I don't own this but I know someone who does.  

It is pretty aggressive through longer oil, gets good length down the lanes, makes a strong hard arc that DESTROYS (bruises) the pins....this ball is super hard hitting and can be compared to any other PK18 reactives like......let's say.....the Fire Quantum, or a bit more length than Lane 1's Blue Berry in out of box condition.

The same guy throws the Time Zone too,

It gets more length than the Bruiser does, for more of a medium condition.  It can handle it's fair share of longer oils and carrydown, but it's not as aggressive on the backend.  If you miss outside in the oil, expect a wash out with the Time Zone.  It will hold well inside though...........you can vary the reactions of both balls by release and speed of course.  

I see the Time Zone as a first ball with cleaner backs, and the Bruiser for longer oils or some carrydown.......................at least that's how he plays them.
