Question for the Brunswick guys/ What to drill
« on: July 31, 2007, 01:58:18 AM »
Hey guys I just recently got a Radical my first Brunswick ball in years an really liked the reaction. Now im looking for opinions of what to get to fit between my Angular One and the Radical. Im med/high speed med revs. Also the angular is earlier and stronger than my Radical. Thanks for any input.

In my opinion, I'd go the other direction and get something with a stronger cover. Right now you've got two pearl reactives that give you a skid-snap reaction.

A solid reactive that would read the lane earlier would be much better for slicker conditions, or at least being able to open up the lane. The Fury is definitely a good choice, and my Wizard is probably my strongest cover ball (aside from the particle balls).  Either of these balls can go from extreme dull to very shiny to match up with the conditions you face more often.  Good luck.

I do have a NV that is stronger than both. The Fury would be even stronger.

I've thrown every Brunswick ball released since 2005, and since you're set on a pearl reactive, you might try a Vapor Zone. Mine hooks a ton, and is stronger and more consistent than my Radical.  The Radical, depending on the surface preparation, can be either jumpy at the breakpoint, or smooth and continuous.
The Total Inferno would be earlier than either your Radical or Angular One. The Smokin' is a little weaker than the Radical, the Blast Zone, being a hybrid, should be earlier, Punisher is weaker, Rampage may be close to what you want if you get the cover down to around 1000-2000 abralon...

I'll go for the Blast Zone, box finish a bit earlier than the Vapor, polished you have the length and the backend is sharper and stronger than the Vapor.  The surfac is very easy to adjust, This is a fine piece of equipment after the Vapor in the zone line.
