Intense is CLEAN!
« on: February 10, 2005, 02:39:26 PM »
Boy this ball can scoot down the lane.  Of course mine is still drilled for a righty which for me for my lefty coordinates that means it is about a 6 X 7 1/2.

What is the box finish for this ball?  Highly polished means what(ie grit?)?

Have others found this to be one of the longest cleanest balls you ever threw?

LL,

It's clean thru the heads, depending, of course, but your drilling probably killed any flare, at least, normal early flare, and reduced the backend. Again, if you've got a 15 lb-er, the starting RG is close to 2.6, which is fairly HIGH! It's going to be clean EVEN with a leveraged pin position.

Redrill yours normal (3.5 - 5" pin to PAP), then tell us the power of the hit!

FYI yes, standard B'wick finish: 400 grit sand followed by their own high gloss polish (which works very well on any Brunswick ball, thank you very much). I sanded mine to 2000 grit then repolished it; still tons of hitting power on lighter oiled lanes. Now I'm redrilling mine to move pin from 4" to closer to 5" from PAP.

Yes. Gets down the lane nice, but doesnt snap super hard. Its more of a controlled hard arc for me.

Buddiesproshop and Bowlersparidise both sell it, its 9.99 for a small bottle and 30 bux for a larger bottle.  Brunswick says the local pro shop should have it, im gonna get some because after bowling with my Impulse it has become dull and hooks way to early on anything i bowl on right now.

:JACK: what kinda ball clenaer on activator?  I need some of that also cuz my impulse gets incredably dirty. :JACK:
