Yeah, have watched many many videos of Kris Prather's touch at the bottom of his release. Glad to know I wasn't just exaggerating in my own mind how absolutely sick it looked.

I only have one ball (along with my spare ball) but I am currently making a list of what products I would like to add to at least have a couple different options available. Currently throwing the Storm Nano Pearl. I am so happy to be able to get back into bowling now that my back is better.

Great video! My current arsenal is Proton Physix, Phaze II, UC3, IQ Emerald, Pitch Black and White Mix.

Best advice in the video for me, "if you want to join the tour..... got to throw urethane... hook the lane" Great info for sure. I got a new urethane and have wanted to make it my sort of my "safe ball". I can control it way easier than most. Although my raw hammer hybrid seems to be my best ball. I can hit the pocket anywhere on the approach (saying there's a tad of oil left at least).

Good stuff as usual. Thanks again D Tang!!🤙🏿💯💯💯

I'm throwing Zen, Fate, and occasionally Reality Check right now. My Zen is at 2000 because I need the teeth at my house, but once it transitions Fate is usually perfect. I only really use the reality check if its really hooking too much on the backends cause it is pretty controllable and not jumpy

great review ty Darren

You basically guessed whats in my bag lmao, great video and I see this helping a lot of people trying to build their bag

My benchmark ball is my Parallex effect then dark moss wolverine when transition. My goto ball is my nomad dagger when I am struggling. Dry lanes is my hustle cameo and have the zen master that for the oil

Been strictly a Motiv user for about 4 years now, but have just recently picked up the Night Road and love it! It goes with me everywhere as do my Jackal Ghost and Venom Coral

i have the hyroad hybrid its my go to 2nd choice ball my 1st go to ball is the Proton Physixs and the my 3rd choice to clean up is the tropical surge tropical is weaker but i had it drill to have alot of shape at the end

We have adopted the nut button on our league team. We have also made one to say “sloppy nut” for the “sloppier the better” strikes. Love the channel D.

Kind of hard for some of us to get so many bowling balls, but for someone like me i literally throw one bowling ball and that's all i have.....First ball i use to throw (Before it got cracked in half for me not taking care of it) was the Brunswick Red Zone.....Second ball that i have NOW is the Hammer Black Widow Legend.....for someone who ran the Red Zone for 10 years before they stopped making it, i won a few tournaments with it but i do want to up my ball collection for certain situations.....LOVE THE CONTENT BTW, keep it up

I agree 100% with this arsenal. My picks would be basically identical. I thought I was the only person that loved the iQ Emerald. Super underrated ball

More videos like these please! 🔥🔥🔥

That’s a great arsenal to have, do u usually carry a lot of pin up or pin down bowling balls? My arsenal is astro physics, Zen Soul, idol cosmos, night road, hyroad nano, & jackal legacy and a purple tank I travel with those bowling balls

Do you drill each one the same? Or asym and sym drilled the same? Great video as always

I originally bought a hot cell for corner pins and spares cuz I suck at throwing plastic or low hook/straight balls. Come to find out urethane is really good for finding out what and where the oil is and what line to start with or even creating lines to play.

LETS GOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! D TANG GANG NUT BALLS! Love the video yall keep it up! ZEN LINE FOR LIFE YO!

Darren I'm relatively new to bowling can u break down this steps of what these balls do in detail if that's okay? And why it be nice to have each specific one haha

This is really good to see and have you share your knowledge. I’m still working on the middle part of the bag. Top end of the bag: Quantum EVO Hybrid and Fate. Motiv Empire Pride and Hammer 3-D Offset are the current middle. Radical Intel SE and Hammer Obsession Tour Pearl are the low end.

I only have 3 balls in my arsenal, but I love it. I throw 900Global Zen Soul, Storm Absolute, and Storm Tropical Surge as a spare ball.

My most versatile bag is probably Pitch Black, Hyper Cell Fused(sanded), Parallax Effect, Phaze II, Zen, Burner Solid.

As of right now (5 Dec 22) for my Arsenal I am carrying is the Ebonite Aero, Roto Grip RST X2 (I love this ball. Use it most of the time), Roto Grip UC3, Storm Axiom, DV8 Activ8, Brunswick Rhino and the Brunswick T-Zone (Spare Ball). I've only been bowling for a little over a year now after a 30 year layoff. Started Aug 21. Finished league last year with a 184 average. This years league average is currently at 202 mostly using the RST on a house shot .

bag is pretty similar. edit: to add which ones: proton, p2, zen, night road, and pitch black. looking to add iq in there if i could get my hands on one

Production quality just keeps getting better and better and better... loving the content guys keep it up

I have a question for D.Tang Where should the thumb at the bottom of the swing when you put your fingers into the ball, been giving problems for years ??? really need your help thanks.

