Quantum Evo Solid | Evolution SolidSolid Reactive | QCS-12Asymmetric |
Dual Angle
35° × 4.5” × 35° |
Strongest ball I currently own. I am quite surprised with how much this ball moves down lane even though it is a solid. Easy choice for me if I want to move left and open the lane up. |

I feel this ball gets overlooked but this is a really good option for me to go to. One of my more versatile pieces and is a great option to go to after the Quantum Evo Solid. I can keep it in the oil and the ball will not over hook on me for it. I have also found success with this ball playing straighter and staying a little further right which is where I feel this ball's strength is truly found. |

As someone who has never owned a Black Widow up until this, I am extremely impressed with how easily this core rolls for an asymmetric. It does not have a massive jump down lane, but I have never found a breaking point for this ball to where it will not hook or hit flat. This ball will be extremely difficult to replace. |

Counter Attack Solid | Ai-20 SolidSolid Reactive | Rack Attack 2Symmetric |
Dual Angle
115° × 4.25” × 45° |
Another versatile ball for me. This is my first ball out of the bag when I go to my Wednesday league because I can easily control the motion but it also allows me to open the lane up before going to something a little bit cleaner when I start seeing carry down. This is another interesting ball to go to when the asymmetrics are too much ball but I still need to pick up the pattern. |

Cutting Edge Hybrid | Relativity Hook HybridHybrid Reactive | Cutting Edge Low RGSymmetric |
Dual Angle
90° × 4.25” × 30° |
My first ball that I bought after switching back to Brunswick. Think a Melee Jab but slightly earlier because this is a hybrid cover instead of the pearl cover. It is not as early as the Knock Out's even though the core is the same. |

Dual Angle
30° × 4.63” × 30° |
This ball was specifically chosen for my bag to replace the Motiv Venom Panic. The main difference between the two is that the Intel is slightly cleaner but it has a little more backend. The first ball I got drilled with a 4 and 5/8 pin to PAP which I feel is my sweet spot. This ball became an instant favorite after getting it drilled and seeing the motion and power the ball has. |

Bonus Pearl | ForgedPearl Reactive | BonusSymmetric |
Dual Angle
30° × 4.5” × 30° |
My current benchmark ball in my arsenal. I didn't know what this ball was at first for me because I was not used to a pearl with a surface like this. After some experimentation, I found this ball fits perfectly as a benchmark for anything and anywhere I go whether I am on a sport pattern or going somewhere unfamiliar. I feel this should be called the Bonus Hybrid considering how early this ball reads for a pearl. Definitely is a ball I don't go back to after the first 2 games or so. |

I mean...do I really need to explain? Also, urethane is, in my opinion, essential in anyone's arsenal. |
