- Rhino Pro Gold

First Impressions
With the Rhino Pro Gold, Brunswick brings a fascinating new development to market that impresses above all with its exceptional length and late reaction. Inside works the dynamic Rhino Core, which with a 2.55 RG and a 0.038 differential ensures a very clean motion through the front part of the lane. The pearl reactive cover is specifically tuned to store the ball's energy extremely efficiently. The surface, with a polished finish, supports this characteristic massively by letting the ball glide effortlessly through the heads without building friction early. Visually it's a real eye-catcher and immediately conveys that this model was designed primarily for later, sharper direction changes. The technical match between core and cover here is extremely harmonious and purposeful.
Comparison
Comparing the Rhino Pro Gold with the Brunswick Rhino, the glaring differences in backend reaction stand out immediately. The Brunswick Rhino tends to read a bit earlier, while the Rhino Pro Gold holds its energy a decisive fraction longer and then reacts noticeably more aggressively to the dry area. That characteristic makes it the perfect complement in your arsenal when the Rhino starts losing energy in the pocket or entering too flat. Although both balls have a similar orientation toward lighter oil patterns, the Rhino Pro Gold offers a noticeably more dynamic angle. It's the ideal solution for situations in which the Rhino no longer develops enough drive, since it generates the necessary entry angle.
On the Lanes
This ball shows its greatest strength when the lane has already been played in a bit and the transition has clearly set in. It needs a certain amount of friction in the backend to develop its characteristic hook, which delivers maximum, explosive carry. When the boards in the front part of the lane dry up, it allows you to move systematically further inside and attack the pocket from a much deeper angle. It's very well suited to medium to dry conditions and an excellent choice if you're looking for a clean, quick-responding surface. With its forgiving nature on shots missed outside, it should keep your scores stable at a very high level even in the late stages of a tournament.
