controllable, smooth and a great midlane read

Amazing ball for almost every shot, house, challenge, sport.

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Best reactive resin ball ever made!

Storms best make no doubt about it, thinking of getting it? Just do it!!!

Strong mid-lane reaction, smooth and consistent back-end finishing power

Medium to heavy oil

Great baseline ball

Four 300's, two 800's ... Storm's best kept secret. They would have sold twice as many of these if it had a flashier looking coverstock.

Flawless Surface

Local Bowling Alley, Tournaments

IQ Tour is best bowling ball ever made!

Probably the best ball ever made. I have gone through 4 of these since it came out. I use it in local leagues, regional tournaments and state and national events. It's performance is predictable, and always my go to ball. I recently shot 866 (300,266, 300) in a league and never changed balls and got great length and consistent carry all night. Every bowler should have one in their bag.

Flawless Surface, Great Weight

Flaws In Surface

Storm IQ tour

I like shopping at bowling.com iv been a great customer for years

Control And Power

First ball out of the bag

Replaces Exhausted IQ Tour

Great ball. Strong down lane with control. Easy to use during transitions. First ball and often the only ball used during a league session.

Local Bowling Alley

the ball rolls nice

Attractive, Flawless Surface, Great Weight

300 in recent tournament!!!

I use this ball from league to tournaments. For me it is a great ball for the drier house shots and shorter tournament patterns as I have mine polished. Has plenty of energy to get around the corner from deep inside angles and doesn't over react off the misses outside. My son wants one now after watching it perform in last tourney.

Attractive, Comfortable Grip, Flawless Surface, Great Weight

Local Bowling Alley, Upgrade

Excellent move!

Wanted a ball that is a bit more aggressive and also work in heavier oil. I have had to stand a few more boards left of my usual place but the ball works well from there. I really like it.

Comfortable Grip, Flawless Surface, Great Weight

great piece

What can I say,this ball is a benchmark that is very predictable and hits like a tank.The ball motion of this ball is phenomenal, very strong without that skid/snap reaction.Storm always produces great bowling balls and the IQ Tour is just another in a long line of solid Storm products over the years.

Attractive, Comfortable Grip, Flawless Surface, Great Weight, Very controllable

I used this in league the first day I bought it and went 300. For a ball with surface it is super strong on the back until it gets oil in it then it seems to calm down.Dont plan on using this ball on fried conditions. On fresh you would kill with this ball . You dont have to work as hard...just get it off your hand. Great price!! Nice ball as a first out of bag piece.

Excellent Benchmark Ball, Reads Lanes Reliably

Local Bowling Alley, Tournaments, Upgrade

Amazing Ball!!!!

This ball really performs. It has a tremendous "feel" and has increased my confidence. I feel like the pocket has opened up for me by 20%. This ball has really excelled (for me) on medium to heavy oil conditions. I don't know if it is the core, coverstock or the combination of the two that gives it such a consistent feel. It hits like a freight train, the pins stay low, and they just keep falling. My strike / game ratio has increased from 5.2 to 6.8. This has resulted in me averaging 221 (I carry a 196 average) over the last 2 weeks. I am left handed and often have the left side to myself. This ball does not seem to eat up or push as much oil as my other balls and I have not had to make as many adjustments as I normally do. This was an excellent upgrade that I feel is giving me the confidence to take my game to the next level.

Great Scent, Smooth Reaction

Storm IQ Tour Review by Daniel Mareina

The Storm IQ Tour Edition is the C³™ Centripetal Control Core, with the R2S solid coverstock. This ball gives an unparelled smooth reaction, with the hitting power of most Premier Line balls. I drilled the IQ Tour with a 4 3/4" pin, 5 1/2" MB, and a 4 1/4" pin buffer. This is a lower flaring, smoother layout for me. The orginal coverstock comes at a 4000 grit finish. I used the ball for around ten games with this finish. I found that the ball read the lane really early, but didn't overreact. It resembled the reaction of strong urethane balls of the 80s, but still has power through the pins that the current Storm bowling balls are known for. This ball will be perfect for medium to heavy oil conditions. Due to it's very early read, and extended continuation throughout the whole lane, it should make adjustments really easy to make. I was able to see what part of the lane was drying out, and adjust accordingly much easier than with other bowling balls. Because my house shot is light oil, I polished the coverstock with a heavy coat of Storm Step 3 polish. This stopped all of the early read on the lane, and allowed the ball to clear the heads, and only have a light mid-lane read. By not using any of it's energy early on the lane, it multiplied the downlane power. I was able to move 10 boards to the right, and play almost straight up the boards. The ball still made a smooth reaction, albeit much later on the lane, and drives through the pin deck harder than any ball I have thrown to date. Amazing that a solid coverstock could be shined up, and still work as well as sanded. I flat out love this ball!

