Description: Get Twisted! The Twisted Fury expands and upgrades the Fury line by introducing both a new core and new coverstock to the market. The Twisted Fury is comprised of an asymmetric version of the Torsionâ„¢Core and the EnMotionâ„¢ Reactive coverstock.
Coverstock: The Twisted Fury introduces EnMotion Reactive coverstock. More aggressive in the mid-lane and back-end than High Octane, EnMotion Reactive delivers tremendous mid-lane recovery and forgiveness combined with plenty of back-end ball reaction
Core: Brunswick has added a new twist to the Torsion core concept by producing an Asymmetric version for the Twisted Fury. The symmetric version of the Torsion core used in the original Fury was based on triangular geometry. The Asymmetric version is based on a six-sided polygon. The inner core of a 16-pound Twisted Fury weighs in at 6.36 pounds, resulting in a medium RG that helps push the aggressive EnMotion coverstock down the lane. Brunswick has put a new twist on core design so you can twist it up better on the lanes.

Twisted #1

4 3/4" PIN to PAP, Pin below fingers, 55 degree MB. OOB finish.

This layout for me wants to roll right away and stand up in the pocket. This enables me to square up and let the cover glide through the front. The response to friction is quick for a strong move to the pocket.

I bowled on a 43' modified FIQ pattern and after a few games of play I was able to use the Twisted. I couldn't use it early with the box finish and long oil, but after some break down I could move deep and use the length for pull and the break down for room right.

Twisted #2

5" PIN to PAP, Pin above fingers, 45 degree MB.

Compared to my 5" Blast Zone 70 degree, the Twisted is an animal! This is the hardest backending Brunswick Assym I have thrown!! With the 45 degree we had to put a hole regardless to bring it back to legal. I threw it before hand to determine where it should go and this ball consistently drove to the 8 through the pins. We put the hole on my PAP and it didn't affect the reaction.

(UPDATE) January 2, 2008

Twisted #3 RICO

Pin in center of grip with the MB at 45 degrees.

Compared to Twisted #1, this layout is 100 times better! Like I mentioned above, #1 stands up to the pocket quickly, and this RICO has a much stronger roll and is continuous through the pins. This ball lets me stay to the right and strike. The break point window is much longer than #1. #3 is OOB finish. This layout matches up perfectly to the ball for me.

I have been experimenting in trying to find a layout/ball combo to stay to the right and still carry the ten. I have found it in this ball with the RICO.

Layout - 4 1/2" pin to PAP, below fingers, and MB at 45 degrees. Balance hole. Factory finish.

I'm not a high rev bowler. Not even close. I'm usually around 16 mph and try to play straighter as my first option.

This ball has 9 games on it now, and I'm comfortable recommending it to anyone who wants a ball to clear the heads with EASE and finish hard.  It's a little shiny for me to play on wet, except for the extreme outside line where I prefer, anyway. So far, carry has been exceptional.

If I put a decent release (because sometimes I don't) this ball is sure to start reading and finishing with authority.  I may try it at 2000 abralon just to see how much more room I have.  Brunswick and BTM have both said that "the ball rolls great no matter what finish we put on it."  

I will try to remember to update this review if/when I take a little shine off. I have been very happy with other Brunswick asymmetrical core balls and anticipate that this one may be at the top of the list the more I throw it.

On a less serious note, mine has lots of silver with maybe 25% burgundy and 25% black.  Some of the guys have said it makes them dizzy watching this one go down the lane... Who says there's no defense in bowling?

UPDATE: Took the cover down to 1000 then back up to 2000 abralon on the advice of Ric Hamlin.  The ball still finishes nicely, but gives me more room for error.  When I threw it on a lane with some carry-down from open play it was still able to finish, and on fresh league shot with plenty of oil and clean back-ends the ball was still great, just had to make a tiny move left each game
for carry.

