Title: Badger Claw
Post by: amyers2002 on December 20, 2018, 08:26:33 AM
Purchased one last night. Decided to listen to Doom all I can say is it appears to be a good choice. I was highly hesitant to buy anything new. My last purchase was one of the Brunswick black Quantum. It didn't go well for me at all. I'm a little slower speed than your average bowler and the Quantum box surface hooked too much on the back end added surface and wanted to roll out for me. I seen none of this with the Badger Claw I used it all three games and no signs of roll out. It could handle the oil inside just fine for me and offered enough come back it could still get to the pocket on outside misses.


This isn't a staffer review if you miss badly it won't get where you want not every ball was a strike but for a guy that doesn't even understand those posts of shot 750 with a new ball out of the box!! I had a real successful series with it last night and enjoyed throwing it last night. it usually takes me a few weeks to adjust to a new ball


Big shout out to Mr. Doom who helped me decide on the Claw it was good advice. Thank you and Merry Christmas

Well, Merry Christmas to you as well, and awesome set with the Claw!

You know, a couple of staffers and I were speaking about the quality of the Tour Preferred line, and it's nearing Break legendary status. They're that good. The Honey Badgers stand on their own, and the Badgers roll like a Hyroad and Hyroad Pearl. You CANNOT get better bang for your buck than the Tour Preferred line.

Well, except for the Ops line. But I'm biased about that line. :)

Personally, if you want a smoother motion, go 45*4.5*65. The pin down ones I've seen are amazing looking

I punched my HB with my stronger all purpose layout--of my 4 layouts I use.

It's amazing!

Do think the strength of the claw compares to something like the winner solid or a venom shock.

In my opinion, the Claw is a step up in the oil handling capability. More on the back than the Shock. The OG Badger is more Shock/Hyroadish

Unfortunately I haven't tried the Claw, but the Badger for me is a tad smoother than the Venom Shock. I really, really like it with a 2000 finish.

Claw isn't discoed. If you look in the drop-down menus, it's there. Don't even get me started on WordPress lol
