BVP Nemesis
« on: May 13, 2010, 04:01:49 PM »
I was just wondering what would be in the current Brunswick line that is similar to the Nemesis.

The Diamondback would be the current replacement.

I would agree with Corey, but with the right surface the Diamondback should cover more boards late.

Thanks for the answers. So just one more question. What would be a good 4 ball arsenal using Brunswick? Have been using Storm for a little while now. My ball speed is 16.5, revs 345 and very little axis tilt at all.

jmattox, are you looking for a 4 ball arsenal for league on a THS?  If so, I have and would recommend a Python for one of the balls.  The Python has a strong reaction downlane with a polished surface.  Another ball that I really like is the Wild Card which is a 2000 grit surface solid coverstock ball that has a smooth arc.  You should also consider a weaker reacting ball like the Slingshot or the Avalanche Pearl for when the lanes break down and you need to go straighter and still control the breakpoint.  And to round out the arsenal, I have heard that the Evil Siege is a must have which I don't have one yet.  If you are looking for a heavier oil ball, then the Siege would be a good fit.

jmattox,

Here's my recommendations:

Heavy oil - Wild Card at 2000 will handle more than most of us will ever see, normally it will be a bit more angular than the Siege. Mine was going Brooklyn playing outside at Nationals, and I've used it on extremely heavy stuff with success.

Medium - Diamondback at 4000, or polished depending on your taste. Mine's polished and it's a BEAST! I need to open up the lane with this one.

Medium (pearl) - The Rattler or Wild Thing are great choices with more finish late because they are pearls.

Lighter oil - Green/black Avalanche is my 1st choice, but if the lanes dry out too much I can always use the Slingshot. Good luck.

Thanks again with the answers. I would be using the balls for THS and also I bowl ABT also. Some houses for the ABT use PBA patterns and others just lay a long flat pattern.

If you are looking to set up an arsenal of Brunswick equipment you MUST at least consider a ball from the C-System line. These balls are that good.
