Title: Bounty Hunter Pearl Video!
Post by: beachcomberjones on November 18, 2009, 04:14:51 AM
Not My video:

Looks like this is the first video posted up on youtube. Lots of revs to say the least, looks like a THS. Watch towards the end of the video were they zoom in more on the ball reaction. You can really see here, that the ball isn't snappy and over reacting, Very smooth pearl.

Excellent video!  I'm impressed and actually surprised at how smooth it is up the outside for such a strong pearl.

BTW, what are you doing swinging a sarge easter drill like that!!! =) I'd hate to be the tendons in your fingers and forearm!  

Thanks for posting!

Does it have a 3% particle load like the Bounty Hunter solid?

I could be wrong, but it looks like the guy who works at the proshop I frequent.  If that's true I know the house he's bowling in, pretty typical for Brunswick Zones, THS, med-light oil.

I think the hook-set reaction he's getting is more because of his roll.  Lots of revs and forward roll.  Not to mention some of the crazy angles he's playing!

Ya ive seen the person bowl before he wears normal pair of shoes to bowl in. And dont think it rolled out it just looks smoother since he has it at 4000 abralon so it wont transition so hard off the spot with his rev rate

Not really sure what the particle load would be, but I've heard from Eric Thomas himself that this ball has a very similar cover to that found on the Reaction Ricochet. Holoflex and TEC 2 mixed, I believe...

J-Mac...I think Eric said the reaction shape you get should mimic the Ricochet. The coverstock itself if quite a bit different from the Ricochet.
