This ball is the best Apex For length and back end. The Big Bang Shell is cleaner threw the fronts with the aggressiveness of the Big Easy Shell on the back. The core on the ball will be more driller freindly (as I thought the core's in the first two Apex's where easy to lay out) as they removed the light bulb fused core, allowing the bowler to use the whole gambit of drills.
I drilled mine with the folowing drill. Drawing a line between the Pin and the Bomb, I went 2" down from the pin, 2 " left was the center of grip, went 6" right with the weight hole. Typical 12:00 leverage.
What I like about this ball is I can move as far left as I want and not have the ball stop at a weak angle. Earlier Apex's had limitations on how far I could move in and still carry.
Most of the time I go to league and just pull out whatever I feel like throwing, because all of my Ebonite stuff works just fine, but this Apex Adrenaline will be the first thing out of the bag. This ball hits so well, that I carry a few more shots with the strength of the ball. Can hardly wait to see whats next. Great job Ebonite Tony

We just received our striking effects program ball and drilled it for a teammate. This bowler’s prefers to go down and in, but has the ability to bell the ball in need. He has more of a spinner style. This bowler has used all the balls in the Apex line and this is by far the best one that we have seen. The Intensity hooked earlier than the Adrenaline and was more controlled. The Reflex goes longer down the lane than the Adrenaline but with similar movement to the pocket..
The Adrenaline was laid out with the bomb on the Vertical Axis line, with the CG about 3 1/2" from his axis, and the pin right beside his ring finger. We left it in the box condition to see what this ball was going to do. He has used the bowl on both first shift and second shift lane conditions, and the second shift condition tends to be too dry for this bowler up the lane style. On the first shift lane condition the Adrenaline cleaner the heads with ease and then rev up in the middle lane and when this ball makes it move, look out.
This new core/coverstock combination is excellent and is another great ball, not only because it is an Apex, but it compliments both the other Apex’s.
Our teammate shot 780 last night with this ball and immediately, there was 3 or 4 people in the shop asking about the ball.

We put (8) of theses puppies on the lanes today and we drilled
one for ourselves to try out and see if it equals up the the first two Apex's!
We used the #1. Drilling pattern, as suggested in the Ebonite Adrenaline drilling sheet. this drilling provides for a smooth ARC style hook and we left the ball with its "Out-of-the-box" finish and went to the lanes to give this one a test drive! With the new "Big Bang" Particle,(Pearlized) cover stock, we hoped it would provide a little more length than the Reflex & Intensity Apex's.
On a typical top hat house condition, we found right away that this ball had excellent gripping action and control.
When the ball hit the break point, it was a "Strong & Continuous"
hook to the pocket! even with the weaker drilling this ball
had no problem turning the corner!
Hitting Power? Tremendous!!! As we have seen from the first two Apex's
The Adrenaline was able to play inside and outside lines with no problem
of reading the lanes and turning up strong!
We went back to the Proshop for a light shine with "Black Magic"
to see if we could extend the length and still get a strong hook!
This APEX did not disappoint us! we were able to get an additional
amount of length and a even bigger hook and finish!
We believe this APEX will work well for many bowlers and if you are one of those first APEX users, you MUST get this One!
We Highly Recommend this ball to all bowlers
and believe it will help you conquer those Medium to Oil
lane conditions with Power to spare!

WOW! I thought my intensity was strong, this ball goes thru the heads easy and is very continuous. With my limited hand I can get almost any ball to quit with this ball I had to extremely open the lane to get it to even slow down. Tweeners and straight players will love this ball. Power players will polish it unless they have 75 to 90 degree axis rotation or alot of oil. This ball also reads synthetic lanes better than any particle ball I have thrown to date.

Out of the box, in the Super Classic League, I managed to throw 33 out of 36 possible strikes for games and series of 300-259-298/ 857 to set a new city record! The only bad pitch was the last ball where I felt like a rookie going for his first 300 game. Choke, did you say.....I'm afraid so.
This ball hits and carries EVERYTHING and accentuates Bo Burton's adage of "ten in the pit"!! I've been bowling a long time and it doesn't get better than this.
Haven't played with it any in getting it polished but from what I have read in the reviews, this ball shines well with its same explosive carry. That's next on my agenda....I'll let you know how that goes.

