Wow, this is such a great ball. This is probably my best Brunswick purchase to date and I didn't think I would ever say that after my experiences with my TWO Smash Zones and my Wild Ride. The Rattler is all about versatility (sp?). I am throwing two handed (since my wrist hurts to bowl with single hand) with probably 500+ rpms and I can manipulate this ball to make it do anything. Give it a bit of forward roll, you get a monster. Turn it a little bit on the side and the ball easily pushes through the front better, enough to pound the pocket. Continuation through the pins is all about this ball. I can't tell you how many shots just drove like a truck. All of them I suppose!
If the DiamondBack is anything like the Rattler, i'll most likely pick up one of those. I already got at least one more buyer for a Rattler today who usually throws Ebo/Hammer.
Thanks goes to Beans for talking me into a layout that I was too stubborn to use on this ball (just a simple 4 x 5, 1:30 label-ish. I didn't want this ball to do anything crazy) and thanks goes to Brunswick for another great piece. I'm still catching up on the rest of them!
