Look for a demo day at your local center that has a pro shop. That will let you see if any of the new releases will work for your style. Last Storm Demo Day I found that the Axiom Pearl was too strong for me. Proton is definitely too strong for my speed/rpm combo.

I just got a Proton last week. I didnt have a huge asym in my bag, and usually dont throw something with that kind of potential, but let me jus say I fell in love. I have a 195 average, but first 3 games were 251, 225 and 209. Ball hits like a tank.

Nice to see a candid look at you trying out both balls. Could see it wasn't exactly what you expected out of the pin up. I'm guessing the pin up would show more shape if you shine it up a little? I usually like pin up balls, but the pin down looked better here.

Pin up I'm assuming is going to be best and that is how my current ball is set up what in trying to figure out is exactly how I need my ball drilled as far as to get the best ball reaction.

I know it's been 6 months. But I'll ask anyway. I always wonder this: are you doing anything to change how you roll the ball? As a two handed bowler there's a lot I can vary that the average person isn't going to notice. I throw each ball in my arsenal very differently as far as placement, but the first stroke is always the same. I need a point of reference to see if i need a stronger hook from my Physix, or a lighter one from my Tropical. If neither work I can usually use my Ice (spare ball) to make something happen with a more straight approach. What's the thought process for you in picking a ball to use?
