Thoughts on Brunswick Warp Zone
« on: April 19, 2005, 03:29:22 PM »
Looking for a ball that will track better in heavier oil.  Thoughts on a Warp Zone.  Haven't bought a ball in years and years.  Is this a newer ball or older ball.  Is this better or worse than say a Nemesis?
Thanks in advance

I've got both, and the warp zone will handle a lot more oil out of the box. The nemesis can handle its fair share, but if your on actual heavy oil, the warp zone would be better.

DO NOT BUY the Warp Zone if you roll on HEAVY Oil.  My league is on heavy oil, and one oof my teammates bought the Warp Zone, it will not catch, react or anything.  The only thing that happens is it skids straight as you throw it.


Mine sure doesn't...how is your teammate's WZ drilled?

I'll bet my life it's set up stacked leverage with a huge hole and it stand up as soon as it hits the lane and doesn't go anywhere.  The Warp is a Heavy Oil machine.

Mine has the pin above the fingers, with the PSA in the strong position, no XH.  I've yet to find a condition too oily for it.  Thinking of polishing it, just so I can use it *somewhere.*

I have three that I have used from time to time. It is versatile in my experience. With the proper layout and surface prep it can handle everything from fresh medium to heavy oil.

I have my Warp Zone drilled label leverage; haven't used it in a while since there's never an Exxon Valdez during league play but it's great on carry down
