Radical Guru Oracle
The Radical Guru Oracle brings back the magic of the iconic original Guru—with a modern twist. Featuring the same trusted asymmetric core shape, the Guru Oracle introduces subtle density changes to fine-tune performance. With core specs of 2.50 RG, .044 differential, and .018 intermediate differential, it delivers the same powerful sweeping motion that made the original a must-have, but with enhanced consistency and versatility.
Wrapped in the cutting-edge HK22-C solid coverstock, the Guru Oracle offers intense traction, aggressive hook potential, and strong continuation through the pins. This is the modern Guru bowlers have been asking for—built for today’s oil patterns but with the heart of a classic.
If you loved the Original Guru, the Oracle is the answer you’ve been waiting for.

Bowlers dig the Guru Oracle's huge hook on slick oil, smooth mid-lane grab, and sharp backend drive that smashes pins. They call it versatile for all patterns, a must-bag remake that stacks strikes with ease. No weak spots—just pure lane dominance that fires up every throw.

Great ball for the fresh!
Needed a ball for the fresh as we have a ton of oil to start with on league nights, it was exactly what I was looking for. It gives me mid-lane with a lot of control and continuation through the pins. This ball also hits VERY hard. Good for the first 12-15 frames than it comes a bit too much and I need to ball down to something a little weaker. If your looking for a ball to start with on fresh, oily lane conditions look no further than the Radical Guru Oracle!

Guru oracle
Guru Oracle I’m a left handed bowler. My ball speed is around 13.5 mph. My Rev rate is around 275 rpms. I recently punched up this ball. My layout choice is 40 x 4 x 30. Very close to the most versatile layout suggestion on the Radical bowling website. For me this ball is a beast on the backend. The backend is strong. Not flippy. But aggressive backend motion. For me this core and layout and a loopy roll to it. That helps it get thru the fronts. And with the aggressive cover. Wow great backend hook. I think it is a great addition to the Radical line. I use my on house shots and the longer patterns. If you don’t owe one. I suggest you to try one out. Thanks, Robert Way

Customer Questions & Answers | Reviews
Question:
What do I need to use. To sand my ball
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Hello! Depending on the finish you would like to achieve, there are a variety of grits available for the Abralon Sanding Pads that you could use to sand your bowling ball.
Question:
Is this ball similar to storm or hammer or is it completely different?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
While there may not be an exact match to this ball from other brands, the most comparable option from Storm at this time is the Storm Ion Max and the most comparable option from Hammer may be the Hammer Special Effect. They are all high performance options with a solid reactive coverstock, asymmetric weight block, and handle heavier oil lane conditions.
Question:
How does this compare to the roto grip rst hyper drive
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
They are both going to be very comparable in a lot of ways. Both are higher performance bowling balls with asymmetric weight blocks. Both have a solid reactive coverstock finished with a 2000 grit finish. The slight differences will come down to the RG values for each ball and the Guru Oracle will read just slightly earlier on the lane for a slightly smoother reaction while the Hyper Drive may have just a little more length but has a stronger overall hook potential.
