I lean on my pro shop to take care of the analytics. I tell them what I’m looking for and the spot I’m trying to fill and they work their magic. That being said I don’t change up my layouts too much just find a spot for the balls in my bag. Currently bring my gem, physix, fate and spare ball to league. Works well for my home center.

[@ianhoneycutt3858]

I'm not an analytical layout guy, but I do know what I want each ball to do. If I need a ball in my bag to go longer and snap harder, I'll tell my pro shop guy to drill it up, and it does exactly what I want it to.

[@FN24neon]

6:04 Definitely feel for me. Also I just got the infinite in November for SYC Florida and am loving it so far, definitely a rounder smoother shape useful for medium patterns. As a 2 hander I find it very useful when everything is hooking too much and I need something a little less angular.

[@larryroberts6614]

Great video! I would love to see a video on how you polish these balls, what grit pads you start with and the specific compounds or polishes you use...and how it might be different for different covers.

[@DuddyToh3]

Got a good pro shop guy that knows how I throw the ball. I don’t ask too many questions they all do what I expect them to do.

[@joesbowlingsportsministryt673]

I'm super analytical and I think it hurts me sometimes because I over think everything on the lanes

[@andrewguzman7395]

just hit pins lol

[@215RICARDOSCOTT]

Welcome to the club my friend 😂😂😂

[@kaosaechao56]

That’s me. I end up hitting 40pts lower than my avg when I over think

[@samuelpancake4084]

That's why I think bowling is 80% mental and 15% physical and 5%luck

[@christianmuriel4088]

Feel during League, analytical when practicing. Coming from a golf background I’ve learned to shut the left brain thinking off when I want to score well.

[@jimschultz6520]

I would like to see the 2 gems out of the box without any polishing or doctoring it. I have the Gem and really like it.

[@TheOutlawRaider]

Definitely analytical. I record stats from every shot in league, and have a spreadsheet I plug all of it into. That helps me plan out practice plans for the next week.

[@TakashiToupin]

6:04 100% feel here. Not quite sure I have two balls with the exact same layout but I can figure them all out anyway.

[@lildno2007]

Bowling always about the feel to me. I haven’t understood nothing technical about Ball layout yet and I been bowling league for 5 years. I adapt to what my ball doing on different lanes and go for more or less hooking action based off my speed for that day.

[@addictedTobowling]

I don’t know what my layout is. I just tell pro shop guy what I’m looking for and he takes care of it. Current league bag is Gem, Zen, and Night Road. Sometimes swap out the Gem for Infinite Physix

[@johnnyappleseed2667]

Finally 4k!

[@samuelpancake4084]

I just got this one drilled I've had it for like 6 months and I needed something for long oil and this ball is perfect

[@xaviersmith8958]

I’m definitely a feel player right now. I’m trying to be more analytical to help with consistency, but just takes time and study

[@scottythompson940]

Cool tech bowling bowling ball roto grip exotic gem with Nano technology in the bowling ball more strike hitting power at time Jr pro shop

[@BARBELLS-AND-BUDS]

I think the exotic gem with reduced ball speed looked the best on the titanium 44 ft. I believe it was called. I've mentioned to other people before the problem I have with the gym and the exotic gym is just the way the coloring looks when it's going down the lane. It's distracting so that I can't see the way the ball is rolling as well as with solid balls and with balls with a different pattern. I do think the exotic gem works well in a lot of situations. I just wish it didn't look that way lol.

[@drwisdom1]

I prefer multi-colored balls specifically because you can see the roll. My first ball was a Johnny Petraglia LT-48 which was a black rubber ball. You couldn't see a thing.

[@BARBELLS-AND-BUDS]

@@drwisdom1 multiple colors depending on the pattern can be really distracting to my eyes. But I do agree that you can see how much rev is on the ball based on the multiple colors. There's a lot of balls that have multiple colors that I still like. It's just the Gem and a few others that really don't look appealing to me.

[@georgeguinea9359]

Hey guys great video!!! I’m a feel player. What grit did you polish the Gem to??The Exotic Gem is finished to Reactive Gloss so what grit is that compares too??

