I'm glad the women are starting to do ball reviews. It gives a different perspective. Most women are softer and more direct. Less rev rate. So you see the ball's reaction in a different light. Keep up the good work.
It's soooo unique! I don't think you'll regret it, especially when you match up with it somewhere. Hopefully we'll be able to get her on for another video after the US Women's Open 🙏
Really like this ball, I had the front nine, 10 tap in the 10th frame for a 279. Threw it straight around the 6 board. Ball hits hard and very versatile. Love your review with Dasha. Good luck this year.
Subscribed because their accuracy is better than most channels no matter what pattern. A lot of professed skilled reviewers are not accurate in the shots they throw which diminishes the true assessment of the ball exhibited. Video quality is great and not too much speculative chatter. Just results and execution
Valerie says Dasha throws faster and hence straighter. I timed from the release to hitting pins. Valerie consistently hit 2.4 secs, and Dasha 2.29, so minimal speed difference...MAYBE a tenth or so mph. These two seem to be very similar I'd say that valerie plays more in the oil, storing the revs and it snaps back at the end to come into the pocket, and Dasha is in the drier area, loses rotation energy but gets there more with the rollout. That's why they were able to just switch and use each other's foot placement and target boards. their rev rates and balls speeds are almost identical. Would be interesting to see them against each other in a match. both seem pretty consistent. winner would be who makes the adjustment first once the pattern cliffs.
I love this comment, David. Thank you! It's an honor that you said that I seem as consistent as Dasha. She's currently 5th in points and in average on the PWBA Tour 🔥👏 It's also really cool that you timed our ball speeds. I can't wait to get onto a lane with Specto with Dasha and see what our true stats are. Hopefully we will be able to organize that for a video soon 😊
Can we talk about the difference between pros and the rest of us? It is amazing that pro bowlers can completely change their line and shape to hit the pocket. Valerie went six or eight right and struck and both Valerie and Dasha went 9 left from Valerie's first mark and struck. My god.
I feel you, but I used to be sponsored a while back, and the biggest difference is for us “normal” bowlers, we have to spend $300’ish every time a new ball review comes out, whereas sponsored pros get multiple of them for free. So it’s difficult financially. Plus few of us can get lanes reserved with no background noise, proper oil, etc etc.
@@SteveTartar The point of my comment was to appreciate the craft of both bowlers and that craft comes with effort and talent. I have been bowling for wayyyyyy to many years. I have been locally supported but never sponsored by manufactured, so you are up on me there. I have bowled frequently with those that have been. PWBA pros don't get good because they are sponsored, they are so good so they get sponsored. While I agree that, for some, the additional resources help, the resources allow them to work hard and refine their craft. The sponsorship doesn't put in the lifetime of work this takes. Hard work and constant effort have earned them the ability to bowl this good.
Awesome video! Can't wait to get good enough to look at getting a Hammer Effect. I just ordered the original Brunswick Infinity, and currently use the Rhino black, gold, and red (just started bowling this year). I'll have to check if you've done any comparison videos for the new Arctic Vibe or Hammer Raws coming out soon.
Very cool! so glad you started bowling. Since I just started this channel, I've only released 6 full videos and a couple shorts. More to come in the following weeks :)
Great job! How about an Ocean Vibe, Radioactive Vibe, and Arctic Vibe video? Might be cool to show the difference between the pear, solid, and hybrid covers.
Yes, love this suggestion! I will put it on my list. I had an ocean vibe at one point but haven't thrown the other 2, so I'd be curious to see that comparison as well.
Great question! When you move left in general, whether it's only one board or 5+, you're getting your ball more into fresh oil (where no balls have been thrown yet in our case), which causes the ball to skid more and generate a different ball path/angle across the lane. Some balls naturally respond better in oil and some are better for dryer conditions. We made progressive moves left to see how versatile this ball is and holy moly, it really is. We had to slow our speed a little as we moved left to allow it to gain better traction in oil and hook at the right spot, but it was still surprising how far left we were and still striking.
@@bowlwithVALue I saw Dasha just missed the finals this week. Hopefully you will be able to balance family life and get a stop or two in and maybe a major as well. Both of you have excellent games.
Against the Hammer Effect? Because I have another video comparing the GB4 hybrid with the GB5! ruclips.net/video/YUeV7LrraEI/видео.htmlsi=-ZUKKUS1iOQmsKXe
@@bowlwithVALue I agree with you, I switched from 15 to 14 pounds two years ago and I haven’t missed a beat in competitive bowling, it’s been great! Keep up the great bowling! Jim
Totally get it. I was legitimately surprised because honestly more often than not, when I’ve gotten it in on this pattern, it doesn’t strike (usually hits light- 2 pin, weak 10/7…you can check out the other videos). Mostly because it’s not the right ball at the right time. I was shocked also because this ball is a PEARL and hooks in oil. That’s not common. It also didn’t boomerang off the dry like pearls usually do. It’s a very unique ball💜💙
I'm glad the women are starting to do ball reviews. It gives a different perspective. Most women are softer and more direct. Less rev rate. So you see the ball's reaction in a different light. Keep up the good work.
Thank you!! That’s exactly it. I most definitely don’t have a high rev rate or high ball speed 😆
Ditto.
I have been wanting that ball. Love watching you 2.. thank you for sharing.
It's soooo unique! I don't think you'll regret it, especially when you match up with it somewhere.
Hopefully we'll be able to get her on for another video after the US Women's Open 🙏

