- Description: Move up from Plastic to Reactive coverstock technology. Compared to Plastic, Reactive coverstock technology increases traction and hooking action in the oil, and Reactive coverstocks can be sanded or shined to create large differences in hook potential. Reactive coverstocks also respond more aggressively to dry lane surfaces than Urethane coverstocks, increasing backend hooking action and hitting power. This is recommended as a first high-performance ball.

Great for starting out with reactive! By Jay "Mr.300" Young from Detroit, MI
Reviewed on: 9/9/2009 Unverified Pros:Hook Cons:Flaws In Surface Best Uses:Local Bowling Alley, Upgrade Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend This was the first ball I ever bought and it did a great job. Before this ball, I was a regular house bowler and once i started useing this one, 4 years ago, it put my average at about a 170 (which is not bad for a first year bowler). But, I do think the way this ball hooks and reacts in the backend is perfect for a new bowler learning Point of Entry and Angle. Was this review helpful to you?

Excellent Starter By David from Huntsville, Texas
Reviewed on: 12/7/2009 Verified Reviewer Pros:Flawless Surface, Great Weight, Attractive Design, Comfortable Grip Best Uses:Local Bowling Alley Describe Yourself:Casual Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I've been bowling since I was 3 years old with nothing but alley balls. Now, aged 20, I finally got this one as my first ball, and it is amazing compared to those alley balls. My game instantly improved, and I feel better using this ball than I ever used to feel. I would happily recommend this line of balls to any casual bowler looking to buy their first ball, or just needing a simple and low priced spare ball. Was this review helpful to you?
