Wolverine Review
« on: December 27, 2021, 04:30:02 PM »
The 900 Global Wolverine is incredibly clean and ridiculously sharp down the lane. The modified badger core and pearl S70 cover is one of the easiest balls to get down the lane I have thrown in a while. On a semi broken down house shot, it got back from literally everywhere. It was truly "stand left, throw right", and watch the pins fall. It was every bit as clean as the White Hot Badger was, but sharper down the lane for me. It was a good step down from the Trend 2 when I had to clear the front and mids just a little more. Mine is drilled 4.75x50. This is THE ball when you need to get through the dry and still create some angle down the lane, it does not disappoint.

WOW.. The Wolverine has a serious return on the investment so far. Off the pattern, it looks like a little bowling gnome is standing 4 feet before the rack and the ball goes HARD and STRONG thru the pins. Usually 1 inch pin drillings for me read early, as designed and get super smooth. Well, I was quite surprised by the strong reaction the ball had in the back end. It was not over / under at all during the course of practice and then league. Had 2 other lefties on the pair with me and I just adjusted to the left of where they were playing, to stay clean and still keep striking without losing any carry. So IMPRESSED by the ball, several bowlers ordered and bought Wolverines that night. My one teammate went and drove over 1 1/2 hours to a pro shop that had one in stock the very next day. The Wolverine to me reminds me of the Hyroad Pearl I had a few years ago with a just a tick longer skid, but a stronger overall reaction in the back end. The Wolverine is NOT a SHEEP... Its a KILLER of racks!!!

My review, its a great ball indeed, I love the way it rolls! After throwing the ball a little, the back end was a little to sharp for me. So I hit the ball with a 3000 pad and I liked it a lot better. All depends on where you play and how they take care of the back ends. I'm a right hander...and right out of the box on fresh clean back ends, yeah, for me...it just snapped a little to much. ok if you got it a little right, but if you tugged it, yeah through the nose all the time. Now after I hit it with a 3000 pad, got a little lane shine on it, I really like it. So if the Reality, then the Altered Reality are a bit to much. The Zen Master and the Zen are a little to much, Grab this Wolverine and it rolls very very nice!
