Likes: The new Ebonite Game Breaker 5 has a smooth and strong overall hook that fits right into the "benchmark" category. It's early & predictable so it's generally going to keep you out of trouble, yet it's a ball that you can stay in a little longer because it strong enough to tip around the corner as well. Excellent option for fist ball out of the bag on both House & Sport patterns.

The Ebonite Game Breaker 5 (GB5) is the newest benchmark ball out on the market. It is earlier than the GB4 and much stronger through the pins. I have only used this ball on fresh patterns and house shot, and it does not disappoint. Overall, this ball is smooth through the lane and strong on the hook potential. This is a great option for being the first ball out of the bag for league or tournament play.

Likes:The new Ebonite GB5 quickly proves itself to be the benchmark ball you've come to expect from the Game Breaker series and they keep getting better. Out of the box the GB5 picks up pretty early but remains controllable throughout the lane and through the pins.  So far I've only used it on THS and the shot at my local center that can classified by most as a sport pattern.  Good job on keeping the tradition with the GB5, Ebonite!!
