I know guys who like the VIBE core.... (core question)
« on: October 14, 2016, 11:55:26 AM »
I'm starting to like it myself.

(original V2 core and light bulb with long neck ones were/are my favorite lol)

I have the Blue hammer and after adjusting the surface, I've been producing a lot of 250+ scores when used. It has a better hitting power than the Naturals I had (2). Very predictable and the margin of error is as wide as Susan's a....

anyway, what is your favorite core and why?

The Vibe core just works well. Everything in that entire line has been good products.

combined with the 5K triz pad and the strong layout 4x4x2 with flare increasing weigh hole down the val. The ball gives me an even some times rounder shape than naturals.

I'd like to get the Viral solid, but I'll have an over lap - I'm still have the Cobra in mind for my second shift leagues.

For those that might know me... I LOVE the Vibe core and haven't had a bad Vibe / Viral matchup... it is one of those cores that matches up for all styles of bowlers. Even with the modified Vibe core in the Burgundy & Blue Hammer, they provide a consistent ball motion that is reads all 3 parts of the lane effectively.

I took my Viral Solid down to 2000 to be my most hooking Vibe/Viral to date... and the Burgundy is second to that one... If you have a higher rev rate or high ball speed... you NEED the Burgundy Hammer... the react-a-thane coverstock blends out the over/under motion, yet still offers a nice continuation backend motion. This ball is very underrated for many flatter tournament or over/under house patterns. It blends out the pattern. This is my favorite piece with the Vibe core due to the smooth reaction that I see with this ball for a variety of lane patterns that I see in tournaments.

Hope this helps and if you have any questions, please let me know!
