The New Brunswick C System 2.5 Bowling Ball
August 22nd, 2009
Brunswick’s Siege
July 6th, 2009Brunswick Siege is a new high end ball designed to combat heavier volume oil patterns. The Siege has a asymmetric core named M.A.C.E. (Mechanical Asymmetric Core Engineering) which is a very Low RG core designed work with a new coverstock call Recoil. The M.A.C.E. core’s High differential will assist traction in higher volume patterns and the High RG asymmetric differential will allow the Siege to respond quicker to friction. Brunswick’s Recoil cover is designed to improve mid-lane and backend reaction that allows you to combat today’s oils and lane surfaces.
I smoothed the Siege down to 4000 abralon then drilled it 45×5x65 with a weight hole about one inch from the mass bias mark. On the house pattern this ball created surprising length, strong but controllable move at the break, and it went through the pins with amazing energy. I was able to use this ball for 2 out of the 3 games in league competition before it became too much ball. I then tested my Siege on the 2009 USBC pattern even though I had to play the lanes straighter the ball still gave me a really good reaction, but I wanted to see what the Siege would do if I took it back to 1000 abralon. After The quick surface adjustment the Siege really showed its teeth I had more area at the break point (a good 2 to 3 boards) with this ball than I have had with my other equipment. I found it really great that even at the 1000 abralon finish the ball still cleared the heads and maintained energy at the pins. I would have say that I have found my new favorite ball to use on high volume patterns.
Brunswick Wild Thing
July 6th, 2009I Finally got a chance to throw my Brunswick Wild Thing with the ConneXion coverstock and it did not disappoint. I drilled my Wild Thing with a dual angle of 45X 4 3/4x 70 with a 4000 abralon finish( have same specs on my Wild Ride). I was looking for the Wild Thing to be stronger in the mid-lane and to have more angle in the back. Even though on our fresh house shot I was 5 and 3 left of my Wild ride and because of its quick response to friction this ball was almost too angular in the backend. After a few games even with the heads starting to dry up and the backends starting to tighten up my angle to the pocket got was never better. After a 2 and 1 move left with the Wild Thing which was still very clean through the heads. The ball gave me tremendous amounts of forgiveness at my down lane target and incredible pin carry. I was a little apprehensive about this ball (for THS) because it has a lower RG and a bigger differential(.045) than my Wild Ride and because sometimes I lose continuation to the pocket and carry power when trying to use stronger ball on THS. My Wild Thing was absolutely amazing never once while I was throwing it did I have to worry about the ball losing its energy and hitting flat. The Wild Thing is a great addition to Brunswick’s High Performance line and a definite plus to your arsenal.

Coming Soon
Our Hot Line Performance Series has always been and always will be the most hook for the money in the industry. We had great success with our Street Rod™ Series of bowling balls and the Turbine™ weight block. With today’s changing oils and conditioners, we felt it was time to upgrade the tire that touches the lane
The Storm Fast and the Storm Furious will feature the R2S™ coverstock. This second generation of Reactor™ coverstock has amplified the hook potential of the original: so in translation, we have continued our tradition of value & performance.
Now is the time to step on that pedal to the RIGHT!
