Description: Get Twisted! The Twisted Fury expands and upgrades the Fury line by introducing both a new core and new coverstock to the market. The Twisted Fury is comprised of an asymmetric version of the Torsionâ„¢Core and the EnMotionâ„¢ Reactive coverstock.
Coverstock: The Twisted Fury introduces EnMotion Reactive coverstock. More aggressive in the mid-lane and back-end than High Octane, EnMotion Reactive delivers tremendous mid-lane recovery and forgiveness combined with plenty of back-end ball reaction
Core: Brunswick has added a new twist to the Torsion core concept by producing an Asymmetric version for the Twisted Fury. The symmetric version of the Torsion core used in the original Fury was based on triangular geometry. The Asymmetric version is based on a six-sided polygon. The inner core of a 16-pound Twisted Fury weighs in at 6.36 pounds, resulting in a medium RG that helps push the aggressive EnMotion coverstock down the lane. Brunswick has put a new twist on core design so you can twist it up better on the lanes.

Brunswick's East Coast Product Specialist, Dennis Reale, was kind enough to send me one of the first Twisted Fury's to come off the line. All I can say is WOW!!!!! I am impressed!!!!!
First the stats. My axis is 5 1/2" over and 5/8" up. I guess I would be considered now a power tweener (darned old age
) . I drilled the Twisted with the primary pin at 5" from my axis and the psa at 55 degrees in relationship to my axis.The Twisted gets through the fronts with ease and makes a very strong, continuous arc to the pocket. Sounds pretty standard for a Brunswick ball. But now comes the difference.
I have used this ball on a few different conditions now, and what really impresses me is the Twisted's ability to cut through carrydown.
I have used the Twisted up against other Brunswick produced balls and some other competitor's equipment. The Twisted retains it's hitting power when all other balls tend to back-off downlane when carrydown is present. I won't mention it's name, but one of the more popular asymmetric pearlized balls would "wiggle" downlane and not get through the pins very well (flat 10's all day long). But the Twisted really seems to stay "stuck" to the lane better and get through the pins better than any ball I have thrown it up against.
With the introduction of the Twisted Fury, it looks as though Brunswick has started to really get it's act together at the new facility.

4 3/4" PIN to PAP, Pin below fingers, 55 degree MB. OOB finish.
This layout for me wants to roll right away and stand up in the pocket. This enables me to square up and let the cover glide through the front. The response to friction is quick for a strong move to the pocket.
I bowled on a 43' modified FIQ pattern and after a few games of play I was able to use the Twisted. I couldn't use it early with the box finish and long oil, but after some break down I could move deep and use the length for pull and the break down for room right.
Twisted #2
5" PIN to PAP, Pin above fingers, 45 degree MB.
Compared to my 5" Blast Zone 70 degree, the Twisted is an animal! This is the hardest backending Brunswick Assym I have thrown!! With the 45 degree we had to put a hole regardless to bring it back to legal. I threw it before hand to determine where it should go and this ball consistently drove to the 8 through the pins. We put the hole on my PAP and it didn't affect the reaction.
(UPDATE) January 2, 2008
Twisted #3 RICO
Pin in center of grip with the MB at 45 degrees.
Compared to Twisted #1, this layout is 100 times better! Like I mentioned above, #1 stands up to the pocket quickly, and this RICO has a much stronger roll and is continuous through the pins. This ball lets me stay to the right and strike. The break point window is much longer than #1. #3 is OOB finish. This layout matches up perfectly to the ball for me.
I have been experimenting in trying to find a layout/ball combo to stay to the right and still carry the ten. I have found it in this ball with the RICO.

If this ball did not have a "B" label on it you wouldn't know it was a "B" Ball at all. I drilled it 4-1/4" from pap 55Deg. pin 1-1/2" up from the Midline. My first impression of this ball was WOW! I cant believe it is a Brunswick ball. Soooooo clean thru the fronts and mid-lane area then just comes unglued in the backend. The more impressive thing was how it did all that in a very predictable manner. I never got the feeling that it was going to be over/under like most skid/flip balls. Then I turned it over to some of the locals in the house. 3-300's have been shot with it in practice and I have pre sold 5 of them as of now. It is truly an amazing piece of equipment. This ball with either replace something in your bag or will be a ball you do not have and need to put in there.

