The Wreck-It is the long awaited follow up to the highly successful Wrecker. This version has a slightly stronger cover called Psyched, and comes from the factory with a 3000 abralon finish. The Wreck-It looks cool with it’s gold & white pearl with black solid color combination.
I drilled the Wreck-It with a 4 x 5 x 3 layout. In the box finish, the Wreck-It covered a lot of boards for me, in fact, too many boards. I had to knock the cover down some with some Storm step #1 to have a usable amount of board coverage. The Neutron core has been highly successful for many bowlers over the years. For me personally, I have either had a little too early or a little too late of ball motion with this particular core. The late-roll 56 version of this core (same basic shape with higher Rg and a lower differential) has been a little better for my particular ball roll. I have to have just the right oil pattern to have good ball reaction with my Wreck-It. For me, the Wreck-It is a definite improvement over my Wrecker though. The stronger cover has evened out the reaction for me a bit, and gives me a ball that is usable, on the right pattern shape, that being a true medium shot with moderate blend.
The Wreck-It can give bowlers a big ball amount of hook, at a more budget friendly price. I like my Wreck-It more than I liked my Wrecker, as the Wrecker had a bit too much backend for me. With all of the different combinations of cover and core shapes out there, there is always going to be a ball that may not be as great for one bowler as it is for another. That is why it’s so important to talk to a certified pro shop operator to find the right ball for the conditions that you are going to be bowling on. Thank you for taking the time to read my review of the Wreck-It.
