Title: Brunswick Intense Inferno
Post by: dead locked on July 18, 2004, 08:47:47 AM: I got this ball in Vegas and it was drilled by the Brunswick crew. The pin is 1/2 inch below the ring finger with the Cg slightly kicked out to the right without a weight hole. The Intense is very clean through the heads which saves energy for the backend reaction. Its natural breakpoint reaction is a sharp turn or snap. The layout is an excellent control and carry drilling.

Posting the shot is a beautiful thing with the Intense. Bowlers from several lanes down were coming to watch the swirled colors blend at the breakpoint. My friend Bryant has the same span and asked to use my ball on the tournament pairs. After a very good set, he asked the pro shop owner to order him one to copy mine. I love my original Inferno and this Intense is also a winner.

So get INTENSE, and get PAID...

--------------------

Most internet places have its price the same as the other Infernos. So, it's a premium price ball. I have found no relationship between ball price and high performance, yet.

Post by: fiber_cut on July 19, 2004, 03:08:16 PM: The ball actually gets released to the proshops on 8/1 I already have mine from vegas as well and the ball is fantastic. But I still think the Ultimate Inferno is a better ball.

Post by: OldBowler on July 22, 2004, 10:26:56 AM: Am still using my Inferno and averaging 220 in a Summer league. Has anyone had a chance to compare the Intense Inferno to the Inferno on the same lane conditions yet?

Post by: mumzie on July 22, 2004, 12:13:05 PM: I don't have one (yet), but saw a friend throwing one last night. I don't know if he could have used the inferno playing the line he was playing last night, but geez- the intense was incredible. He said that it really hit a little TOO hard for him...
Whatever that means.

Post by: LadyW on August 06, 2004, 01:50:37 AM: Just ordered an Intense from a pro shop that was highly recommended and I'm trying for the first time. Cost was $185. including grips and slug. In addition, pro shop owner threw in a bottle of ball cleaner and a free 1/2 hour lesson.

I think that's a super deal. He's obviously not in it for the money. Super nice guy.

Post by: BowlersAidProShop-Wells on August 06, 2004, 02:33:23 AM: He made about 53 bucks for his labor and the lesson and his margin on the ball, so I'd say that was a Super Great deal.