Darren what phase ball is the best and most consistent? I was looking at the phase 5 but proton PhysiX vs super nova

I just started bowling, shopped through bowlers mart online and I chose the zen. I had no idea it was such a good ball. I haven't bowled in years, and the second time I took it out, I bowled a 195

I would like to see you review the electrify go, it seems to be a very versatile ball that reacts well with rev and speed manipulation on transitional/dry lanes

Hey Darren I just got back into bowling on my first league since 6th grade I am bowling with a motiv shock I bought a few years ago is that a good ball or should I look to upgrade

A NUTTER good video. Thank you Darren

Could you do a video about your bags and the accessories in them or about your shoes and how you maintain them.

Im a two hander and I throw two Pitch Blacks and a storm Mix and that's my bag. I have a lot more bowling balls but everything seems to over hook my house shot.

Reality,zen,phaze2,hyroad,pitch black,phaze5. Other that I swap between gem and rst-x3. Thinking of drilling a reality or gem pin down but not sure

Cool video talk tech bowling Darren tang

Actually just Quantum Evo Solid and UC2 and Mix until I collect more 15 pound balls. Used to include Hy-Road Pearl, Phaze II, Trend 2 (now on the sus list) but they are 16 and not sure they are worth fixing the grip on.

My bag consist of: Hammer Web Pearl, Rotogrip Gem, Motive Trident, Purple Hammer. I really want a Phaze II. Any Recommendations would be awesome.

Just dropped from 15 to 14 pound equipment because of an injury. So building what balls to throw started all over..... At 15 lbs : Jackal Alpha, Tech Messager (original), Tank Blitz, Supra, Top Thrill, Blue Dot. Depending on the center swapping in are : Purple Tank, Desert Tank, Game Breaker 2 or Game Breaker 2 Phenom, PitBull Bite. Now at 14 lbs equipment: Brutal Collision, Blue Tank, Pride Empire, Top Thrill, White Dot.

Phaze III, hammer ghost, hyroad pearl, and a hustle always with me

I bowl for fun and only have 2 balls atm. The scorpion and path rising pearl. Looking into getting a third ball but don't have ton of money so need it to be the perfect pick

Mine…. Very Similar Proton Physix, Zen, IQ Emerald, Pitch Black. I never Tried the Reality or Phaze 2 But im sure I probably would have loved them both since our Nuts are exactly the same.

Currently have a fast pitch that I use mostly for league. I have a dark code yet to be drilled and to be honest not sure How i want to drill it. My hyroad pearl is just plain beat up. Not sure what I want to have in my bag between the fast pitch and the dark code. Zen soul maybe? Need suggestions.

Well, just getting serious about bowling.. I have the Night Road and that's it! Excited to build my bag off this though.

So if i buy the hy road pearl with it have the reacta gloss finish or the banned 1500 polished or will it come with 4K fast?

Global Reality, Roto Grip RST X2, Global Zen, Roto Grip Hyped solid, Roto grip Hustle Rap. Spare ball is an old school Razor. I have a Storm Gravity Evolve I use every now and then. Looking to add the Exotic Gem...

I've been using the black widow real monster and I just preordered the new excotic gem

I got a case of hyroad pearls just before they went to the 4k fast finish. If you’re interested

First reactive is HyRoad. What should I get next, Phaze 2 or Zen?

W VIDEO BABY, LETS GO MR TANG

Right now I'm bowling with a fate, and zen soul as a two hander sometimes I find it difficult when my fate hooks to late even on slower speeds, and my soul hooks to early, is there any reccomendation on balls or what to do?

Proton Physics, Rst-X-1, Idol Helios, Phaze II and HyRoad. If I know the pattern I will swap one out for an Axiom Pearl

What would you recommend for wood dry house shot

Yo Daren, I have an arsenal and could use some tips of the next few balls I should get I got a Gem Pitch black Dark code Phase2 And a purple hammer reactive

I have a Burner Solid that I had drilled up to 'simulate' an IQ Tour (I got it for free and didn't have the money for a new ball) that I'd go to first if I didn't know the center I was bowling at. I usually start with it in my Friday money league. I have an IQ Emerald, and Night Road and Hyroad Pearl to go down to when it starts to look like it's burning up. The Zen was great for me for a while but I get a lot of over/under now with it. I'd get a new one if I could.

Obsession tour ( solid ) , Nightroad , black widow ghost , attitude controls

My main bag(s) at the moment - Gem, Altered Reality, Phase 2, Zen, UC2. Also have the reality, RSTX1, Rubicon, Hustle Camo, and UC3 depending on the spot. I'm a bit more speed dominant, so the asym pearls, sym solids seem to be my main stay. The Altered is probably my most used ball. Have a blank stashed as well. Looking forward to the Exotic Gem.

I have a 3 ball arsenal Night road, raw hammer hybird, and spare ball Thinking of getting urethane when I’m able to shot 14lbs

where is the best place for beginners to find balls to purchase? Ive looked online and havent found a place that actually sells them. Just curious and looking to get into bowling as a beginner.

