Question:
How does the Zen compare to the Axiom Pearl
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
While the weight blocks are pretty similar the Zen Pearl coverstock would be a little stronger than the Axiom helping to give it more hook potential and this would be why the Zen Pearl is considered high performance while the Axiom is considered upper mid performance.

Question:
Would zen pair well with ufo alert or are they too similar
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
There are some slight differences in the length because the UFO Alert may read just slightly earlier but they are very close and you may not see a reason to have both bowling balls because they are very similar.

Question:
iS THIS BALL GOOD FOR SOMEONE WITH A SLOW SPEED?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Yes, the pearl coverstock and the polished finish would help this get down the lane so it would not react too early for your ball speed. So you could use this in medium to heavy oil conditions.

Question:
Is this a good Ball for a Lefty on lanes that Do Not have high oil?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
This ball is designed for medium to heavy oil so it would be too strong for lighter oil conditions. This could work for a left handed bowler but you would just have to make sure your driller sets it up for a left handed bowler.

Question:
Is this ball similar to the raw hammer pearl?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The Zen Pearl is designed to have a higher hook potential than the Hammer Raw series. The Zen Pearl can also handle more oil while the Hammer Raw was more for medium to lighter oil. They both have good length and a strong backend hook in their lane conditions but the Zen Pearl is much stronger.

Question:
how does the 900 global zen compare to the roto grip gem
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The Zen is designed to give you more length than the Gem due to the pearl coverstock and the smoother out of the box finish. This can help the Zen also work down into some medium oil conditions too because of the better length you get.

Question:
how do i get the ball set to my hand?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
We offer custom drilling on some bowling balls and for us to do the drilling you would already have to have your drilling measurements or drill sheet from a previous ball. Most people will not be able to get the measurements themselves so you would need to get the measurements from a driller to make sure they will be a good fit for you. If you are not sure of the measurements you can decline our drilling and still have the ball drilled at your local proshop after you receive the ball.

Question:
what is the main difference between zen pearl and wolverine dark moss. that wolverine looks like a winner. is there room in the bag for both ? zen is my #1 ball
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The Wolverine Dark Moss will be a great compliment to the Zen Pearl because they have very similar reactions but the Zen Pearl is a higher performance ball more suited for medium to heavy oil while the Wolverine Dark Moss is mid performance more suited just for medium oil. It would be a good 1-2 punch.

Question:
Would this ball be good for beginning to intermediate?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Hi Kyler, I would recommend for a beginner or intermediate to start out with a mid performance ball such as the 900Global Wolverine Dark Moss. The Zen Pearl is designed for heavier oil lane conditions and more aggressive.

Question:
Would this be a good compliment for a Phaze II as the lane transitions?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Hi Matt, the Storm Phaze II is a good option but the solid coverstock would react earlier on the lanes compared to a hybrid or pearl coverstock such as the Storm Phaze III or Phaze V.