Wow, still a really great game!
I agree- very versatile. Glad you love your effect and our video 😃 thank you!!
Saddle swap.. That takes me back!
I absolutely love this ball!
I just started rolling the effect going to the radioactive vibe for when it drys up.
Keep the reviews coming! 😊
Nice! sounds like a great combo.
Thank you, we sure plan on it 😃

@@spitfirespeakeasy8978 My pleasure. It's been fun. Not without challenges, but it's worth it :) hopefully they gain some traction!

@@bowlwithVALue that would be cool to watch
Just wrote it down, so I'll get with Dasha and see if we can either do a competition type of video or if we can hook up to SPECTO and get our stats

You're the best, Joe, thank you! I bet you'd be able to do it ;) try it and let me know.

Great chemistry between you two
We sure do have fun together 😄🥰
@@bowlwithVALue you’re both wonderful and I hope you have a great PWBA season
Thank you🥰
Hi val ive been coaching a fellow member of team canada brittney turcotte back in ky usa i love your tempo and long follow thru good vid thanks
Very cool 🤩 she’s lovely and I love her game. thanks for the comment!!
Dasha seems like she was a quirky kid in school that was happy go lucky and was super nice to her peers and would help them out
I think you hit the nail on the head 😄😍

I love the ball, I have 2. One of them is 35x5x30 and the other is 80x4.5.20. One hooks midlane and continues, the other goes long and is angular 👍
Oh wow yes those are 2 totally different layouts 🙌 I bet they compliment each other well
Great job! How about an Ocean Vibe, Radioactive Vibe, and Arctic Vibe video? Might be cool to show the difference between the pear, solid, and hybrid covers.

This is a great video. I have only just discovered your channel. Glad I did from Australia
Thank you! very cool :) we only started it a few weeks ago but we plan to release one video each week on Sundays.
@@bowlwithVALue That's terrific. Good luck with it.
thank you!
Did you have polish on the 3.0, or was that just lane shine?
just lane shine! I have more surface on it currently 🙃
THAT BALL WORKS GREAT. THANKS FOR THE VIDEO.
My pleasure! thanks for the comment!
I love seeing the ladies bowl.
Thanks Michael!
Hopefully both of y’all have success on the PWBA tour this season.
Thank you! So far Dasha finished 6th in the first event 👏 ....I don't have plans to bowl any stops as of right now, but that may be changing.....☺️🙏
@@bowlwithVALue I saw Dasha just missed the finals this week. Hopefully you will be able to balance family life and get a stop or two in and maybe a major as well. Both of you have excellent games.
I saw that too. So close!
I appreciate that 🥰🙏 we’ll see what we can do!
Such a good ball!
Like to see the gb5 comparison
Against the Hammer Effect? Because I have another video comparing the GB4 hybrid with the GB5!
ruclips.net/video/YUeV7LrraEI/видео.htmlsi=-ZUKKUS1iOQmsKXe
Dasha, fresh off of her win against Brunsnick with her Hammer Effect, sets her sights on her next target.
haha it wasn't really a competition with her and I on this one, but it was fun!
Great video
Thank you! more like this to come :)
Fun! I'm going to have Carol Norman drill me one
Sounds good!
Awesome video:) Always like seeing Dasha and hearing her funny personality lol
Are you planning to do a review on the new Arctic Vibe, Valerie?
She’s the best!
Maybe! I love the look of that new ball. We shall see 😊
@@bowlwithVALue 😊 Yay! And yes she certainly is!
Great video Valerie. I see no difference in hitting power between a 14 & 15 lb. But then of course, you’re a great bowler! Jim
I think it's total preference -- I have been throwing 14lbs for about 9 years and I think it has made a massive difference in my game!
@@bowlwithVALue I agree with you, I switched from 15 to 14 pounds two years ago and I haven’t missed a beat in competitive bowling, it’s been great! Keep up the great bowling! Jim
🙌🙌 love this!
You ladies are super cool and you bowl your butts off. Good vid and good bowling to you both.
😆 hopefully we don’t bowl them off literally haha
😊
😊
About started in the gutter to make that straight ball happen
I’m not sure if I understand what you’re referring to ☹️🧐
My only issue with this video is how surprised they look when it holds in and hooks from outside it’s a house shot not a challenge or sport pattern.
Totally get it. I was legitimately surprised because honestly more often than not, when I’ve gotten it in on this pattern, it doesn’t strike (usually hits light- 2 pin, weak 10/7…you can check out the other videos).

It also didn’t boomerang off the dry like pearls usually do. It’s a very unique ball💜💙
Both hit the same
I agree 😎 same hitting power from each of them!
Great video
thank you!