I'm not a high rev bowler. Not even close. I'm usually around 16 mph and try to play straighter as my first option.
This ball has 9 games on it now, and I'm comfortable recommending it to anyone who wants a ball to clear the heads with EASE and finish hard. It's a little shiny for me to play on wet, except for the extreme outside line where I prefer, anyway. So far, carry has been exceptional.
If I put a decent release (because sometimes I don't) this ball is sure to start reading and finishing with authority. I may try it at 2000 abralon just to see how much more room I have. Brunswick and BTM have both said that "the ball rolls great no matter what finish we put on it."
I will try to remember to update this review if/when I take a little shine off. I have been very happy with other Brunswick asymmetrical core balls and anticipate that this one may be at the top of the list the more I throw it.
On a less serious note, mine has lots of silver with maybe 25% burgundy and 25% black. Some of the guys have said it makes them dizzy watching this one go down the lane... Who says there's no defense in bowling?
UPDATE: Took the cover down to 1000 then back up to 2000 abralon on the advice of Ric Hamlin. The ball still finishes nicely, but gives me more room for error. When I threw it on a lane with some carry-down from open play it was still able to finish, and on fresh league shot with plenty of oil and clean back-ends the ball was still great, just had to make a tiny move left each game
for carry.
UPDATE #2: Applied Bean's Secret Sauce and the ball was the strongest back end move yet. I will probably leave it here as it is a nice compliment to my Pearl Fury and Fury solid. Do NOT hesitate to try this ball!

Last night during league started practice with total inferno. El hooko. Went down to the Fury Pearl. Strong mid and large finish. OK. Take the Twisted out and move 3 left, (left handed but it is what it is). Bam, good kick at the end and much longer. So I’ll use it. Front 8 and then a 7pin. Nothing new. Next game front 12….300. Last game drank beer. 781 with a new ball is a great start. At our place there is usually maybe 3 or 4 300’s a year and very old school. When someone shoots 300 the place goes nuts and it did. New bowlers came up and thanked me cuz they’s never seen anyone do it. Must say it felt great to hear it and to give them the joy of seeing it. And what a year!!!! Hole in one….300….just need an 800 to fill it up !!!!
And yes we do the PBA Experience league and many know the diff and get a kick out of trying to figure out what to do when the house shot isn’t there.
Will be bowling a couple tourns next weekend and see if I can use it. But I’ll use whatever is working. Used it last night cuz I felt like trying it. Lanes may be dry at both places and maybe not. Bowl all over the Northwest and usually do well wherever I go.
Thanks to Ric Hamlin. The colors go down the lane very well. No one got seasick !!!! Is for sure different than any Bruns ball I’ve thrown…………Rolled………Tossed……

Speed: 17-18
RPM: 350-400
Tilt: low-mid
Drilled 5" from PAP above fingers with a 45* PSA.
Only thrown it for a couple of games but all I can say is wow. I have not seen another brunswick ball give the same look on the lanes. It was about 2 boards weaker than my Pearl Fury(4.5" below) and 2 boards stronger than my Smokin Inferno(6" above). It skids through the oil, picks up in the midlane, and snaps off the dry. It reacts to the dry a little more slowly than the Pearl but gives a stronger movement. It will be a great piece for me when the Pearl is too much or I can't get deep with it. It revs up in the midlane giving it the control to destroy a THS, and mine has! I've only been able to average about 225-230 with it so far, hopefully it will pick up the pace!
It will definitely be a go-to ball on patterns between 36-40ft. and should be in everyone's bag.--------------------

I can play the Twisted in almost the same area of the lane as my much more rolly Pearl Fury. However, the roll pattern and break point are enough different that I can expect a difference in carry from the two. Since carry is my main reason for making a ball change, rather than trying to acquire or reacquire the pocket, these two balls should become very good compliments to each other

This Fury was supposed to be a benchmark ball but its a little to weak to call it that. It turned out alright. Very lengthy but kinda smooth on the backend. Good ball. Great control. Good for lighter volume house shots as well as sport shots.

Ball Specs
The ball being drilled was a 3†pin out with 3.00 oz top weight.
Drilling: Pin 4" from PAP and Mb 4" from PAP. Pin Buffer 2" from V.A.L. Pin is above ring finger, 3" above grip midline. Weight Hole on my axis. Factory Rough Buff.
Bowler Information:
Track diameter is 10 1/2.
PAP is measured at 5 1/4 over and 3/8" up.
Average ball speed (foul line to head pin) is 16 mph.
Axis rotation is typically 90 degrees
Initial rev rate is typically 300 rpm, "Tweener"
Lane Condition and Pattern:
Bowlero Lanes, HPL 9000 Panel. Oil Pattern: Fairly Flat condition from edge board to edge board, semi clean backends.
Review:
Great colors in the Ball, so far very well recieved by the customers in my shop. I love the ball for drier conditions. On Oil the ball tends to labor unless you have alot of hand, it is alot more readable than previous Brunswick Skid Snap balls. Great ball for slower speeds or heavy hand releases, recovers well from an inside angle and hits very hard. Brunswick has done their job on this coverstock, I expect to see other balls come from them with the same coverstock in the future. Thanks for reading my review.

