Escape from normal ball reactions with the AMF Escape bowling ball.

Coverstock: F74 (F10 least aggressive-F90 most aggressive)
Core: Composite Flow Technology "CFT"

Drilled my Escape Pin above ring finger with cg kicked out 2" with extra hole. The F74 core delivers the CFT core energy to the lane which gives the best entry angle needed to achieve that perfect game. I use this ball when I have alot of oil downlane because it reads the midlane very well and stands up and gets into strong backend motion with alot of continuation. Seem to have alot more angularity to this ball compared to the more of the arcing motion most AMF products that I have. Great for transition when the lane gets tight downlane.

Layout: 55 x 5 x 40
Ball Speed: 16.5
PAP: 4 1/8 R, 13/16 Up
Surface: OOB
Patterns: Variable

The AMF Escape is a piece that I have been waiting on for a while now. When the Protocol and Network originally came out I figured a hybrid cover would be a for sure release. Well it took a little bit but the hybrid version is now here. The CFT core has a unique roll going down lane. For me it provides a lot of midlane read and a continuous motion going through the pins. On the THS I see usually, there was not enough oil to do the Escape justice. I could see it roll out and lose energy down lane leaving corner pins. On a 44 foot Modified Shark pattern this one really shines. The Escape gave me a great read, and was very continuous going through the pins. If you are looking for something with good midlane read with a strong, controlled and continuous motion through the pins on longer/high volume patterns give this one a look.

Escape
Coverstock F74 Hybrid

 Color Blue & Cobalt Pearl / Black
 Finish 4,000 Grit
 Differential 2.48 0.051 Int. Diff .030
 Core Asymmetrical

   The Escape which features AMF's most aggressive core with a nice aggressive Hybrid cover is its latest release.  The Escape has a great look too with its nice blue color and a nice sharp ball motion.  I drilled my escape with a 6 X 3 X 4 layout which produces great length to even out this aggressive ball motion the Escape has in the front part of the lane.  This helps store energy in the mid lane with this high reving core and continues with a nice strong back end motion through the pins. The cover is exceptional and this reminds me of the 900 Global Respect which was one of my early favorites in the beginning throwing the 900 Global line. AMF 300 has a real nice line up so why not try this ball so you can get your fellow league or tournament bowlers to turn their heads when you throw the Escape down the lanes.....

COMMENTS

Likes:Layout 60 x 5 1/2 x 45 ; Surface 4000; ball speed 15.5 mph; pap 5 11/16 x 5/16up.  AMF has came out with a great new heavy to medium oil asymmetric ball named "ESCAPE". This ball really works well on the fresh patterns, it blends real well coming off the back of the pattern. I had great continuation entering the pins using it on fresh house shot and fresh usbc pattern. I think if you are looking for a good asymmetric ball for some of those flatter tournament patterns, this is a definite must have for your bag. You can drill it strong on house patterns and get inside the oil line also and just let 'er rip! AMF has done a very good job with pairing this core to the hybrid cover to give them a ball in the line that is a step above the Unreal in overall hook. Go get one today, you wont be disappointed.

AMF Escape! Enter a new dimension!!

Coverstock: F74 Hybrid
Core: CFT Asymmetric
Finish: 4000 grit NEAT "T"
RG: 2.48
Diff: .051
Mid Diff: .030
Skid/flip layout
Ball speed: 16/17 mph
Cranker

The AMF Escape resembles the original 900 Global Network (utilizing the same core with the XPT74 pearl cover). The core was also used in the Protocol with an S70 cover. The Escape gives a great ball motion the AMF line-up has been missing. If the midlane read is too early, feel free to throw some polish on for later movement. The color makes this ball look amazing rolling down the lane!!

"The Escape was designed to provide a strong midlane read and continuation down lane. To do this, the designers wrapped the Continuous Flow Technologyâ„¢ core CFT in an F74 hybrid shell. They then finished the shell off with the NEAT "T" 4,000 grit finish, providing amble strength for heavy to medium heavy conditions. The Escape will handle higher volumes of oil than the Unrealâ„¢ and provide more midlane motion than the Pureâ„¢."

AMF Escape
#15.1
3" pin
4.0 oz top

Rt. hand
14-15 mph
PAP 4 9/16 1/4 over

Drilling: 60x4.5"x60
Volume 38-41ft
THS, Kegel Challenge Series

The AMF Escape, a cool blue pearl hybrid asymmetrical ball from 900 Global gives a powerful look on the lanes.  The hybrid cover gives me a strong midlane a hard arc backend.  Very powerful ball for heavier conditions.  Impressive look on fresh.  This ball wants to hook.  Extremely continuous hook throughout the lane for me at the T or 4000 finish.  Drilled it aggressive, 60x4.5"x60 and it does not disappoint on oil.  Was able to bump in and swing it as they broke down but it has its limits for my softer speed meaning I need to put it away once the pattern blew up!  Overall a really strong ball from AMF and a must have on the fresh or tighter looks.
