Buying your,first ball is dangerous. Soon you will want to keep buying more. One that hooks more, for spares, pearls, solids, etc. lol. It's a great thing! Enjoy!

I love that ball -- still have it in its original drilling. It's still in great shape (so far as I can tell).

I agree, it can be quite addicting.
You can't go wrong with storm though, excellent choice!
Here's mine. I believe it was purchased and drilled at Kmart. :D. http://thumbs.ebaystatic.com/d/l140/m/moE0AYlC08KxbNzehsH9oJQ.jpg

I wish I remembered what my first one was but I started bowling at 7 and that was almost 33 years ago. The first ball that I really liked and bought with my own money was a pearl blue hammer even today those are still nice rolling balls.

I have a MacBook & see all images. Cool on your first ball, and look out for many more! I remember seeing several AMF 3 dot balls when I started bowling. As for the Angle LD blue & orange...IIRC, AMF was a bit late to the short oil ball party & these weren't as famous as the Pink Hammer & Slate U-Dot. A couple of folks had one back in the day, and it seemed a lot better than AMF's Grey Ghost for dry lanes.
Here's to many great times bowling with your first ball.

I don't have a picture, but I remember my first ball I owned was a Columbia 300 Backyard Bully. During my high school bowling years. Then I had an avalanche up to senior year.

My first ball was actually something else -- It was a gray and white polyester ball I bought and had drilled at -- get this -- JC Penney, but I don't remember what it was. It wasn't a Brunswick. that would have been in either 1978 or 1979. No hook At. All. It may have been an AMF, but I couldn't tell you for sure. My S3D Classic I consider my first "real" ball.

My first ball was navy blue. It was polyester so it didn't hook at all. I do not remember what brand. I believe it was Brunswick. Come to think of it my second ball was also Brunswick and navy blue. Only difference was my second ball was not polyester. It was a Command Zone ARC.