After scuffing the Adrenaline to 600 grit to tame this beast I returned to the lanes the next day. The lanes were similar to the previous day, however now the Adrenaline had a nice arcing hook to the pocket. The carry with the ball is amazing. The Adrenaline is the perfect compliment to the Intensity and the Reflex. If you don't like to hook the ball, avoid the Adrenaline.

satisfied with the Dynasty and had been using
that and a Stinger 2-piece pearl almost exclusively.
The only thing I can really say about what I have seen
from the Adrenaline is - more - more length than the
original Apex, more backend than the Intensity and more
HIT than maybe anything I have ever thrown.
Oh yeah pro shop operators, you know when the guy walks
in and says "I want something that will hook as much as
my other stuff but all in the back-end"?
The Adrenaline will be what they mean.

layout. The CG is about mid-span with the mass bias (bomb) a little left of the thumb.
After drilling it has 1 ounce of side weight, 7/8 ounces of finger weight.
On the afternoon shot before oiling, I was standing 35 looking between fourth and fifth arrow, out to
10, and the ball came charging back. In other words, this ball needs oil.
On fresh longer oil, I threw the ball a little straighter and it didn't over react, nor over-under. The ball
had a nice hard arc on the longer oil, the perfect reaction I wanted on heavier oil.

Man was I wrong. I do not have as much confidence with any other ball I have. There is nothing I have seen that is stronger on the backend than the Adrenaline. It hits harder than the Intensity with more drive. The Intensity had a different kind of hit and drive where pins flew everywhere, the Adrenaline blows them back and low.
I have not thrown a particle that clears the heads as easily as this ball and man when it turns it turns.
I used it in oil......not sending it to the dry and the middle had no backends and this ball still drove late..........
This ball is awesome....everyone should have a place for it in their bag.....
I also give this ball a 10, for the intended condition ofcourse.......

The lanes were oily so a left it factory finish.I drilled another one rev lev
for high track player which I am (4inch pin 75 degree bomb 6 inch hole)and
shined it with ebonite extender polish and WOW talk about open up a lane on a house condition.I shot my best series ever 846 with a 300 2nd 300 with that ball
This is the hardest hitting most hooking ball I've ever thrown without losing
energy on the backend.I have drilled about 50 of them for my customers and there has been a lot of good response.Another great ball from ebonite

A little background information. This is my first Ebonite ball in almost ten years. I have bowled mostly with Columbia, Brunswick, and Storm during those years. In fact, my last Ebonite balls were the Blue Nitro and the Turbo X.
I was in need of a pearl particle ball for my arsenal. When I heard about the Adrenaline, my interest peaked. After some research, I bought my Adrenaline about two weeks ago. I chose the Adrenaline because I did not like what I saw in the Columbia and Brunswick lines. And, I did not want another Storm ball because I already own a Storm Trauma and I thought the Trauma Recovery was similar in reaction. I had seen and heard good things about the Apex line and I wanted to give the Adrenaline a shot. Anyway, let me say that choosing the Apex Adrenaline was one of the best bowling decisions I have ever made.
Ball Specs – 15 lbs. 3 inch pin out with 3 ¼ top weight.
Drilling – (Pattern #5 from drill sheet in box.) Pin is located directly above the finger bridge. The CG is swung out to about an inch or so from the center of grip and the Bomb is located in the “Strong†position. Bomb is located about halfway between the right of the thumbhole and the VAL. A balance hole was drilled on the PAP to keep it legal.
The surface was immediately polished out of the box, then the polish was stripped a little and broken down to a very light polish.
On to the lanes! First house. I used the Adrenaline on synthetic lanes first. The shot was a typical house shot where they oil and buff to about to 40 feet. When I arrived, the lane crew had just finished oiling the pair. Great! On a fresh shot, the Adrenaline was fantastic! The ball got down the lane with complete ease. I didn’t have to work hard at all to get it up the boards. The mid lane was completely even and the back end was a hard arc type of hook. No snappy over-reacting stuff here. When the Adrenaline hit the back end, the move was hard and precise. The move to the pocket was absolutely perfect for me. After getting acquainted with ball the first game, I rolled a 297 in the next. (Choke – Cough – Cough!) Anyway, the ball hits HARD!
Next house. Synthetics with carry down and slightly burned up heads. The Adrenaline did not like this condition at all. Because of the lack of oil in the front part of the lane, the move to the pocket started too early for any type of good action. Regardless of the move with my feet, the ball wanted to roll a little too early for me. This ball really needs some head oil to play well. I had to put in the bag.
Last house – Wooden lanes oiled to about 40 feet with fresh back ends. The shot and carry on this pair was great. The Adrenaline was very smooth and consistent. Hit and carry was excellent. I averaged 221 a game over ten games of practice. I think I moved about two boards the whole time. Anyway, this is one absolutely great ball from Ebonite. I highly recommend this ball to anyone who is serious about bowling and needs to add a pearl particle ball to the arsenal. Good Luck!

