Nirvana, Mastermind, Guru Supreme
« on: January 16, 2016, 11:31:34 PM »
Greetings Everyone,
 I am looking to get a "Heavy Oil" ball since my house has actually been putting down some oil now, anyway, I dont need a ball that is 'The biggest Hooking Ball' on earth but I do want a ball that handles med-heavy to heavy oil with no problem.

So out of these 3 balls, Nirvana, Mastermind, Guru Supreme, which ball and drilling would you suggest for a stroker/tweener? since my house has been laying out a lot of oil in all my 3 leagues the right side at the break point usually has massive carry down from all the open play since my house allows open play all the way up to when we start (imagine kids and plastic balls).

My Pro shop has the Guru Supreme but I have been reading some pretty good comments about the Nirvana but I am not sure if the Nirvana is a heavy oil ball where the Mastermind, and Guru Supreme is. Right now I am leaning towards the Guru Supreme so for all of you peeps who have rolled these balls please leave your comments...Thanks, Jake

Nirvana is above the Mastermind, not sure where the Supreme fits

I haven't thrown the Supreme but have the other two.  The Nirvana hooks sooner and handles more oil than the Mastermind.  We have drilled the Supremes for customers and they seem to get a bit more length than the Nirvana and also cover a few more boards.  I think in your case I would go with the Nirvana.  If you feel you need a ball that starts hooking super early the Guru Master may also be an option.

Guru Master would be the best choice When the Brunswick boys on tour need a hook monster that is very even rolling thats the one they go to

I hUnruly.ave a Mastermind, Thug Unruly, and a Supreme. Of course the Supreme is newer but is the strongest of the 3. Last two nights of bowling I started out with the Unruly and was leaving 7 pins so switched to Supreme and started carrying while standing in the same spot. Mastermind was slightly weaker than the
