  • This is my first time throwing a Messenger ball ever! I never had one in juniors and I didn't drill the previous 2. What better way to try one than with the OG look of the Black/Gold! Updated with PowerCOR and HK22 Reflex Pearl, the best of old school look and new school technology!

    I have collaborated with Inside Bowling to design some t-shirts and here they are! Sport some OG BrunsNick gear, check out the link!
    www.insidebowl...
    With the help of SPECTO data, it'll help tell the story about reaction shape, overall hook and continuation through the pins. Here are the SPECTO data points used and definition of each term:
    Launch Speed - Speed measured off the hand.
    Entry Speed - Speed measured at the pins. (What you'd see on your home center MPH screens)
    Rev Rate - Revolutions Per Minute (RPM)
    Launch Angle - The angle the ball traveled the first 10 feet.
    Break Point Position - Board at which the ball was at its outermost position.
    Total Hook - Total number of boards the ball crosses on the way to the pins.
    Hook Power - Number of boards the ball hooked based from the True Breakpoint.
    Entry Angle - The angle of the ball between 51 and 55 feet.
    Impact Angle - The angle of the ball between 57 and 59.5 feet.
    Pin Deck Exit - Ball position at the end of the pin deck.

    Looks like I could use something like that all night on my center's THS. I prefer to move prior to quickly changing balls. Can't stand changing balls mid match unless I absolutely have too. Frequent corner pins are the only thing that makes me change.

    I picked up the red/blue messenger pearl earlier this year and have been trying to learn how best to utilize the ball. I'm finding it likes that zone similar to this one. It really responds to the friction. This new black/gold Messenger looks awesome.

    Hey Nick! With so many throwbacks coming back around, what do you think the chances are of Brunswick bringing back the Inferno line? My dad and I LOVED our Intense Infernos back in the day. I'd really enjoy seeing them make a reappearance. 😁

      Infernos have been remade as vintage already. Not sure when we will see another.

      @brunsnick yeah I saw the Vintage Inferno on the Tenpin Toolkit app, but I never saw them. I fell out of bowling for years, so that explains why I missed it. Maybe I'll get my hands on a Vintage someday.

    Love the throwback classics with updated tech! Wonder how the new Tundra Blue Fire will compare? Judging by core numbers alone it looks like it'll be a step down from the Messenger B/G...but from what I've seen in early reviews of the Tundra, it looks just as strong.

    Hey, Nick. Kind of surprised they have the Kaboom and this coming out so close together. Both are HK22 Reflex with virtually identical core numbers. How different are they and which is the stronger of the two? I am chomping at the bit to get my hands on one of these though. My OG cracked on me right after I had my best start to a league season in my 40 years of bowling (averaged over 250 heading into the holidays).

    The biggest problem with that old school ball from the early to mid 1990s when the lanes dried out it was awful in pin carry on the back side of the lanes. I would notoriously leave a stone 7 when the lanes broke down. 🙂

    With todays touring pros being so evenly matched( with about 8-10 being the exception that fills 3 of the 5 step ladder spots week after week) and who adjusts to lane conditions by switching to a ball that works on that pattern, i feel like someone who can figure out how to adapt by making whatever ball is in their hand work without completely making a ball change would do very well on tour. Players make 2 or so adjustments then mentally are looking at their bag or tour rep for help.
    While you can take a ball quickly find its sweet spot quickly and keep it there longer could be very competitive and do well on todays .Tour