Read profile for style and PAP.
Starting Numbers
15lbs 4 oz
Top Weight:2.5oz
Pin 2.5inch
Drilling: Rev leverage for High track player, cg slightly out.
Surface: Box finish(1200sand)
Tried on a couple of conditions 1 was a med house shot, with clean backends on wood.
The First condition this ball was incredible strong.I couldn't toss this one out far enough. Tighter lines were impossible to play constantly coming through the head. Anything inside of the 2nd arrow was high. Ball has excellent carry. Great energy distribution in the backend, this ball is all backend. I have to say it covers as many or possibly, very possibly more than the Intensity.
Second Condition, Second shift with light carrydown, still pretty clean Backends, on wood.
This condition was more difficult that the first, the ball still moved alot, but it was burning a little more energy in the heads. The ball didn't have any serious problems with carrydown. Most pearls even if they are particle don't always handle carrydown well, but this one has no concerns. Carry was still exceptional.
Thrid condition. Fresh lanes, heavy House shot, with ok, but not flying backends, this was on wood again.
Ball was really proving that it makes alot of the moving in the backends, This ball sailed just to the breakpoint and then made a strong arcing move to the pocket.Carry was incredible.
Overall Ball comments.
Ball motion is Strong Arc, but saves alot of energy. Good for player with Average or maybe even above average revs, if you like to play the entire lane.
Not a down and in ball, it will check up too early. Ball needs oil in the heads and something in the mid-lane to save all that energy, or it will start to roll out.Ball speed is going to have to be average or preferably higher.
Great for the Cranker that wants a strong ball for house shot.

The second drilling has the pin below and between the fingers, for me, the drilling has always helped the ball get down the lane and BOOM on the backend. I get about 3-4 ft further down the lane with this ball than I do the other one. MAYBE even a little more POP into the pocket. All I can say is this-I am very impressed with Ebonite, particularly the Apex line almost to the point of never wanting a ball from another company.

Rev Leverage drilling
Medium speed and revs
I got this ball on a trial basis from my local pro shop last night. I needed a ball that would get through a long heavy oil pattern and still give me a hard break to the pocket with very slick backends. This is the ticket. This ball out turns anything else in my bag(Tiger,Pantera,Apex). I also shot this ball on a medium pattern with fresh backends and I had to fire it down the lane to keep from going high. In both conditions this thing obliterated the rack even if the shot wasn,t perfect.

This a definite change of direction big hooker
This is the biggest hooker i have thrown more than my Colossus
The Adrenaline gets great length for a sanded ball and makes a very
distinct turn at the breakpoint. It is great for heavier patterns or synthetics
I rarely use it for not enough oil around to throw it on.
hook-9.5
carry-9
control-4
change of direction/snap-9.5
1 problem- this is the 2nd one , the 1st one the shell cracked and spearated from the core.

