    Default Which Is Better Brunswick or Storm

    I will say that they both make good bowling balls. But I will say that storm is better, because the max balls kinda suck(in my opinion) and the storm high performance balls are a lot better. Tell me what is better

    Its your own personal preference.. Picking one or the other doesn't make sense to me, just choose what ball you want to bowl with! Both make great balls.

    I agree here its your own preference. Both are good companies, its just a matter of matching with which ball will work best for you.

    Of course one is better than the other. Look at television shows for the PBA, other than Sean Rash, how many brunswick guys do you see on there regularly? Storm has one or two in the the top 5 every tournament. The Nexus is a great line, but Storm makes a ton of good balls. I am not just saying that because I am on their staff. I owned 12 Storm Balls and one Columbia before I signed my contract. Storm makes more great bowling balls than any other company, hands down. Brunswick is notorious for making balls that use all their energy to hook, and roll out before they get to the pins. They work well for women bowlers, due to the lower rev rates, but are not good balls for the general bowler. Storm makes the strongest, and most versitile equipment on the market. The Storm Hy-Road has stayed on the shelf, and sold well since it came out in 2008! Tell me another ball that can stay in production and continue to sell for 3 1/2 years? Storm is the best bowling ball company there is.

    Storm also sponsors most of the top athletes, so it would make sense that you'd see more of their guys on TV shows, so I feel like that argument is kinda weak. Regardless, Storm is probably "better" when you look at it on paper and everything, but at the end of the day for most people, its going to be about what works for them. Not everybody is a world class level bowler, so they may like how they throw the nexus, revolver, csystem, etc more than they like how they throw a nano, marvel, crossroad, etc.

    yeah it just depends on how the ball feels to your style like me i use to bowl with hammer for 3 years and i loved there balls but after awhile i threw a couple more different company bowling balls and i seen that columbia300 and tracks balls worked much better for me i do still carry a hamemr bowling ball just in case ifi need abit of a kick to the pins.

    i have never thrown a storm bowling ball but i know alot of people that do and they love them like the frantic one of my buddy got his went to leuage and right out of the box shot a 300 in his 3rd gme finished with a 786 series and then the next week at a turnny he shot another 300.

    but one thing i would like to do is get a brunswick bowling ball like the nexus and try them out and see how i like them my brother has a twisted fury solid he liked it but it never always worked for him and his 2 handed style but the nexus would do great cause sean rash has got abit of revs jsut over avg mabyand he throws it fast and he dose pretty good with it i think if he used a storm ball it might be too reactive for him.

    I bowl with both, and I can tell you this much. If you put a Brunswick ball and a Storm ball in the same bag, they'll go at it like cats and dogs. They don't respect each other. Thankfully, I can only bowl with one at a time, and this has saved my game.

    Seriously, if there's a difference in quality, I can't tell it. Neither magically makes me better than I am with the other.

    Maybe if someone gave me a bag full of one brand, some shirts and paid my way to go roll in tourneys, I could be swayed on that. hint hint.