The Asymmetric core design matched with an EnMotion Core combined
With an Reactive cover stock.
The Twisted Fury
Is More aggressive in the mid-lane and back-end than High Octane, EnMotion Reactive
Twisted fury has a control predictable midland roller with great hitting power
This Ball is at it’s best on medium patterns
Reaction Characteristicsâ€
Out of the Box: With its Rough Buff finish, the Twisted Fury will provide excellent mid-lane recovery and a strong continuous back-end reaction.
If your Twisted Fury goes too long:
Dull the surface with 800-grit or rougher abrasive to get the Twisted Fury to roll sooner and increase its hooking action.
If your Twisted Fury hooks too early:
Polish your Twisted Fury with Brunswick’s Factory Finish High Gloss Polish.
To bring your Twisted Fury back to its original factory finish, sand the surface to 400-grit then use Brunswick’s Factory Rough Buff Finish.
Very predictable reaction with the ball not jumping too much or too little.
Creates some forgiveness area on the lane.
Controlled able Midlane will Make tackling tougher lane condition much easier

My Ultra started to check up early so I switched to the Twisted the last ball in practice and bam....I was off to the races....This ball was just a breeze to use...All night I only moved two boards...I left one weak ten pin in the 2nd game...At one point, I had 15 strikes in a row...The results are
300---245---289---834
This is my highest set ever and the 2nd highest ever bowled in the bowling center
Thanks to Dennis Reale for the opportunity to bowl with the Brunswick Twisted Fury and the Ultra Zone...See Ya Soon...Go Brunswick

Pin: 3 inch
Pin to PAP 4"
PAP: 5 3/4 1/4 under RH
Layout: Dual angle, PSA angle 45, Val 45
Cover: Rough buff (factory finish)
League average 223
Once everything was laid out..the pin sits about 1 inch under my middle finger. 15 games on this ball thus far, but thats enough for a first impression..In my opinion...
Amazing bench mark ball..Plays the track like no ones elses business..On Med. oil you can can carry all day long...when the backends get sloppy with carry down, she still turns up so pretty like.. 277 high game with it so far..If I keep calm I'll shoot 300 with it..but who cares..this is a ball that you can cash with..its a must have...I can play the track with out moving much through 6 games.
Example, King of the Hill tourneys, 6 game format, with 6 to a lane and moving lane to lane after each game, you know the drill.
League seems to have the same look until the heads go and forces you move in, with two and one moves to get more oil to keep it twisting.
You will not have to open the lane up much to get a sweet look or play deep inside to be effective..It seems to play all angles well though. I think BEST outside 17 for me...not a deep inside ball with this layout or cover..I would rather roll the Pearl Fury for a greater attack angle, you feel me..I wouldn't even suggest trying to use this ball deeper than 17!!! Sure I can swing it just like all of us can and I'm comfy inside..But play it where it scores best and carries better, and you will both shine!! Deep inside angles seem to ring the 10's, depending on the shot..I also like that I can play direct, with out relying on the outside bump, or having to belly the ball much..
Conclusion:
Easy revs..super mid lane read, PREDICTABLE, consistent and it hits so hard, Brunswick did it big with this one...Just know when to use it and when to bag it..Thats the key to winning
Good luck..
10 out of 10
I'm not here to brag about my high games, series or ability..I'm here to brag about how versatile this ball is... Buy one

I throw about 16-17 mph, medium revs, stroker-tweener and tried this ball on a medium house shot. This ball displays excellent length, with great recovery. This ball does just exactly what i wanted it to. Seems it will fit well on most medium to lighter shots. If i pulled it a little, it held, if i sent it out wide, it still maintained good recovery. Give this ball a chance.

WOW what a difference not only did the ball retain it's mid lane read but the energy stored was phenomenal. This hitting machine was throwing pins like they were children's plastic pins. As of this date I have thrown 3 300's plus 824 with this particular ball ( one of the 300's was on PBA scorpion ). One thing to remember about this ball is that was not intended for heavy oil and if you purchased one for a lot of oil you will be disappointed. this ball was intended for typical house and shorter PBA patterns.

