Great pin action. Ball stays clean through the pocket. Allow for small errors. I am a league bowler with a 195 average and the first series I shot with this ball was a 713. I forsee great games with this ball. Very consistant, drives hard when it hits the pins. Great on oil patterns. I plan on using this ball during the State tournament this May. Looking for a possible 300 game soon.

The mission is a great ball for medium heavy to heavy oil for ya'll crankers and not a regular house shot oil pattern!!! The ball comes back no matter how deep you throw the ball and it won't die when it hits the break point back to the pocket. The ball clearly has raw and incredible hitting power. It is definitely a ball to have part of your arsenal.

I was reluctant to try another Ebonite ball after the last few years where they haven't really came out with a must have ball. That has all changed with the release of this ball. I have heard Ebonite is scraping there whole arsenal of balls but I really hope they keep this line. The ball is very predictable and has an awesome continuous back end motion. If there is not a lot of head oil though it can be tough to get it down the lane so it is not a ball for light oil but otherwise it is great. The only draw back I have had with this ball is that I have begun to leave some 8 pins...
I am a RH league bowler with 200+ avg. ~15mph ball speed tweener.
Would love to see a pearl with this same core so it would have a little more length....already saving up to add a second mission to my bag!

I use this product for tournaments and leauges. this ball is the most hooking ball i have. i have a virtual gravity nomad pearl copperhead yet this ball over hooks all of them. I have a 3-4" pin this ball never stops hooking but you can control it. I bet you could never get on a pattern that it wouldnt take off. This ball is a must have i am 30 pins over my average with this ball. Its so great you cant explain it. I hope you try this ball its worth every cent of it. trust me thanks.

Back a couple years ago I was a Hammer person. I bowled with the Toxic Raw Hammer for 2 years. Hit good for me too. I didn't know much about Ebonite but I thought I'd try the Ebonite Complete NV didn't have the same curve but hit the pocket harder. I thought about getting the Evolve but I read some reviews and figured the Mission was the way to go. I'm usually a 190 or a 200 bowler now I'm 210+. I've only had one game under 200 with it and that's because I let up on one frame and it came back on me. Overall, great ball. Hits the pocket strong, you just can't let up or its hitting the head pin. Get the ball! It's GREAT! Trust me.

Barley hooked, always rolled out, hit flat and always left corner pins. Tried polish, and dulling it up more than usual and all had the same result. Maybe it was a defective ball, but not going to get another just to find that out. Biggest waste of money ever, sold it for fifty bucks to a friend after twenty or so games.

Upgraded from an older Ebonite and a Hammer. This ball rocks. Used primarily in league play on medium oil patterns. As long as you maintain consistant speed, this ball has excellent action. During the first month of use, bowling 2o plus pins over my average. It's worth a try for those on the fence.

PERSONAL OPINION:
THIS BALL IS GREAT. A MUST HAVE FOR BOWLERS, LOOKING TO IMPROVE THEIR GAME. THIS BALL, FROM WHAT I CAN TELL REACTS BETTER ON MEDIUM TO HIGH OIL LANES. THIS BALL HAS A GREAT BACK END HIT AND LEAVES ROOM FOR ERROR, SHOULD YOU MISS YOUR SHOT TO THE OUTSIDE. WHEN THE LANES ARE A LITTLE MORE DRY AND BURNT OUT, BE PREPARED FOR THIS BALL TO HOOK TOO MUCH AND MISS THE HEAD, SHOULD YOU MISS YOUR SHOT, TO THE INSIDE. ALL-N-ALL, I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THIS BALL AND WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE.

Takes time to locate correct spot to stand and area to hit on release of ball.
Hits hard and mixes well if correct approach is taken. Got to find the right released point early in the contest.

I recently decided to upgrade my equipment which was a 3 year old ball that was not wanting to react and some worn out shoes. After getting some new shoes I decided to start looking for a new ball. After looking on multiple websites for reviews and watching a lot of videos on different balls and how they reacted, I decided on the Ebonite Mission. I got it from [...] and had it drilled with inserts that same day, I bowled 2 games with my old ball while waiting and averaged had a 126 and 135. The guy came over with my new ball and [...] and I tried it out, the first throw was awful for me going way right, it rode the edge of the lane, but once it hit the dry and caught it curved hard left straight into the pocket leaving the 10. It was such a surprise on how it moved. Once I got use to the different inserts it had it was such a difference in how much I hit the pocket. With my old ball I had trouble hitting right of the pocket directly on the 3 pin and I would leave the 1, 2, and 4. Not with the mission, now matter how horrible I throw it, it still reacts and hits the pocket. The last game I played was around 170, which to me is a major improvement. If you are having trouble getting your current ball to react and are looking to upgrade anyways, you should look into the Mission, It is a amazing ball that no matter how horrible a throw is, it forgives you again and again.

This is a fantastic Mid/Heavy oil ball. This ball is not the biggest hooking ball I have ever thrown but it is the best hooking ball "IN OIL" that I have thrown. It conquers oil period! The mission can open up any lane but creates a nice controllable move to the pocket. Its not flippy or sharp but does like to be thrown away from the pocket. Nice ball Ebonite!