[@critterdude311]

I would say I'm fanalytical. Feel first, with some analytics sprinkled in. I use the exact same layout on all balls, 50x3.5x35, but I use surface to tune how early or clean I want the behavior to be from there. Usually this will come down to the house I'm playing in and the general characteristics of said house.

[@jeremyfranklin1510]

Analytical player for me, always looking for different layouts on balls because I throw 12lb balls I'm not strong enough to throw 14 to 16lb balls yet, so I go for the strong coverstock balls and have different layouts to match my game style. One more thing, I was surprised that you didn't use RSTX-2 to compare it with the Exotic Gem.

[@tnjrcfl1]

Decent mix. Try to fill with right numbers but I've got to have a feel for what it really does compared to the rest, sometimes the numbers do not match up to what my eyes see and actual reactions are. Might be my delivery with said equipment, but regardless got to match up with it

[@corriepollard2380]

I’m def a feel player. I couldn’t tell you layout either. Just throw it and see how it reacts n figure it out from there

[@brianbuckner3651]

I am more of a feel player. Jungo how would you compare the exotic gem to the Rxt3, since you like the Rxt line? I am speed dominant player with average revs am trying to decide between the two.

[@drwisdom1]

I love my Axiom pearl but it was canceled. Does the Exotic Gem qualify as a replacement.

[@ruevr6753]

I definitely am more of someone who just feels what it right and makes changes based off of it rather than being analytical about my layout and other things. I do have my layout based off of how I bowl to help give me the best chance but other than that I just make adjustments based off of how I'm feeling

[@jamesbills5998]

Analytical for sure. BTW I have an RST x-2, Exotic Gem and an Infinite Physix NIB In the garage. Already have the OG Gem I used polished on house. Are they different enough to drill all three or no ? I do play on sport shots In regionals too.

[@vincepalmer9518]

I am an 83 year old long time bowler and love to keep up to date on new equipment. My issue is that most of us viewing your reviews do not have the ability or strength to deliver a shot like you guys; so what I (we) see is really meaningless. I would like to see someone with "less ability" test balls which would give me a much better idea of what equipment would fit into my game. Just slip in an old timer from time to time as a comparison.

[@Ironfangzu]

In that case you should watch "Laneside Reviews". They have a couple of high revving analysts who throw super strong balls, but also a 60'ish dad type who strokes the ball down lane about 12 miles per hour and with very minimal revs. Yeah, he bowls like a typical old guy. If you watch him throwing the new balls, you might get a better idea of how balls would perform for you.

[@vincepalmer9518]

@@Ironfangzu Thank you for the reply and suggestion

[@ThePrestoul]

I am having results with hybrids on house oiling, and not sure if that is a good thing. My arsenal consist mostly hybrids and they work so well on oily to mild dry, finding reasons to use my solids

[@BowlChad]

Jungo is back!

[@johnoteri4387]

I’m definitely a feel player who’s trying to get more analytical. So what is the difference between compound and polish and when should you use them? Thanks…

[@brettleitz5020]

I'm a feel player. I watch what my ball does and go by that.

[@EMPERORAFRO]

im both lowkey but im a new bowler im only 2 months in so im tryna find myself im analyzing and getting a feel but overall ill try to analyze

[@angrypanda69]

A feel. I get all my equiptment drilled the same then figure it out.

[@dosssdirtovalspecsuperseri4295]

I’m a storm roto guy but Jungos music is so good it makes me wanna buy every ball lol!

[@snugz1492]

Radical rattler review coming? Looks very similar to the venom shock.

[@dr.rubencruz1668]

Exotic gem vs parallax effect??

[@TraumaRider]

I'm still fairly new, not super analytical. I tell my PSO what I want the ball(s) to do and he delivers. I just have to execute.

[@cerealkiller8223]

should have compared it to the rst x3 too would’ve been amazing

[@kristopherdouglas2912]

I’m definitely a feel bowler

[@shedwrightoutdoors204]

I only have Motiv balls. But this Exotic Gem has my attention.

