The Matrix I and Matrix II balls have produced tour titles for the Ebonite staff and trophies aplenty for serious bowlers. So what can we say about a new Big Wheel Matrix III? Only one thing: clear some more space on the mantle for more trophies. How can we be so sure of success with the new ball? The Big Wheel ultra-rigid Reactive Resin has a texture that penetrates oil better than any previous Matrix ball. Put together with the proven BOMBS AWAY™ core, and you're got balls that have to be thrown to be believed. How effective is this new Big Wheel Reactive Resin? Listen to this: with the new Trimax™ III, the amount of hook from 42 to 60 feet, is a whopping 16%-25% more than with the Trimax I and II. That produces an 8%-11% increased entry angle over the Trimax I and II. Power? It's conquer inside angles like never before. As for Matrix TPS™ III balls, bowlers get the same early revving as with the TPS I, the same great backend particle power of the TPS II, combining for a 6%-8% increase in hook from 42 to 60 feet and a 4%-6% increased entry angle over TPS I and II. These numbers tell a simple story: if you're loved the combination of predictability, control, and power with the Matrix I and II, you're going to love the increased power with the Matrix III. You're heard of catching lightning in a bottle. We've caught it and put it in a ball.
