The Brunswick Revolver is going to be released on July 12, 2010. You can pre-order yours now thru bowlingball.com and be the first to have one in your bowling center.

It's time to shoot the lights out with the Brunswick Revolver!

ConneXion Grip Coverstock
The Revolver utilizes ConneXion Grip an improved version of ConneXion coverstock.
ConneXion Grip incorporates a new formula to increase the footprint size of the coverstock which improves mid-lane and back-end traction.

Jack Core
The Jack core was designed as a low RG symmetric core with a high differential. The low RG engages in the mid-lane assisting in ball motion, and the high differential increases track flare potential giving the ball more opportunity to grip the back-end while using standard layouts and interchangeable thumb sleeves.

Ball Motion
With its 4,000 Siaair Micro Pad finish, the Revolver will provide good length with a strong continuous back-end reaction that matches up on medium to oily lane conditions for a wide range of bowling styles.

Reaction Setup
The Revolver can be drilled using the standard drilling techniques developed for symmetric bowling balls.

Lightweight Engineering
The unique core shape of each Brunswick ball is used for weights from 14 to 16 pounds. This approach to lightweight ball engineering provides bowlers with consistent ball reaction characteristics across this weight range. The same drilling instructions can be used for 12 and 13-pound balls. This is because Brunswick uses a generic core shape with an RG differential that is close enough to the 14-16 pound shape.

The Brunswick Revolver is currently selling for $108.99 on bowlingball.com and rates a 207.9 on the bowlingball.com Perfect Scale™.

The Brunswick C (System)4.5 will give more length than the Brunswick C (System)3.5 and should give a smooth reaction on the back-end

CFT v4.5 Coverstock

CFT v4.5 is the next progression in Chemical Friction Technology. The CFT v4.5 coverstock has a lower friction factor than CFT 3.5 which improves length through the heads and mid-lane without
sacrificing the quick response and improved traction on the back-end.

I-Block Symmetric Core

The new I-Block Symmetric core was created by modifying the original asymmetric I-Block core (which has a symmetric base and an asymmetric flip block) to have an asymmetric base. By creating an asymmetric base with an asymmetric flip block on perpendicular axes the two asymmetries cancel each other out making the core shape symmetric. The core shape was also thinned and stretched to increase the RG min while maintaining the overall differential.

Ball Motion

With its Rough Buff finish, the C(System) v4.5 will offer a lower friction factor with similar response time to friction alternative to the C(System) 3.5. The new C(System) v4.5 is best used on medium to oily lane conditions when you need to use a breakpoint further down the lane with a quick response motion to increase pin carry.

Reaction Setup

The C(System) v4.5 can be drilled using the standard drilling techniques developed for symmetric bowling balls.

Manufacturer description of the new Brunswick C (System)3.5:

Chemical Friction Technology – Developed with Carmen Salvino, the Brunswick C (System)3.5 is the next evolution in Chemical Friction Technology.

Let the science of friction improve your game!

Coverstock
CFT 3.5 is the next evolution in Chemical Friction Technology. The CFT 3.5 coverstock has a higher friction factor than the original CFT 2.5, which quickens response time, improves down lane traction and increases the overall hook.

Core: I-Block
The new I-Block core was engineered specifically for the CFT 2.5 coverstock to create maximum forgiveness, strong entry angels along with versatile drilling layouts.

Reaction Characteristics
Ball Motion – With its 4000-grit micro pad finish, the Brunswick C (System)3.5 offers a higher friction factor and increased response time to friction alternative than the original C(System) 2.5. The new C(System)3.5 is best used on medium-oily to oily lane conditions when a quicker response motion is needed to increase entry angle to the pocket.

The Brunswick C (System)3.5 has a world wide release date scheduled for January 25, 2010

Brunswick is coming out with another new ball in their advance performance line in November. It is the Brunswick Diamondback. Here is more information on the Brunswick Diamondback


Coverstock

Activator Solid Coverstock: The Diamondback™ is the first ball with Activator Solid coverstock available at the Advanced Performance price point. The original Activator coverstock used on the Diamondback is a proven formula that provides strong downlane recovery, longevity of ball reaction, and unprecedented durability with superior resistance to cracking.

Core

Low RG Rocket Core:
The Diamondback uses the proven Brunswick multi-sided Rocket™ core system, providing a low RG core that when combined with the original Activator coverstock produces a ball reaction that is unmatched at the Advanced Performance price point. Clean through the front with an aggressive move at the breakpoint, the Diamondback gives amazing bang for the buck. There isn’t another ball in this class that’s even close.

Reaction Characteristics

Ball Motion:
With its 2,000 Siaair Micro Pad finish, the Diamondback will provide good length with a strong continuous backend reaction that matches up on medium to oily lane conditions for a wide range of bowling styles.

Reaction Setup:
The Diamondback can be drilled using the standard drilling techniques developed for symmetric bowling balls. Please visit www.brunswickbowling.com/balls to view the drilling instructions for specific reaction characteristics and layout details.

Brunswick has a new ball being release sometime in November. It is the Brunswick Wild Card. It is the newest release in their High Performance line. Here is some information on the Brunswick Wild Card.


Coverstock:
The Wild Card utilizes ConneXion™ coverstock known for its unbelievable traction response from foul line to head pin. The aggressive connection of the Wild Card to the lane surface inspires confidence in the ball reaction that allows bowlers to play the lanes the way they want to.

Core:
The ultra low RG Paragon™ core was designed with two intentions. First, lower the RG to create a faster revving core that will provide improved mid-lane traction. And second, raise the RG differential to increase the track flare potential which will generate more overall hook with standard layouts and the use of interchangeable thumb sleeves.

Reaction Characteristics

Ball Motion:
With its 2,000 Siaair Micro Pad finish, the Wild Card will provide good length with a strong continuous backend reaction that matches up on medium to oily lane conditions for a wide range of bowling styles.

Reaction Setup: The Wild Card can be drilled using the standard drilling techniques developed for symmetric bowling balls. Please visit www.brunswickbowling.com/balls to view the drilling instructions for specific reaction characteristics and layout details.
