Storm Timeless

[vdubtx]

Used it last night in a higher volume house that I bowl league in. Ball certainly rolls really nice. My sweet spot is almost always over 15 and bump the 8-9. I used this as my spot last night and did pretty well. As is typical, I had to play each lane different. Right lane was not coming up on me so I made move right, came in light several times and the pins just mixed up and gave me very good carry. This ball keeps the pins low when it hits light which is a nice benefit.

Tournament starting tomorrow and will certainly be using this one to see what it does for me.

So just an update. Put a light coat of polish on it Friday night before league. Unfortunately I ended up on lanes 1-2 in my house (known for playing 5-8 boards dryer to start). I could control it, but it pretty much gave me the same initial read on that pair. I'll throw it again on my tuesday night men's league where we don't bowl on lanes 1-2 and see what happens. I love the reaction it has though, so I'm hoping the polish does the trick and I don't have to sand it down as I feel that will definitely change the drive the ball has on the back end

Used the Timeless on 8 of 9 games on my tournament this weekend. I love the way this ball rolls. Gets through the heads and starts up really nicely. 2015 all events score.

Even late in the Doubles/Singles set which is rolled on the same pair, I just kept going deeper and deeper and this ball preformed phenomenally. Easily went through the heads and finished really well.

I love the way mine rolls, I'm just thinking it's too much ball for our 40ft THS. Like I said, I put a little polish on it Friday night, I'll throw it Tuesday night and see what kind of difference it made. Have a pretty interesting tourney coming up on Saturday. 36ft on the left lane, 42ft on the right. Should be fun

Tried to throw it for a game last night and its just too much once it hits the end of the pattern on my house's 40ft THS. I'd rather not sand it, as it's going to come in handy the way it is when I travel for tournaments. I have a tournament here this weekend where we are laying a 42ft sport shot down on the right lane, so I'll see what happens with it on there. We just don't have the volume to hold that ball. I threw it the 10th frame of the last game only as it didn't matter (had already won my individual points and series points). Gutter capped it out to 7 at 16.5 mph and it crushed the pocket. It's going to be a great ball in my arsenal, just not in my home house

Can always get a polish that has a slip agent additive. Vise makes one that I use. It definitely tames the ball down. Easy to apply

Just like the vise polish mentioned, you can also try this...

This is the one I use.

Yes! Great stuff although I use the Snake Oil more often.

You guys must have as much oil as I typically bowl on. Well, when the lanes are ran that is. Usually the Timeless is something to ball down to.

I've applied a bit of the Storm Xtra Shine to it, and like I said, I think it's going to be a great ball to throw outside of my home house. I do bowl a lot of tournaments where they usually flood the middle of the lane and wall it up around the 10 board where this ball will come in handy the way it is now. I've been thinking about sanding it, but I know it will change the back end motion that I actually like. I'm thinking I just need to get some more games on it, but with my work schedule the way its been, its been hard to get down and practice. The only nights available have been Thursday nights, and I've been stuck late at work to get down there in time.

Update: Threw it this weekend during our challenge (36ft left lane, 42 ft right lane). Held well on the long, and I actually used surface on the short (phaze II), until I needed some length, in which I turned to the Timeless. Seems like I got enough games on it, it burned a track in and isn't so aggressive at the end of the pattern.
