- Description: The Brunswick BVP™ series has been developed to provide the widest range of reactions available at the popular mid-price point. The BVP series provides any bowler the ball performance they’re looking for at a price they can afford.
The BVP Sidewinder features Brunswick’s first Solid / Pearl Hybrid - Low Load Particle coverstock. Known for mid-lane recovery with controlled and continuous breakpoints, the Brunswick low load particle ball reaction has been a favorite for many types of bowlers on both high scoring house shots and more demanding sport lane conditions. The Sidewinder’s version of the low load particle coverstock is an updated version of the same coverstock made popular by the Fuze® Eliminator, Danger Zone® Pro HPD and Navy Quantum®. The Sidewinder version is Solid / Pearl hybrid with a low load of traction increasing particles distributed in all colors.
The Sidewinder upgrades the performance of the BVP Ambush by using Brunswick’s new lower RG Rocket core system. The lower RG of the Rocket core helps the Sidewinder get into an earlier roll which helps create more mid-lane recovery on today’s high viscosity oils and hard synthetic lane surfaces.

Great Starter Ball By EFLOW from Caserma Ederle, Italy (U.S. Army Base)
Reviewed on: 2/14/2010 Verified Reviewer Pros:Attractive Design, Comfortable Grip, Low Price, Monster Hook Cons:Not The Most Durable, Flaws In Surface Best Uses:Upgrading From House Ball, Local Bowling Alley, Upgrade, First Time User, Tournaments Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I started bowling about 8 months ago. My average was roughly 130 with the house balls. When I first purchased the Sidewinder my average jumped to 150 - 160. Since then i've joined a league where my average has increased further, now about 180. I don't have to much negative to say about the ball other than that it is not the most forgiving ball if thrown incorrectly. Was this review helpful to you? Yes / No- You may also flag this review.

had for two years By Jim from Midlothian Virginia
Reviewed on: 4/3/2010 Unverified Pros:Comfortable Grip Best Uses:Local Bowling Alley Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend This ball has been great used a black diamond for 25 years. Switched to this ball two years ago. Needed a lighter ball, took a while to get used to the hook. But now I love it I throw a very tight line and the ball is very predicatable. It is beat up by the lanes but still performs well AND PREDICTABLE. I have rolled more 600 series in the last year than I did in the previous 40 years put together. Was this review helpful to you?
