Core- Tiered Hexagon      Coverstock- HK22 Savvy Hook Hybrid (NEW)
A ball gets overlooked sometimes and one of those was the Brunswick Endeavor (02/02/2024). It introduced the Tiered Hexagon core. With its cover, it provided a clean and quick angular motion. Using the same core and now wrapping it with the new HK22 Savvy Hook Hybrid. What you’ll see is still clean but an earlier motion with great continuation. This one keeps coming. We don’t see it as the first ball out of your bag (unless you bowl on higher friction surfaces), but more of a transition piece that you can stay in longer when you get into it. Slower speed players can use this who would like some motion without getting too angular at straighter angles. If you at a bowler who is new and confused with all the tech, the Crown Victory may be a great choice to start and build. I wouldn’t recommend this ball for bowlers just starting. For those bowlers, take a look at the Brunswick Twist and Rhino series’. All the tech is here with DynamiCore and D.O.T. This is new at this price point which makes it a phenomenal value and performance piece.

Would everyone here consider the Crown Victory to be a good replacement for the Hazmat? My son has had the Hazmat in his bag for the last 2 years, but is the last 14lb ball in his bag that needs to go. He already has a solid/control piece (Envy Tour), Pearl (Effect), Urethane (overseas BW Widow Urethane Black), he needs something to blend out the lanes, which is what the Hazmat would do. Hammer doesn't have anything currently symmetric filling that fills that void that isn't close to being discontinued in the next 5 months, and if I went with something like a BW 2.0 Hybrid, his entire bag except for his spare ball (Hammer True Blood) would be asymmetric.

So would the Crown Victory be a good replacement, or even a step up from the Hazmat?

BL.

Crown Victory would be a step down from Hazmat, cleaner and sharper. Assuming you're talking about the original hybrid and not the solid, that ball was definitely a little unique.

Ethos Hybrid kinda fits the bill, it's always seemed to blend more than others. Otherwise you're looking at something like the Stealth Mode, a Super Cuda, or maybe a No Doubt with the shine removed