My 15 pound Adrenaline came with a 2-3 inch pin and a 3.2 top weight.. I had it set up with the directly over my ring finger with the CG out 1 inch, and the bomb was layed out to a 75 degree set up... this set up was SUPPOSED to be for a medium-fresh shot with clean ends.......WRONG!!!
This ball out hooks my Evolution Tour 2 by almost 10 boards.. When I have a league shot out, this ball gets the bag after the 1st game... With my evolution tour 2 i can use it for a 3 game set with no problem... Every pro shop has said that if you want raw hook, get an Adrenaline!! And after purchasing one, i honestly couldn't agree more..I have never had as many messengers with any other ball until i picked up my apex!!
on a scale 1-10!!
versatility- 8.5
control- 8
hook- 10+
the adrenaline get a 9!!!
Post by: BowlingFanatic300 on May 08, 2002, 04:58:25 PM
On me, 18-19 MPH, a whole lot of revs
First, I threw his stronger Adrenaline, set up for length in the front, with good midlane, and huge backend. All I have to say is man, what an animal! This ball absolutely flew for me. It hooked so much that I was sliding in the left gutter and peaking the ball between 2-4 board at about 45-48 feet. Obviously, from this angle, I rung a ton of ten pins, however I did carry well enough to post two clean 220s with it.
Next, on the same condition, which, by the way, was heavy oil 10 to 10, with moderate outsides, and decent backend carrydown, I threw his other Adrenaline. Interestingly enough, this one actually had a stronger set-up, with early roll and big backend (Ebonite's strongest drill pattern). However, this one hooked about 10 boards less than his other Adrenaline. I was able to square up much better with this Adrenaline than his other. A very solid and strong hit with this line, and two 260s after 2 bad shots and 2 solid 9s.
Overall, just from throwing this ball in two versions, I can say that, depending on how you set this ball up, it can be a very versatile ball. It will never be a light oil to dry lane ball, but you can get a vast number of reactions out of it depending on what you are looking for.
9/10 A 10/10 on heavy oil, and a 9/10 on medium oil.

Some people have described this ball as a particle ball that acts like a resin. I can see why, but that doesn't really tell the story. The ball does go long and flip with a reving action typical of a strong reactive. However we are still talking about a heavy oil particle ball here. True it is cleaner through the heads than than its predecessors in the Ebonite particle line, or the Storm hook monsters like the repsonse or X-it. The strength is comparable to my Detonator, with the same angular break point. While the Detonator stands up in the hook set style I love, the Adrenaline holds a little more tilt, and will cut through just a little more late oil with good hitting power. One other thing I noticed about this ball is that you still want to be very firm when throw it, at least if you use the 45 degree bomb drilling. I found that if I got a little bit weak with my wrist I ended up with not enough revs off a still sharp break point yielding tons of flat 10's. On the other hand a good strong release off the back causes this ball to look like it revs up at the break point. I love that look when I move in. I think the Adrenaline will be an excellent oil ball for me, neither better or worse than my Detonator, but enough different to make it worth while. If you are only taking 2 or 3 balls you would not take both the detonator and adrenaline, but if you are using 4 or more in your arsenal, having both really gives you some options on oil.

for about four months now and it's still my #1 ball out of the bag. I'm a tweener with med revs and
med speed. I have this drilled for maximum hook according to the instructions. (pin is under the ring finger
with cg kicked out and bomb at 45 deg) When I first got this ball I couldn't keep it on the
lane. After I polished it up with Storm Proacta Shine this ball finally matched my style.
I stand 20 to 25 and try to hit 7 or 8.(I'm left handed) When I miss wide (by a couple of boards)
it seems to always come back. Likewise when I tug it a little it seems to hold.
If your looking for a great league ball look no further. P.S. this is absolutely the hardest hitting ball i have ever seen.
Post by: sheppy335 on August 19, 2002, 11:36:50 AM
Wow that was a terrible review by me! I am still using the ball, and i love the reaction of it till this day. I have it drilled to go longer and then snap to the pocket. I think it is a very versatile ball for me, and with a change of hand position i can get it to go longer. I can read the lane well with this ball cause it has a smooth transition to me. i know it is a older ball but it is a reliable one to me!