IQ Tour 60 x 4 x 75 Pin Down Let me first by saying "WOW" about throwing the IQ Tour. The IQ Tour uses the fast-revving symmetrical C3-Centripetal Control Core with a low differential of .029 in 15 pounders. The Tour uses the R2S solid coverstock (4,000 Abralon box finish). The IQ Tour should be nickname "midlane". The Tour is a ball that is hard to throw through the breakpoint. This is a ball that just reads the lane the correct way. Leaving the ball at box finish, I bowled on the Kegel Turnpike pattern and had great control of the pocket. This pattern doesn't have a lot hold and swing, so it was hard pattern to consistently hit the pocket. But with the IQ Tour strong midlane I was able to create a little miss room and score very well on this pattern. For league I applied Storm Step 2 Compound as our local houses are on the dry side. This gave me some added length but still gave me great control of the breakpoint. I could play up the lane or I could circle the lane with the IQ Tour. If you remember the Special Agent, the IQ Tour is very close. Even with the low differential I was amazed with the good hitting power and carry that it delivered. This is a ball that every tournament bowler should have in his or her arsenal. Great product from Storm! PAP 4 up 1-1/4

Very predictable motion

IQ Tour Review By Tony Reynaud

Lane Conditions: Many Typical Conditions: Variety of Shots: House, Stockholm,Dick Webber Type of Lane: All Synthetic Weight of bowling ball: 15 Surface of bowling ball: Factory/Box What grit was the surface of the ball? 4000 Likes: Very predictable motion going down the lane Dislikes: Other bowlers can use it also! My layout: 65 x 4 1/4" x 35 My PAP: 4 3/4" over 1 5/8 up The IQ Tour is an incredible bowling ball. I have used this ball on a variety of conditions, low scoring as well as high scoring. The IQ Tour gets through the front with ease, then reads the mid lane, and then continues through the back in a motion that is very smooth and predictable, yet very powerful. This is a combination that really fits my bowling style well. I feel it is very important for any serious bowler to have a ball in their ball with a very predictable motion like the IQ Tour. It is a lot easier to read lane conditions as well as the transition when you ball isn't doing tricks as it goes down the lane. I think bowlers tend to make more quality shots when they are lined up. The IQ Tour adds up to more consistency and higher scores. In closing I had a lot of tournament success with the IQ Tour on a variety of different shots. The ball reacted great in tournaments on a house pattern, modified house pattern, Dick Webber, as well as Stockholm. The angle I played was out as far as 2-3 and as deep as 17. The ball performed equally great on all these conditions at a variety of angles. The IQ Tour is the first ball out of my bag in every tournament!

Attractive, Flawless Surface

strong mid lane ball, smooth backend

dull strong midlane smooth backend 3000 grit w/polish more length still strong midlane and backend improvement

IQ Tour Edition

Lane Conditions: Medium-Heavy Oil Typical Conditions: Variety of Shots Type of Lane: All Synthetic Weight of bowling ball: 15 Surface of bowling ball: Factory/Box What grit was the surface of the ball? 4000 Likes: Midlane read and strong change of direction off the spot. Dislikes: None so far. My layout: 65 x 4 1/8" x 30 My PAP: 5 7/8" over 1/8" The IQ Tour edition combines the C3-Centripetal Control Core with the R2S cover finished with 4000 abralon. I have used this ball primarily on a 40' heavy oil house shot so far, aside from a couple of games this past weekend when I needed something to step down from the IQ to in order to clear the front of the lane a little better but still handle the volume of oil in the midlane. This ball handled both just fine. What I saw this ball do on the house shot prior to shooting a demo video was insane. The ball literally struck from everywhere on the lane. One shot that I completely threw out the window recovered and struck. This ball will without a doubt help most bowlers open up the pocket. Storm says "Since we built the IQ Tour Edition to be the foundation of your arsenal, you can be confident in the fact that this ball will be consistent across a variety of lane conditions." I see no evidence to contradict this statement. I see the IQ and IQ Tour being a great 1-2 combination in anyone's bag. The IQ Tour when a sharper reaction is needed off the spot and the IQ when you need an earlier read and smoother backend reaction. Storm Bowling Products enjoyed much success on the PBA tour this past season and that doesn't seem to be changing with Rhino Page winning in the South Region on June 17th with the IQ Tour Edition. http://www.stormbowling.com/news/2012/06/3740 For more information on the IQ Tour Edition, visit the following page: http://www.stormbowling.com/products/balls/iqtouredition

will the weight of the ball change the performance of the ball, say from 15 to a 14lbs

