COMMENTS

We drilled this ball last night right before league.  70x4x35 is the drilling that was used.  For me, this is a shorter pin so the ball would just make a strong motion down lane and through the pins and we got just that.  With this drilling, the ball made it through the fronts with ease and made a smooth, but strong, downlane movement and continued through the pins.  My first game was 268 with the front 7, then in game 2 I got a little slow and the ball checked a little early for 297....then it went down hill.  Missed a 10 pin and then lost all carry for 203.  768 off the press is still impressive.  The thing that I like most about this ball is the fact that i don't feel like I have to do anything to the ball to make it work.  As long as I got the ball to the right part of the lane, the ball did all the work.

Guru Mighty 
Layout:::: 50 X 5 X 40   No P3 Hole
 Box Surface
Rev Rate ::: 350
Ball speed:::: 16 mph
Condition:::::41 ft.  House shot

I was very impressed when the Guru was released and drilled one up.  I didn't use the P3 hole in the original Guru and found it to be very strong.  One of the strongest balls . 
Then comes the Guru Mighty.   All I can say is Holy Cow !  I am impressed with the  eae it gets down lane.  For me it is about 2  1/2 feet longer than my Guru  with a sharper  break than the Guru.  It continues through the pins and the carry is excellent. I started targeting 17 to 10 and found on THS to be strong  and struggled to hold pocket.  I moved  in to 22 to 10 and the ball held pocket .  You definately can keep migrating left with this ball.
The Guru Mighty seems to be a very versatile ball and is a very good compliment to the Guru Original.  Mo and Phil did another fantastic job with this ball

The Guru Mighty is the perfect compliment to the original Guru.  The Mighty allows me to play a similar line to the original Guru with a couple feet of added length and more recovery downlane.  As soon as the lanes begin to transition and I am forced too deep with the original Guru, I am able to switch to the Guru Mighty and play the same part of the lane without losing carry.  These two balls make an excellent one two punch for heavier lane conditions.  The Guru and Guru Mighty continue to push the envelope of what is possible with modern technology.  The only negative I have found is that I don't want to use anything else.

Guru Mighty
This ball is Radical!     
My Mighty has a Double Thumb layout. It goes longer and hooks more on the backend. Than the black guru. I try this ball out on the Kegel Highway to hell bowling pattern. This ball rolled great on this pattern. I also try it out on a 46 foot pattern. It went a little too far down lane. It would recover enough to hit the pocket. But the carry wasn’t great. But I tried my black guru on this 46 foot pattern. And it had no problem carrying the pins. I think the Mighty Guru and the Black Guru are a great match together.         Another great ball from Radical bowling Technologies. #WowThatsRadical!

Here is the new addition to the Guru line, the Guru Mighty.  This ball uses the core of the original Guru but the coverstock has an additive in it to have more lenght.

On the lanes, I play the Mighty the same line and aim the same spot as the original.  The difference is in the way the ball rolls.  The Mighty clears the heads easely, is 3 feet longer and has a sharper break point.  This is the perfect complement of the original.

The bok finish is 4000 siaar.  Like all the other Radical covers, the surface  can easely be modified.  For a player with higher speed,  the surface can be sanded with a 1000 or even with a 500 without loosing carry.

To conclude,  if you liked the Guru, you'll love the Mighty because it's the perfect complement to the original Guru

Let me introduce the next great ball from Radical Bowling. The Guru Mighty. The Guru Mighty is a great ball that compliments the original Guru which is my favorite ball that I have had in my bag. The Original Guru was a ball that hook so much that I didn’t know that I could use a lot, but I was totally wrong. The Original was so great for me that I had to drill up its new sibiling in the line the Guru Mighty. The Guru Mighty was drilled Pin above my bridge compare to the pin drilled out in my ring finger for my Original Guru.  The Mighty gets a little bit longer which was its attention when developing this ball compare to the Original and keep the same amount of back end potential from the Original. I have been throwing this ball so much the last week since I can play straighter with this from the start and when it gets to the point I need to change balls I can switch to my Gold Rhino Pro by Brunswick. The Mighty is a great ball that if you are looking for some more length and some hook on the back that none of your other equipment has given you. If you haven’t tried Radical Bowling Balls before you need to get your hands on this one it will be the start to changing to a Radical Head and believing on this great brand. #TeamRadical.

Bowler Style:
   Rev Rate: 280-300rpm
   Speed: 16 mph
   PAP: 5' right x 1/2" up
Layout
   65 x 4" x 30
   x-hole: N/A
   Surface: 4000
Comments:
   This ball is a perfect compliment to the original Guru. The original one is strong over all, started up early and smooth transition, but still strong through the pins. The Guru Mighty is the same thing except the ball starts its move 15 feet later in turn giving the ball a smooth transition and strong back of the lane motion. Not necessarily backend, this is not a skid and U-turn at the end of the pattern kind of ball.
   I have thrown this ball in an old wooden house where the heads are shot and it's narrow oil. Normally here I have to stay with non aggressive covers because over/under will haunt me. When I used the Guru Mighty it allowed me to move in and with the hybrid cover it pushed past the bad heads and the farther right I threw the ball the more I got to watch some serious hook and pin action beyond belief.
   This ball is also a great ball for sport shots. Guru Mighty features a hybrid core, so it plays for a long period of time before you will have to switch to something else.

Put a 35 x 5 x 70 layout on my Mighty. Pin under. This ball has great motion and is very predictable. I love this ball and plan on drilling up another with a pin up. This has become my go to ball.

The Radical Guru Mighty is by far my favorite ball in my bag right now!!!  It is an excellent compliment to the original Guru and provides amazing length for such a strong ball.  I can't wait to start mapping out a new one of each, specifically to work off each other and attack the patters at Nationals this year!  With the higher volume in the fronts, I think these will be great options.

This hybrid cover stock is the perfect compliment to the original Guru.  I drilled my Might Guru 45 x 4 x 30, a very aggressive drilling, as I wanted the ball to respond much quicker, and be a very predictable roll.  I’ve used this ball on a variety of conditions, and even with the shorter drilling, I’ve found this ball has amazing recovery.  It gives me a lot of room to miss right and still recover.  If I miss in it skids in the oil, and then when it clears the pattern, it responds very quickly allowing me a lot of forgiveness on the lane.  I even found it to be a great ball on wet/dry conditions.  I’m able to stay right, play very firm, and not have to deal with the overreaction when it hits the dry.  Do to its amazing cover core combination, this ball gets down the lane and responds effectively creating a strong hooking motion.
  If I were going to drill another one of these, I would go with a longer pin drilling.  I would do a 75 x 5 x 40.  I think this will really highlight the true characteristics of the ball.  You will see great length and very strong backend reaction for maximum carry.
  I think this ball is amazing, and its in my bag at every tournament I bowl in.

Drilled 40 x 5 ¼ x 75 – Weight hole in lower P4
The first week out of the box with the Mighty resulted in a 299/814 series and a new found appreciation in the advertisement about making the Might longer and stronger than the original Guru.  The cover stock is very responsive and easy to maintain.  Highly recommend this ball as a suitable 1st ball out of bag component.

 This is my second Mighty. I drilled it for nationals and for sport shots to control the mid lane and backend. The ball rolls great and it is definitely for tougher patterns. If you are bowling on sport patterns you need one of these
