The Longest Selling Bowling Balls From Each Brand That Are Still In Production in 2023
These bowling balls have been out for years but bowlers continue to buy them
Bowling Balls With The Longest Longevity Over The Last Few Years
A lot of new balls come out every month, so we wanted to do a run down of the balls that have been a staple in the lines and bowlers keep replacing them in their bags when they get old and used up. The following list is random and in no particular order.
Also please remember choosing the best bowling ball can depend on a variety of factors, including your skill level, playing style, lane conditions, and personal preferences. However, here are some popular options to consider.
The Storm Hy-Road Bowling Ball
The Storm Hy-Road is a popular bowling ball among bowlers of all skill levels. It’s known for its versatility and ability to perform well on a variety of lane conditions. The ball features a hybrid coverstock, which combines solid and pearl materials for a balanced reaction on the lanes. It also has a medium RG (radius of gyration) and medium differential, which helps the ball transition smoothly through the lane and maintain its energy for a strong backend reaction.
The Hy-Road’s unique core design, called the Inverted Fe² Technology, helps create a lower center of gravity, which helps the ball rev up more easily and provides a smoother, more predictable motion.
Overall, the Storm Hy-Road is a versatile and reliable bowling ball that can help you improve your game and achieve better results on the lanes.

Storm Phaze 2 Bowling Ball
“Phaze 2 is amazing, one of the strongest and most versatile balls I have ever thrown.” – Mike LeViner – BowlersMart Charlotte
The new Phaze II features both innovative core and coverstock technology, proving again that Storm is the leader in bowling innovation. Advancements in the core shape are easily seen with the naked eye. This fast-revving shape, the aptly-named, supercharged Velocity Core helps you crush pin after pin as it produces more ball motion than any other shape in our Master Line. It smooths out the backend reaction without over-reacting and avoids creating an undesirable last-second movement.
TX-16 (Traction-X 2016) is what emerges from countless hours in R&D to develop the finest coverstocks on the planet. This solid reactive blend leaves an incredible footprint on the lane. The marriage between the core and the cover produces the strongest motion of any symmetrical Storm ball to date.