Compared to other seasons. This ball hooks like a beast,
I got it drilled for label Leverage and i recieve awesome
results. Once you hit the pocket you recieve great results,
so now i don't leave as many ringing 10 or 7 pins.
Post by: Lima Bean on January 03, 2003, 11:30:18 PM
Carrydown does NOT effect this ball what so ever. not made for too much oil, and better suited for a med-higher rev player, but anyone can throw it successfully, thats the great thing about it

Ball's specs, 15lb. 3oz top weight before drill, 3" pin, drilled 4x4 weight hole on the pap.
This ball revs up early and reads the midlane better than any ball I have thrown. The back end is easily adjusted with wrist position, and release. The adrenaline hits hard even when the lanes are too dry for it.
I don't care for the reaction I got when it was polished, it tended to skate through the breakpoint and not turn the corner on the backend. I suggest keeping the ball dull unless you have less speed and or much more hand than I.
Over all this is my go to ball on fresh oil, it plays very forgiving and doesn't over/under a lot.
Post by: UNObowler01 on May 07, 2003, 12:12:09 PM
pin out 4 inches
top unknown
Layout:
4 x 5
Pin above and right of ring finger, label just on positive side of grip line. Bomb in weak position, thumb neg. quadrant.
This is one of the best hitting dull balls I have thrown. I throw pretty hard, and hit the ball plenty. This ball never rolls out! Always a strong, rolling arc. Good on soupy stuff. I used it recently in a tournament where everyone was having a rough time getting the ball to wrinkle. People were squaring up on the gutter. I stayed inside on 25 over 15 at the arrows, and it was rolling up around 35-40 feet and turning over very nicely. Light hits were all gone-swish the rack out clean. Solid hits tripped 10s every time. I was getting great reaction...too bad I kept short arming it thinking it wouldn't hook. Finally stopped doing that the last game and shot very well.
Good oil ball, will be my first out at Knoxville. I'm even thinking about an Addiction or Agression.
Another A+ Ebonite. Definitely marketed for what it was designed and developed to do. A ball that does what it says.

pin out 3"
don't know top weight
Pro shop drilled the ball rev leverage with balance hole 2" deep, MB 45 degrees. I love the reaction of the ball. Its backend is tremendous as if the ball is really really angry with the pins. I'm a lefty and stand at around 30 boards from left and throws between 5 to 10 boards. I'm bowling in normal house condition. Have tried on long oil pattern with the previous league and has performed well(Our team finished 3rd - DFBC 1st conference 2003,DUBAI,UAE).
Hope to score well in our EABC league so i can join the coming in Bankok this August.
I highly recommend the ball.

first game I rolled it I knew I'd love it...
Then on thursday night league I had front 7 strikes left a 10 pin and missed it,then struck out for 267.
next game shot 300 all dead flush strikes,then went front 4 spare strikes to the 9th left the bucket(first ball outta the pocket all night..of course I chopped it...then struck out for 246...wow what a ball...
then almost a year and a half later I see it setting on my side porch,so I changed grips and tonight on Jan 28,2004 I shot the following
233 - 299 - 278 = 810 so it just goes to show you whats not in your bag one night shoulda been the next night,
good luck and good bowling,

I collected all of the Ebonite Apex ball.
This is the ball I used next to my the Apex Addiction and Apex Obsession. I used these Three ball on a Sports Shot 2 years ago. All Sanded 800 to 300 grit. But Sports Shot is such a Hard League. So I don't blame the ball if I make some error. Everyone balls reacts like a dart anyway. On a Medium lane I start at the 2 to 3 left board (Right handed). On a Sport Shot I start at the 2 to 3 right board and still roll toward the 10 pin. But of course you learned to adjust.
Overall it's a great ball.

Astounding results on my house shot. I have raised my average from about 207 to 216 this year using this thing. Not sure what it is, but I see a really strong arcing roll, with plenty of finishing power at the end. Seems to carry everything. Since I don't turn the ball a lot, I did run into some trouble the one night that there was a heavier volume out there.
Definitely the first ball out of the bag, and very usable on a house shot. I am still wary of the folks out there that say some of the Ebonite stuff burns up, but I have not seen it so far.
