Brunswick Rattler! Maybe underappreciated
« on: September 22, 2016, 11:59:44 AM »
So I have had this laying around with a thumb hole that was not working for me.

Cleaned it up last night, went to my wet dry house shot and it along with every other ball was hooking off the wall after my two shot warm up!

All of sudden got some speed and got appropriately deep and this old polished war horse started really striking.  Nothing gig but I see some potential.

Readable smooth strong midlane with a slightly angular reaction!  Like it better than Infernos I have seen and my Absolute Inferno!  Also, better than my Pink Karma with Activator Plus.  The Karma really grabby on our Wet drys!

Surprised this wasn't a big seller!  Of course I have always thought these Activators looked better for lefties!  At least the  original activator pearl and solids!  Like my Strike Zone still hooking quite smooth!

Oh by the way drilling approx 4 1/4 pin to PAP and stacked, just on the upper corner of the ring!

Regards,

Luckylefty

I remember a handful of people comparing it to the Inferno reaction

I seem to get a little more backend out of this rocket core!

Had a friend(very good) A little faster than me a little straighter still using his Inferno till last year!

He looked very good with it...some days it seemed to lack backend other days...just enough.

It may have been old and I know it was very loved and used!

I know the Rattler I have was VERY used but at this sharp wet dry center still plenty!

Regards,