Hello! Yes, the weight does affect the performance. Lower weight generally means you will get less pin carry. However, choosing a weight that's comfortable for you is very important to make sure you will be able to control the ball and that you will avoid injury.

can i return the ball and get a 15 lb ball, if i dont open the box

Hello! Here is a link to our exchange policy: https://www.bowling.com/service/returns/#exchange

Is the iq tour and iq 30: a very similar ball

Hi. The Storm IQ is a solid coverstock and the Storm IQ 30 is a pearl coverstock. So they are gong to react differently.

RG is the abbreviation for Radius of Gyration. This is specifically to determine the overall effect that the weight block can have on the performance of the ball. The lower RG numbers are then the more the mass is toward the center of the ball and the higher the RG numbers are the more the mass is toward the cover of the ball. Low RG revs up quicker and High RG revs up later.

Is the IQ close to the virtual gravity

Hello! The Storm Virtual Gravity will be a more aggressive ball than the Storm IQ.

Does the 12lb is tour edition work as well as 13 lb

The 12lb ball will have a modified weight block which will increase the RG slightly, giving the ball a little more length compared to the 13lb.

I was curious if the iq tour works well for low rev players. I mainly bowl on old wood lanes. I guess I'm worried about traction on fresh oil

Yes, this would be a good ball for that.

I roll the ball about 14.5. Pin down be good choice , I like arch

Hello! You can request for this information under the weight selection tab in the blue box that says "click to request pin or top weight".

Does 13 pound have same core as 14 pound?

The 13lb ball will have a generic core.

what is pin/top weight when ordering a ball

Pin Placement can be Out or In. A drilling term that is relative to a bowler's track designed purposely for creating more ball dynamics. A Pin-in ball (when the pin is located within two inches of the Center of Gravity) is excellent choice for control and less hook; a Pin-out ball usually can be made to hook more and flip more dramatically than pin-in balls; they often give the driller more options. And the Top Weight is for drilling of a ball so that there is more weight above the label than there is below; it is considered a positive weight.

Is this ball like the rotogrip idol?

The IQ Tour will be more aggressive than the Roto Grip Idol, for it will have a 4000 grit finish whereas the Idol only has a 2000 grit finish.

Would this IQ ball help my Bowlind avg bowler

The Storm IQ Tour would be a great upper-mid performance ball for medium-heavy oil lanes!

If I am bowling on heavy oil lanes should I take the shine off the ball so that it will hook more.

Yes, if you wanted to dull the cover down to a lower grit finish that will help the ball grip more to work in heavier oil. It will also make the ball ready a little earlier on the lanes so you may have to adjust for ball starting to hook earlier.

Is this ball good for short patterns?

This ball would not be ideal for shorter patterns. The ball is rated for medium to heavy oil conditions and the 4000 grit finish would possibly grip a little too early on short patterns. You may prefer to go with a ball that has a pearl coverstock and/or polished finish out of the box to help get down the lane better on shorter oil.

How does this ball compare to the Storm IQ Nano Pearl?

They are very close in comparison. While the IQ Nano Pearl has a Pearl coverstock which gives it more length, it also has a duller finish than the IQ Tour so it evens the reaction back out some. But I would still say that the IQ Tour reads a little earlier and smoother on the lane than the IQ Nano Pearl which goes just slightly longer.

Is this still available. I have scene it on here forever. Been wanting one ,but I figure it’s discontinued…?

We do still have this ball in stock and available in most weights.

I have the Nova, DV8 collision and The DV8 DG Verge. Would this ball fit in there? Or would a ball a little stronger like the phaze 2 be better?

This ball is going to be very similar to the DV8 DG Verge. It has similar strength but the IQ Tour will have a little more length than the Verge to give it a little more backend hook. Since this fits so closely to the Verge you may prefer the Phaze II which is stronger than the Verge but not quite as strong as the Nova or Collision.