I have a pretty small total arsenal, but in my bag I have a night road, mix, zen, phaze II, Infinite Physix, and UC3, Im going to get a pitch black soon, but I don't know what to take out, probably the UC3

Gem, Pitch Black, P2, Zen, IQ Tour Solid, Hyroad 💪🏼

My go-to balls are Sure Lock, purple hammer, Zen Soul, Zen, Dark Code and Night Road

Right now in this order i have 1. Reality, 2. OG Physix, 3. Idol Helios, 4. Zen, 5. Idol Synergy, 6. Phaze 3, 7. Idol Pearl

Whats a good cliff ball?

An old Hy-road is always the first ball out of my bag and good for a game or two.

@DarrenTang can you clarify your ball order? In the video you said ball #5 zen, but you also said you put the in slot 3. Cleaner sym. You also said you will trade it out with a UFO alert but that is an Asym. I’m not trying to call you out I have most of this balls and So I’m just trying to put them in the correct slot and order. Thanks

My go-to is the Jackal Ghost. Second is the Blue Coral Venom and the Pride Empire. (Those are the only three I have thus far 😂 And sorry for no SPI balls 😬)

Zen Master, blk Widow 2.0, The Ifinite Physix, Dark Code. This arsenal works 4 me through all lane conditions that I bowled on so far.

I always have a mid high performance, high performance and a urethane (pitch black, phase and another ball!

Wait you used the 16 pound numbers for the hy road. Does Darren throw 16?

IQ is so clean ❤

I’ve been seeing a lot of night roads in league it’s insane

Hey darren what do you think of the black widow ghost pearl 2021 that’s what I have right now but if you suggest a new ball I could get one I like a aggressive midland ball with a lot of hook thanks for the help! 😊

When you only have the og idol pearl and venom fatal and no other ball so you can’t choose between “go to” balls😂

The balls I have are all hand-me-downs from people in the two leagues that I’m involved in. I’ve got two Groove balls from from Brunswick I believe. One is a power particle, the other is a urethane. The third ball I have is a Brunswick Laser.

Prism hybrid, kinetic platinum, and kingpin gold SE only been bowling for 3 1/2 years

Have you thrown the dv8 diamond diva?

Not much new in my bag.. finally moved to all 15 after throwing 16 all my life. My current three ball roller has a Rubicon as the strong ball, a Haywire, and then an old Frantic. If I really need urethane I will take my 16 pound Brunswick True Motion along as a bail out as it works when nothing else will.. sometimes. That Rubicon has a good layout and allows me to play much deeper than all my old weak layouts. The other two are definitely more outside of 10 on a THS. I can double up by using different hand positions and speed to create a different shape with each piece as well. If nothing in my current bag works, I can always go to the car and bring in the old 16 stuff.. a Track 716 C, my 16 pound Rubicon, and my old Messenger TI. But, being over 60 I am finally realizing that throwing 16 tires me out more than 15.. Never thought it would be that noticeable, but it definitely is.

I only have 1 ball currently and thats the Wolverine Dark moss. I want to get a pitch black for my arsenal and wouldn't mind another ball aswel but unsure on where to start. The dark moss was recommended by one of the guys at my local pro shop and its great for me but I haven't thrown any other balls apart from the house balls so im unsure on where to go from here. Any advice would be appreciated!

What layouts do you have for each?

Gravity Evolve, Omega Crux, Phaze II, original Hy-Road, Match Up Black/Orange/Silver, Mix Off-White

I have in my bag I Axiom solid,Dark moss,fate,phaze2,4,5

So each bowling ball have different purposes?

When do we find out who the winners are for the bowling ball giveaway

Andy need your help finding the right Urathane that is USBC approved

I started throwing B7 in the summer. I am loving the C300 Speed and the 3-D Offset remake (I’ve got two of them). Recently the lanes have been calling for the purple hammer for me a lot.

I have zen and hy-road in my main bag. Its a great one-two punch for me

I always go with the Pitch Black first to see how torched the lanes are.

Rubicon uc2/uc3, iq tour U, wolverine dark moss, zen, hy-road pearl

BALLS!

how heavy are these balls?

Do you ever review non-Storm balls?

I own a storm hyroad but it’s yellow and black

I thought u said the new belmo ball is gonna go everywhere with u, does it not perform that great or was that jus for advertisement lol

what coverstock is your reality

What's your average strike ball speed?

Gem, Wolverine, Zen, IQ solid, Hyroad, [Pitch Black and Purple Ham for flatter patterns] spare ball

Dude, my "arsenal" is pretty much just my Proton PhysiX. I have a 90's Power Torq that I throw once in a while, but that's about it, thus my hope to score a ball from you.

BANG!

X2 is solid for a cliff ball. Clean and will stand up too.