[@zackmattox9792]

Pure feel for me.

[@mikesanches6461]

What grit did you polish the gem at?

[@cliffdukes9324]

What layout would that be on the pin buffer

[@wolfpack97LD]

I let my pro shop guy do that I don’t know what kind I would be I just keep eye on what bowling balls seem interesting and good to me

[@joeanderson9267]

I'm a mixture of both. I watch a lot of videos and try to apply what I learned. However, my skill level is not the same, so my execution is not good yet.

[@remington1439]

Wow after looking at the 3 balls on the longer pattern I’d have to go with rolling the 1st original Gem being polished it looked a lot better than a solid Gem. But I do like the exotic gym because it has that color in it. That’s different than the original Gem

[@larryhudson1963]

The color isn't what makes it perform

[@remington1439]

@@larryhudson1963 Man I know this I was being funny about the two gems being different colors. That’s all. Funny Shelf appeal wise I like the Exotic Gem

[@atrout114]

All my balls have the same layouts on them it helps me see the difference between them

[@geoffnash3098]

I am more of a feel player I am learning slowly about layouts I like 5x4x2 layouts I don't understand mg of diff get maybe you can help

[@dennisbrinkley8613]

Surface 3000 grit I presume? Your layout 30 x 51/4 x 35 is very interesting. How did you choose this layout? I am very analytical. I have a notebook that contains all relevant data relating to layout and bowling ball specifications. I have the Exotic Gem. Layout 60 x 4 x 40. I wish I had chosen a more aggressive layout like 50 x 33/4 x 30. Nonetheless, I like the ball very much.

[@BuffaloSouthernrailfan]

Can you do a video with the exotic gem and the rstx2

[@michaeltovrea7947]

I use the force to play. Trying to be more analytical though.

[@Bloodth3Butcher]

Definitely analytical. I just changed my PAP with a much better release and track. Now that everything is so much stronger, I have to re-drill my gear on a new layout to get the look I need. 😂😂.

[@newsense636]

Try changing the surface first instead of redrilling your old gear

[@Bloodth3Butcher]

@@newsense636 I have. My Zen burns up and dies on me when I do and not enough polished....it was a dramatic change. I'm going to sadly say this, but I bowl one-handed with no thumb and my track at the beginning was beneath my fingers, horizontally. Now it's vertical and left of my fingers. Much better release and more roll. Unfortunately some of my stuff like my hustle wine is now at a 3" pin haha. It's that kind of change.

[@jdnance168]

Physics don't lie... my arsenals started making sense the second I learned and started paying attention to the science😁

[@michaelramos7136]

Blend of both. Enough knowledge of the gear to understand what it should do, but ultimately rely on what’s happening in real time to make adjustments based on feel, even if it goes against what I should be seeing.

[@pharris372]

Same here

[@bcw_arctic914]

That's the point to where I'd like to get to

[@CoachScott61]

Analogical. I like to know what works. Much easier to duplicate.

[@noso90]

Feel player but i do want to go towards analytical moving forward

BARKS!!! Hey wait a minute......You're not Barks. :) :) :) Not a Storm guy but this ball does look good to me. Well done Jungo.

[@machinethesun9243]

Would the exotic gem be a good replacement for a Halo Pearl?

The RST X-2 is very similar to what the Halo Pearl was. More so than the Exotic Gem

[@bcw_arctic914]

I'm pretty analytical, but I want to get away from that slightly bc I can think too much about things

[@drwisdom1]

I am neither a feel nor analytical player. I am a delegate player. I believe it is the pro shop operator's responsibility to bowl in the competitive leagues in their house. They study their bowlers style and shots. Then bowlers like myself can delegate ball selection and drilling layout to their pro. That is what you are buying when you walk into a pro shop. You don't want to be in a situation where the pro starts asking you about your shot. I am 66 and have been bowling in leagues for 43 years and that is what my much younger pro does for me. Last night I started with two 279s but choked the third game with a 184, oops.
