900 Global Harsh Reality Pearl Bowling Ball Review | Exotic Gem Replacement?
In this video I will examine the ball motion of the newest 900 Global bowling ball release the Harsh Reality Pearl. As I analyze the ball motion on a fresh house shot I will compare the Harsh Reality Pearl to the Storm DNA Coil and one of my favorites in the line the Storm Virtual Energy Blackout.

    @djbelc01 Před 3 dny

    I am actually surprised how nice you were able to get the Harsh Reality Pearl to work for you on the house shot. Based off the specs, I assumed it would be too much core and too much cover, but I guess I was wrong! It definitely shows though that getting the surface right for 1) you as an individual bowler and 2) the lane conditions you're on makes such a big difference, doesn't it? A few weeks ago I drilled an Attention Star and found it was a bit too clean and too flippy for me out of the box, but once I just cracked the polish a little with a 2000 pad to give it a little more traction while keeping most of the polish on, it absolutely came to life. It started shaping the way I wanted, reading the midlane while still really coming off the spot hard, and I've been striking a ton with it.

    • @PeteDohanJr
      @PeteDohanJr Před dnem

      The Harsh Realty and Pearl are too strong for me on house. When I do videos for the stronger asymmetric pieces I try to film on the fresh house shot when the bowl opens. I don’t have a lot of balls with the polish still on then. With all the different conditions I bowl on polish doesn’t give me a predictable ball motion. Thanks for watching. The Attention Star is a great ball. Glad you like it.

  • @mikewrobel2881

    I left the 2-4-5-7-10, that was ugly! Is that because the ball was out of energy?

    • @PeteDohanJr
      @PeteDohanJr Před 3 dny

      I think it’s more the ball is confused at the end of the pattern because of the carry down created by the balls going down the lane. There’s not enough friction so the ball wiggles and when it final hooks it’s too late and doesn’t go through the pins correctly.

      I think this is close to the Altered Reality. For me the Harsh Reality is quicker down lane than the Reality so the pearl will be quicker off the end of the pattern than the Altered Reality. Thanks for watching.

    The original Cell is my favorite ball I've ever thrown, and the Hyper Cell was also wonderful, so I just went ahead and ordered this one as soon as it came out. It's waiting at the shop to get drilled up right now actually. However, I did get to throw an X-Cell last weekend before mine arrived! There was a Storm Matchmaker event in town that day that I found out about last minute. The good news is the X-Cell seems to be everything I hoped it would be -- the same type of motion I got back in 2008 from the Cell, but with the strength to handle today's oil conditions. It has enough teeth to handle oil downlane, but it doesn't want to use up all its energy early like my Gem. I saw that same motion you described, with the ball reading the midlane in a way that you can visually see it start to rev up, then it waits a moment before it really grabs and turns left off the spot, and it just keeps going with really impressive continuation. I haven't had this type of motion in my bag in years since I dropped to 14lb and began rebuilding my arsenal from scratch, and it's really been something I've been trying hard to find without luck until now. Also, as someone who is a bit rev challenged, I do not mind one bit seeing you stay around 2nd arrow in your review videos, because that's where I end up usually having to play as well, and it's a nice change of pace from most reviews where guys with 400+ rpms are getting in front of the ball return by the end of the video, since I am not really learning much from that!

    • @PeteDohanJr
      @PeteDohanJr Před měsícem

    Hi, how are you? I watch other people bowl on CZcams. This is my first time coming across your channel. Very interesting way you do it compare. Especially multiple bowling balls from the very top to the bottom I think I just got in the Bowling too late last year. I just wish they’d never discontinued the proton physix, the supernova and the infinite phyisix. The first two are your classic strong asymmetrical shape. The gem is too strong while the other ones are a little too clean but when you do need an asymmetrical pearl, the infinite in my opinion looks symmetrical, but it’s not if there’s any discontinued 15 pounders out there I would love to have at least one of the solids. I just said if not the infinite or both eventually to my arsenal

    • @PeteDohanJr
      @PeteDohanJr Před 2 měsíci

      The Virtual Energy Blackout is close to the same ball motion as the Infinite Physix just a little longer. I use the Absolute Power as my strong asymmetrical piece since the Gem is too strong for me to use. Thank you for watching and the comment. I appreciate it.