UPDATE #2: Applied Bean's Secret Sauce and the ball was the strongest back end move yet. I will probably leave it here as it is a nice compliment to my Pearl Fury and Fury solid. Do NOT hesitate to try this ball!

Lane Carter, Strike Zone Pro Shops - Salt Lake City, Utah

Stats:
Speed: 17-18
RPM: 350-400
Tilt: low-mid

Drilled 5" from PAP above fingers with a 45* PSA.

Only thrown it for a couple of games but all I can say is wow. I have not seen another brunswick ball give the same look on the lanes. It was about 2 boards weaker than my Pearl Fury(4.5" below) and 2 boards stronger than my Smokin Inferno(6" above). It skids through the oil, picks up in the midlane, and snaps off the dry. It reacts to the dry a little more slowly than the Pearl but gives a stronger movement. It will be a great piece for me when the Pearl is too much or I can't get deep with it. It revs up in the midlane giving it the control to destroy a THS, and mine has! I've only been able to average about 225-230 with it so far, hopefully it will pick up the pace! It will definitely be a go-to ball on patterns between 36-40ft. and should be in everyone's bag.

I drilled mine out today, and am very impressed.  I was initially concerned about the higher rg, and relatively mild differential.  However my first impression is of an almost perfect core shell matchup.  The shell is clearly stronger than Octane, to the point that it needs the higher rg to store some energy.  

I can play the Twisted in almost the same area of the lane as my much more rolly Pearl Fury. However, the roll pattern and break point are enough different that I can expect a difference in carry from the two.  Since carry is my main reason for making a ball change, rather than trying to acquire or reacquire the pocket, these two balls should become very good compliments to each other

My Twisted Fury is awesome, definitely my benchmark ball. The ball loves a THS. My house, which is Harley's Bowl in Simi Valley, rarely puts out a high volume of oil. Me being a stroker/tweener, I dont like playing outside of my comfort zone. This ball gives the best look out of all 4 balls that I have.

Track diameter is 10 1/2.
PAP is measured at 5 1/4 over and 3/8" up.
Average ball speed (foul line to head pin) is 16 mph.
Axis rotation is typically 90 degrees
Initial rev rate is typically 300 rpm, "Tweener"
Lane Condition and Pattern:
Bowlero Lanes, HPL 9000 Panel. Oil Pattern: Fairly Flat condition from edge board to edge board, semi clean backends.

Review:
Great colors in the Ball, so far very well recieved by the customers in my shop. I love the ball for drier conditions. On Oil the ball tends to labor unless you have alot of hand, it is alot more readable than previous Brunswick Skid Snap balls. Great ball for slower speeds or heavy hand releases, recovers well from an inside angle and hits very hard. Brunswick has done their job on this coverstock, I expect to see other balls come from them with the same coverstock in the future. Thanks for reading my review.

Compared against the Fury  Hi Octane Cover stock,
The Asymmetric core design  matched with an EnMotion Core  combined
 With an Reactive cover stock.
The Twisted Fury
Is More aggressive in the mid-lane and back-end than High Octane, EnMotion Reactive
Twisted fury has a control predictable midland roller with great hitting power
This Ball is at it’s best on medium patterns
Reaction Characteristics”
Out of the Box: With its Rough Buff finish, the Twisted Fury will provide excellent mid-lane recovery and a strong continuous back-end reaction.
If your Twisted Fury goes too long:
Dull the surface with 800-grit or rougher abrasive to get the Twisted Fury to roll sooner and increase its hooking action.
If your Twisted Fury hooks too early:
Polish your Twisted Fury with Brunswick’s Factory Finish High Gloss Polish.

To bring your Twisted Fury back to its original factory finish, sand the surface to 400-grit then use Brunswick’s Factory Rough Buff Finish.

Very predictable reaction with the ball not jumping too much or too little.
 Creates some  forgiveness area on the lane.
Controlled able Midlane will  Make tackling tougher lane condition much easier