The ball has a 3-4" pin with a pin under 4-1/2" x 60 degree layout (no balance hole).
This ball for me is a very good ball for fresh patterns with pretty dry backends. And on used lanes that are breaking down on the backend. So far I've shot my highest individual games (256 & 263) & series (660) with this ball.
This may sound stupid but another thing I really like about this ball is it is a great indicator for oil moving down the lane. The 1st shot I throw with this ball that lands solid in the pocket & the rack doesn't shatter like glass, I immediately go to my next ball up & the pins start to fly out the back again. This ball seems to lose most of it's hitting power whenever it encounters any oil on the backend. It looks like it tries to push to pins aside, rather than knock them down. But I find this reaction very beneficial because it's the only ball I have that gives me this type of read.
I've also used this ball on both the cheetah & chameleon patterns & did very poorly on both. The biggest part of the problem was operator error but even when I could find the pocket, it would not carry for me. My personal belief though is that it was more the drilling than it was the ball to blame for that.
The bottom line is if you're looking for a really good house shot ball, then you should give serious consideration to this ball. It is pretty tough to beat this ball on a THS.
I want to also say thanks again to Bill at Buddies Pro Shop. I really appreciate this ball.
Post by: camarokid on September 24, 2008, 04:27:56 PM
The ball is drilled using brunswicks advanced assymetric ball drilling layout, with the CG kicked out a little farther and no weight hole.
On a 38 foot house shot, the ball goes long, i mean real long. At about 50 feet it makes a huge jump left and just decimates the pocket, leaving only an occasional 10 pin or 9 pin. As a matter of fact, the only time it leaves something worse than that is when i throw it poorly.
It is a great ball and i recomend it for anyone looking for more length withour giving up turn.
Post by: Hazzard on October 13, 2008, 01:15:45 PM
I've had this about 4 months now. At first i didn't like the ball. it seemed to Brun up on me alot. After about two months I figured i would try it down and in. Try to play the lanes a lil straighter. What I good idea!!! Playing it from 20 to 10 with the break point at 5 seemed to be the way to go. If i miss inside the twisted fury would hold, miss out side it would recover. It carries well, not what I am use to a far as hitting power. I guess hammer has spoiled me a lil bit. I won a tournament with it yesterday 254,256,283.
Good ball to have in your bag if you ask me.

I got it used from a friend, plugged and redrilled it my favortite drill.
73x5x75 pin under middle finger, mass bias about an inch and a half left of thumb.
This ball and this drill allows me to do what I do best, pipe in up the five board. It revs up, rolls in the midlane and continues through the backend so well. I was worried it wouldnt hit very hard bc the person I got it from had switch grips (which I do too, but he is right handed). So it was a big hole to plug, but no way it hits as if brand new. I have quite a few bowling balls and am famous for switching alot (which isnt always good) but I have started and finished with the twisted pretty much everywhere I go. (traveling high school bowling). Looking for a nice versitile ball? get a twisted fury now.
Now I need a Twisted Fury Solid.

I bowl on a Modified house shot, about two feet longer than avg, and wet outside. Being a stroker who loves to throw it up five, this ball can let me do that on fresh oil. But, I can also open up the lane and will not worry about the ball not coming back. It will. My first set was a practice session where I shot a 741 series with games of 215, 227, and 299. If you're on the right condition, lined up, and repeat shot, you can strike on command with this ball. The carry is just phenomenal. Just my own $0.02

Layout: Pin over ring finger - 4-4.5" to PAP, MB out 60 degrees
Ball Reaction - Length with a strong arcing backend
Comments:
This was another ball I bought in reaction to some struggles I had in a couple of PBA Regionals during last summer. The problems had nothing to do with the tools, a bad pair of bowling shoes creating some bad habits and the lack of understanding of how to play inside was really the culprit. What I found out is that between this one and the Ultra Zone that BW and I don't really match up that well right now. Again, this ball was extremely condition specific, but on the right condition, it rolled really well. This ball definitely needed oil in front and needed some bounce right of the breakpoint to be effective. I tried to use it on the Viper and the Scorpion Patterns with limited success. I decided to sell this one back to the pro shop as well, I have other equipment that covers this spot that is much more versatile. I'm sure a stronger MB position would've made this ball a little more versatile, but it wasn't worth the investment to me to try it. This ball with this layout wasn't a good matchup for my game.
I learned that if I'm going to use BW equipment in the future, I should definitely use stronger MB positions because they tend to roll earlier and smoother than the Storm/Columbia stuff that I'm used to. This is not a knock on BW, it just a different ball reaction than I'm used to seeing and I can see them working really well for certain styles of bowlers. Just not me.
