lot (to me) like the Storm Lights Out in its reaction.

I tell you what, I like Lane side review a bunch!! I think they give without a doubt the best reviews on balls out there. Not just the video of 3 different bowls, but they talk about their impressions of the ball. GREAT JOB Lane Side Reviews!!!

I got to throw this ball during a Brunswick / DV8 / Radical demo for the league I bowl in. This ball had a very smooth and controlled reaction. I usually have difficulty throwing bowling balls with pearl coverstocks. I had no problem throwing this one. Definitely on my radar of bowling balls to get since its on the list of bowling balls I get at the end of my league.

We've got a Hammer league at my center. Maybe I'll get in on that league when I'm ready to join one...

funny the Deadly Aim is VERY different then all my storm balls. I like that it has that: (as you put it ), VERY smooth controlled action, doesn't do the hokey stick dive at the end.

I can't knock storm balls, they gave me my two perfect games! I still think the Hammer is going to give me something Big soon. I might have to give this ball a good look. It just might be my next ball! (like I need one!!) (:)

Yes,,, I am Iceman, I am a ball-a-holic! I need HELP!!

I also like Laneside Reviews also! I like the commentary and tell you how it can be tossed. The other reviews just don't help me.

I like Laneside Reviews a lot. Their details and information is spot on each time. Those guys certainly know what their talking about.
