Brunswick Black Amber Zone Bowling Ball

Loved this ball! Wish I could buy one now . Had my best scores with this ball. Still have it but can't use it . Threw it and coverstock split 3/4 around In league play.

As time passes on, I would like to reflect on the most underrated zone ball made. This ball saved my butt more than a couple of times! When the shot was going away(DRYING) all i had to do was to bring out the black/amber zone! It didn't cover a lot of boards, but you don't need a lot when it's drying. Smooth and preditable. It's too bad the brunswick got rid of this zone. It wasn't a big seller, But when my Danger was hooking to much, I bring out the black amber to pull thru for me!

This ball will reward any bowler with any degree of consistency in hi/her delivery. It will always roll true, with a consistent breakpoint. Very good for a deep outside line, it will arc very smoothly if left to its own devices. If you put a bit more hand on the ball then you can force it to snap on its breakpoint and come into the pocket without loosing your revolutions. It will not operateif it isn't kept away from the heavier oil. Definantly preffers synthetic lanes (as most reactive's tend to do anyway) A good solid ball to keep. Will never be your first weapon of choice, but works well as a contingency plan. What you would expect from a zone.

This was (and correct me if I'm wrong) the first Zone made along with it's stable mate the solid Amber Zone. I think I'm one of only a few people that actually bought this ball and still has it. I have had many Zones and this is by far my favorite Zone. It gave me great length ( still does) and a very true roll. When I bought this ball it was a very good hooking ball and it still does cover quite a bit of boards on a dry shot. But for the most part on todays condtions it is great for playing the lanes a bit straighter. All and all a very good ball from Brunswick.
