Radical Hitter
I’m a left handed bowler. My ball speed is around 14.5 mph. My Rev rate is around 275 rpms. My layout choice is 80 x 2 1/4 x 45. My opinion this is the greatest ball I have in my bag. It’s not the biggest hooking ball. But it is a very reliable ball. If I need to play up the boards. It works well. If I need to swing it a little it works well. It’s like the ball does whatever I need it to do. It has a small arc motion to it. I think Radical bowling technologies not it out of the part with this ball.
Thanks,
Robert Way

Hit it out of the park
This is truly a Big League Hitter. I love the solid Utility cover and the pins stay low with the low RG. The ball is really smooth and fits in my bag between the Hammer Extreme Envy and the Hammer Dark Web Hybrid. This ball will lend it self to the first ball out of the bag on the fresh.

Hitter
The Hitter is a great asymmetrical ball in the reliable price point. I drilled mine 40x 4 ¼ x 70 the pin down layout. I wanted a smooth roll with control on the backed. The Hitter is great for this layout. The cover allows this ball to be used on the heaver volumes not usually tackled in the reliable lines. Great ball.

Radical The Hitter review (with video)
I drilled The Hitter to (hopefully) be my long awaited replacement for my favorite Radical ball of all time, the original Conspiracy. Needless to say, early returns say my wait is now over! The Hitter uses a new core shape and the Utility Solid cover, so you get that big sweeping motion, with shot to shot predictability. The layout used on The Hitter was 50 x 4.5" x 70 to mimic the same one I used on my original Conspiracy and shot 259, 259 right out of the box with it. The Hitter picks up a touch sooner than the Innovator Solid, but more overall hook than the Outer Limits. On a THS, it handles the puddle with ease, and does not react too sensitively to the dry, making it THE benchmark asymmetric ball in your bag. I love the reaction on medium-heavy sport patterns such as Beefy Burrito and Earl Anthony, control with enough hook to get out those pesky corner pins! WWRD is 10-19-2023, but you can pre-order yours now from Bowler Builders Pro Shops.