Would this ball be a good step down from the phaze 2

Hi Mike, the Storm IQ Tour would react later on the lanes and have less hook potential than the Storm Phaze II.

Will any of the IQ's work with a 13mph bowler?

There are a lot of factors to still consider which may make one IQ a better fit than another. Lane conditions and rev rate would also help to determine which IQ would be best for you.

Will this ball be good for someone who throws 13mph

This ball can be used by just about any bowler. If you are a rev dominant player then this ball may work better in heavier oil. If you are a speed dominant player then this would work better for you in medium conditions. If your rev rate matches your speed pretty well then this ball should work as advertised for medium to heavy conditions.

Can you explain why there is different iq tour solid colors.Some of them have a brighter blue

There are a few different factors that could cause one to look a little brighter than another. First, there are going to be just varying degrees of the color when Storm is pouring and mixing the color and making the ball. They should be pretty close however so I could not say that is a big factor. Another factor could be the finish of the ball. Out of the box the ball comes with a 4000 grit finish. If anyone adds polish to the ball it could make the ball look a different shade of blue than if someone sanded the ball to a duller finish so there could be differences depending on the surface. In that same situation a ball that has been used for a while will tend to get darker over time due to the lane oil build up in the cover so that could also make some look darker than others. Lastly, Storm has found that some bowling balls will have phasing where the color looks lighter if the ball is maybe not used for a while or if the ball changes temperature maybe from being in your air conditioned house to a car or from your car to the air conditioned lanes. Sometime this can effect the color of the ball. I hope this helps explain how there may be different colors for the same ball.

Storm iq tour ruby bowling ball review.

storm iq tour bowling ball videos

Welcome back to another Modern Bowling Ball Review! We have our ball tester Anthony showcasing the Storm IQ Tour Ruby!

Storm IQ Tour Ruby Bowling Ball

In many cultures, ruby is considered the traditional gift for a 40th wedding anniversary. Since Storm began manufacturing bowling balls in 1991, we know that your relationship with us hasn’t hit the four-decade mark yet, but that’s okay. You’ve been good, so we’re going to give you your ruby now. With that, we’re proud to present your next love in bowling, the !Q Tour Ruby.

Powering the !Q Tour Ruby is the proven C3 Centripetal Control Core that has made the !Q Tour line the industry’s go-to option for predictable, benchmark reaction. In the !Q Tour Ruby, the C3 Core will provide a combination of power and forgiveness that simply can’t be matched. This will allow you to maintain control of the pocket at all times without sacrificing the hooking motion and hitting power needed to put up big scores and stay ahead of the competition.

The original !Q Tour became famous with R2S, and the !Q Tour Ruby will be no exception. The !Q Tour Ruby will feature R2S Pearl and will come in a 1500-grit polished box finish that will make the one-color ruby pearl cover simply shine. But good looks are just the window dressing. On the lanes, R2S Pearl provides the highest coefficient of dry lane friction of any coverstock we have to offer. That allows the !Q Tour Ruby to easily glide through the front of the lane on most conditions before charging back to the pocket with all the carrying power you’re ever going to need.

Storm IQ Tour Emerald Bowling Ball Features :

A pearlized IQ Tour is back, and this time it features a beautiful emerald green color scheme. The IQ Tour Emerald is a remake of the extremely popular gold-colored IQ Tour Pearl, with the only difference being the color. It uses the same C3 Centripetal Control Core as the original gold ball, along with one of the most successful coverstocks in bowling history, R2S Pearl. The box finish is the standard 1500 grit with polish, helping to provide length and a strong angle at the friction. This ball provides its length without a giant, sharp change of direction. Instead, it gives plenty of continuation on the back end and through the pin deck.

The premise is wickedly simple: create a ball that’s worthy of your time, energy, and dollars. It’s no mystery that the !Q has become a staple in Storm’s lineup of high performance bowling balls. Favored by bowlers of all levels all over the globe, anyone and everyone can benefit from the benchmark reaction the !Q series is able to provide.

Workable and forgiving, the C3 Centripetal Control Core is a design that revs up quickly, providing a smoother change of direction downlane. This shape is beneficial for players requiring control at the breakpoint. Used only in the !Q Tour series of balls, this core is precisely designed and manufactured using proprietary technology.

R2S is synonymous with some of the most successful balls in recent history like the Hy-Road , Frantic, and the IQ Tour . It is renowned for clearing the front part of the lane with an unprecedented movement on the backend. The consistency of this shell through the heads is something to be marveled at.
