Drive them to a Frenzy!

The New Monster Frenzy comes to us from Brunswick with the combination of some current technology to make us another great ball that bowlers should have!

The N-Control Reactive coverstock has been combined with the "Door Knob" core used in the "Smash/R" and "Swamp Monster". This new combination gives us a ball that gets threw the heads without any loss of energy saving it for a great backend explosion to the pocket! We drilled our test ball with a (4X4) drilling pattern and this provided us with great length and recovery on the typical house condition. We could swing this ball and have it turn back strong and destroy the rack. Brunswicks new dense core technology has raised their performance level tremendously this past season.

We really enjoyed the "Monster Scream/R" as one of our favorite league condition balls. But now we are going to replace that one with this new "Frenzy"

This ball is perfect for those bowlers who have slower ball speeds and need help on those Wet/Dry lane conditions! Those of you who "Crank" the ball will find a ball that will get down the lane and turn back strong! What many bowlers call going "Coast to Coast"!

We believe this to be the best "Overall" Monster to date and recommend that every bowler RUN to their local proshops and get this one today! This will be a ball that will fit right in the "Middle" of most bowlers arsenals.

Keep the drilling pattern simple and you will find a very adaptable ball!

We highly recommend this ball to all bowlers everywhere!

This ball has a pin out 2-3 and I forget the topweight. I drilled this ball with my low track rev leverage drilling with the cg kicked out 45 degrees and a weighthole off the axis. The ball reads the lanes great but does not over-read the lanes. It gets great length even with it's early roll. Playing straight with too much speed sometimes leads to 10 pins on most conditions. The best part about this ball is that it can handle dry backends without the over/under reaction. The ball is similar to my polished SmashR but only quite a bit weaker. The Frenzy pretty much maintains the same reaction as the SmashR. This is another great ball from Brunswick.

Threw the new frenzy today and love it on Sport conditions, 41 feet, flat pattern with the midlanes going south in the 2nd game. I'm somewhat of a power player and love this ball, can go up the lane with a soft hand or get inside with a heavy hand and it turns the corner. I might hit the surface some to tame it down some but not sure yet, need to throw it more to get a better read on the lanes where the midlane stays longer then 14 frames before it fries. I'm the only one playing either deep inside or up the twig but yet it still goes away fast. I'm not throwing particle's either as they just haven't put enough oil out that warrents pulling anything particle out. I'm still getting used to the roll as I'm not used to throwing something with this much perl color. If this ball is any judge, I just may move back to the big B and away from columbia as I just haven't been impressed with anything they have put out since the original Black Chaos.


Ball specs: 15lb, pin 5 1/2 from Axis with a x-tra hole 1 1/2 inches past axis.
The pin is about 1 inch above my ring finger.

My specs: High track with good forward roll. med speed.

Thanks for reading my review.

Well what can you say about a Ball that you almost shoot 800 out of the box with for the 1st three games on the ball. Nothing but praise, but I did not shoot the 800, but gave it a close call shooting 267-245-258 for a 770 series.

This polished reactive from Brunswick features the N Control polished reactive cover stock that Brunswick notes as their Skid/Snap surface. To complement the cover stock Brunswick put the Smash/r/Swamp Monster core in it. This helps the ball “Rev” quicker but the surface still allows for the good length in oil. This ball does that very well.

I drilled the frenzy pin below the fingers 3 3/8 X strong mass bias position with a weight hole 2” past my axis. I was hoping with this drilling to get a little earlier breakpoint and still use it on medium to oily lanes. The center I bowl at is Wood Lanes with medium oil and freshly cleaned back ends. It worked.

The roll pattern or the way it revs is earlier but without the early hook, gets through the heads very clean with a strong sweeping hook on the back ends. If I laid this ball out with a high Rg Pin drilling I think it would have gave me to much skid/snap from the ball. I would only go with a high Rg Pin drilling on this ball with someone that has an end over end roll pattern or very little axis tilt, otherwise to make it more predictable set it up strong to burn off a little energy early so it kind of quits a touch on the back ends, or put a weight hole in it to take it to negative.  

If you can tame the slight under/over reaction on this ball through proper drillings this ball can give you the reaction and hit of any $200.00 plus priced ball. In closing I have never had a ball that gave me such impressive reaction out of the box and scored as well as this one. Brunswick clearly has worked well with Bayer in the past years to produce some of the best cover stocks out there. I know you will be happy with the frenzy and don’t let the low price fool you on this high performance ball. Best of luck.

THE MONSTER FRENZY IS A GREAT BALL BUT ONLY IF DRILLED A CERTAIN WAY,
ATLEAST IN MY CASE.
I HAVE ONE DRILLED WITH THE PIN AT 1200 AND CG AROUND 3 AND RIGHT ON THE MIDLINE WITH NO WEIGHT HOLE.
THIS BALL WORKS GREAT WHEN THE LANES ARE FRESH AND THE BACK ENDS ARE FLYING IF YOU NEED A SKID SNAP BALL.
ONCE YOU GET CARRY DOWN WITH THIS BALL WITH A SEMI ROLLER ( BALL TRACK COMES 1 INCH OUT FROM THE FINGERS INTO THE THUMB)THE BALL GOES VERY STRAIGHT AND JSUT DOESNT TURN THE CORNER UNLESS YOU PLAY OUTSIDE AND WATCH YOUR SPEED.
OVERALL THIS BALL REACTS ALOT LIKE THE COMMAND ZONE, BUT VERY SPEED SENSITIVE AS WELL AS DRILL SENSITIVE IF YOU THROW THE BALL TOO HARD.
I CURRENTLY THROW THE BALL BETWEEN 19 AND 24 MILES PER HOUR FOR STRIKE BALL AND SLOW SPARE BALL.

I had 2 frenzy's until one got stolen but the one that's left is driled 6 1/2 x 3 with the x-hole 1 inch past my axis. this ball goes dead straight and then makes a very small arc to the pocket. This is on a 38ft sport condition pattern with light oil on the middle and outside is out of bounds. No matter how hard I rev it up, this ball just doesn't flip at all and I know it's the drilling that's holding it back. I've tried some light surface on it, :IE 1500 and 1200 grit but that didn't do much for it at all. This is the first time that I've thrown a pin past 5 1/4 inches as the guy that drilled the ball screwed up the layout that I had put on it. Figured I'd try it first before I complained. The ball does a real good job when it find's even a small piece of the pocket though as long as I have decent grip preasure.

I'm hoping this will work better on a shorter condition and cleaner backends.

Just got this one, at 15 lbs., and a 2 3/4 inch pin.  Drilled it like my SmashR and Swamp Monster because those have worked so well for me, which is 1E on Brunswick's chart, (basically a very strong hooking layout, if you're not familiar, pin next to the ring finger, and CG below the pin, almost directly.)  This ball is giving me exactly what I expected it to:  More length than the SmashR, and a very strong backend.  The Frenzy came back from a couple of shots I didn't think it would have the strength to do so on.  Not as strong as the SmashR, but hooks a bit more than the Fuze Igniter.  Carried very well on a house shot on Brunswick synthetics.  Found the most success, playing up the outside of the lane, around 7 board or so, and just letting it roll into the pocket, and explode.  Also could swing it to the dry, but had to lower ball speed to get it back on this shot.  All in all, another great release from Brunswick, just as good as the others in the Monster series in my opinion, and can't wait to get this one in tournaments.
