- Revolver

First Impressions
The Revolver from Brunswick is an absolute prime example of control and perfect readability on the lane. Driven by the proven Revolver core, this ball offers very balanced and harmonious core dynamics with a 2.52 RG and a 0.050 differential. Combined with the precisely tuned solid reactive cover, the result is a surface that interacts with the oil in an extremely predictable and consistent manner. The 2000 Siaair finish purposefully ensures that the ball picks up friction early and controls the midlane securely, without ever appearing unpredictable. Even the outward appearance conveys great stability and reliability, qualities that carry over seamlessly into the actual ball motion through the heads. The overall construction is designed to give the bowler clear feedback about the condition of the lane at all times.
Comparison
Looking at the Revolver in direct comparison to the Storm Phaze II, its much stronger orientation toward control and predictability becomes very clear. The Storm Phaze II does offer a somewhat more angular motion off the backend, but it can react too sensitively or overreact on difficult oil patterns. This is exactly where the Revolver scores, with its steady, smooth and continuous arc toward the pins. Where the Phaze II tends to miss the breakpoint, the Revolver delivers the traction needed in the pocket to stay safely on line. It closes the gap between extremely strong balls and weaker models absolutely ideally. For bowlers who appreciate the Phaze II but are looking for a calmer, safer option, this is the logical choice.
On the Lanes
On the lane, this ball proves to be the perfect companion for medium to heavy oil patterns, particularly on typical house shots or demanding sport patterns. It allows you to move safely through the boards and develops a strong but wonderfully round hook that leads straight into the pocket. The smooth reaction to the friction in the backend produces outstanding carry, since the ball transfers a great deal of energy into the pins instead of wasting it prematurely through an overly sharp change of direction. Once the transition sets in, the ball can still be used very effectively with small adjustments to your line before a change becomes necessary. It is a true benchmark for anyone who wants to build their game methodically, and should deliver consistently high scores.
