<p>This ball just flat out kills the pins. With only 16 games on the AI I have shot a 290 & 278 game, 727 series. These are my best games & series ever in 30 years of bowling. Avg. was 189 & now is climbing to 200+. Lane conditions have varied from fresh oil to drier with carry down. I just adjust my position on the approach to match the ball to what the lanes are doing. When I miss to left the ball holds and carries the Brooklyn strike. If I miss my target to the right no problem this ball finds the pocket. If you are looking for a new ball I give the AI a 10+.</p>

got this ball to play a inner line on oily lanes which i think it is ment for but, gettin a consistent hook on the ball seems to be a change. the ball is way to speed sensitive. ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok ok<sc

this ball hits very nice a great ball from brusnwick but it isnt versatile you can use it in medium oil and works great or in medium to light .. but if you roll this ball on a heavy oil the ball dont do anything ..yes hits very hard but doesnt come back if you dull this ball make a good arc but loose a lot of power and dont hit great ..wathever you need to have one of these ball ins your arsenal for medium - light condition or when the lane are breaking down or over under conditions..this ball its very similar to the fire quantum just more cheap and more easy to drill thanx!!!!

Got this one drilled up one week ago at duffs pro shop. The pin is above the fingers. It is drilled to go very long and snap hard, and boy does it ever. The first day of league with the absolute was very good. I was playing the 3rd arrow on the left side of the lane out to about the 4 board. The ball went very long then at about 45 feet it would snap in and blow the rack. The first game with it was not very good. I ended up throwing a 204. The second game with the Absolute was better. I threw a 220, but in the third game the absolute was coming in perfect. I ended up throwing a 290. I ended up with a 714 series. All I can say is that I did not think that brunswick could top the original inferno, but I think they finally have.<scrip

The brand new Absolute Inferno by Brunswick features the orignal Inferno weight block but has a more tacky / grity pearl reactive coverstock called the activator+. My ball is 15lbs and had 3.06top with a 3inch pin. After drilling my ball has the PIN under ring, C.G pushed right and a balance hole off my Pap, box finish. With the pin under my ring finger it measures to be 4inchs from my positive actcess point. My first inpresstion off the ball was good,since my proshop man sold 20 of them in the past month. Including 2 of them went to my friends. I also watched a guy shoot 300 with this ball. If any of you watch the PBA many pros used this ball like Norm Duke, Brad Angelo,Tony Reyes, Amleto Monicelli. My first time bowling with my Asolute is about 2 weeks ago. I have about 20+ games on it now. I used it at the same house but on two diferent patterns. The first pattern was Medium oiled with no backend meaning the lanes had carry down. On that patt

I punched this ball the night before a tournament a few weeks ago and wow. I had the best ball reaction in the house, Over 8 games I had to move an entire three boards left. As the oil broke down, I was able to take some hand out of the ball and make some speed adjustments while not having to move too much on the lane. Even in doing this, the ball still stored enough energy to kick the corners out. I was able to practice on a 42 foot sport shot the other night, and this ball gave me more room than even my Sapphire Zone. I was able to play up the crack or the middle of the lane, both with much success. I had another tournament this weekend on a sport shot that Kegel laid out. The lanes were getting pretty burnt towards the end of the day. While some people were starting to throw plastic, I was able to get inside 6th arrow with this thing and wheel the lane. The ball still stored enough energy through the heads to not only get the 10 pin out, but blow the rack. Ive seen the phrase "s

15.5 pounds 2.75" pin 3 oz. TW Drilled 4x4 w/ small, deep fourth hole 1/2" past my PAP to bring the ball back to legal. Had a chance to receive one of these beauties from Ron Bragg at Brunswick Bowling. Aside from the fact that it took nearly two weeks to get here, wonderful people to work with. BTW, it's not his fault that Brunswick cannot keep up with production of their equipment, otherwise the ball would have gotten here sooner. I was a tad worried, to say the least, about this ball. I had just had the honor of being the fourth person in North America NOT to like their Zone Classic while tearing it up with a new Impulse Zone(nearly 245 for first six weeks of ownership) and was aprehensive about trying a new piece of equipment while performing so well with another. Hear this now, if you're not confident enough in your game or your ability to properly strategize a layout on a new ball, you'll may never find a new piece of equipment that you'll score better with.

From Brunswick we have the new Absolute Inferno, designed for Med-Light oil conditions, but for me it can cover everything from Med-Light to Heavy oil which has garnered it the position of being my new benchmark ball. The ball is drilled pin under ring, with the cg kicked out which gives it the perfect hook, set, and roll motion as it goes down the lane. This also makes it very predictable as it gives the ball a strong arcing hook instead of a skid snap motion. The original Inferno core lets the ball rev up fairly quick off the hand, while the Activator+ cover on the ball stores a tremendous amount of energy which is unleashed upon the pins. I am glad I purchased this ball as I can now play further right than I had previously been able to in my local, lightly oiled, wooden laned house. I highly recommend this ball for any style of bowler, as I have seen it work wonders for Crankers, Tweeners, and Strokers alike.

Player Stats: Cranker: 430-450rpms Speed: 18mph at the Pins. Ball Specs: 1-2" Pin, 3oz TW Drilling, Pin under Bridge, Cg out. I think I'm falling in love with this ball! Original Inferno core and Activator+ cover? Is this a dream? I love the Inferno core and Activator cover but together it tends to be a little early for me on a lot of conditions. Even in the box condition which is a "Rough Buff" which pretty much means it has a sheen to it. It still gets down the lane quite a bit further then the original Inferno. I was a little surprised that it wasn't as strong as I expected, very comparable to the Zone Classic in terms of hook potential. On medium oil patterns the Absolute is incredible, great length and a stronger sharper backend move then the original inferno, the Absolute is strong off the dry giving me more room on the outside parts of the lane then I’ve had in a long time. It gets through the heads extremely clean but will check up early if the mids are hoo

i was never sold on the inferno line, my game doesnt match up to the early roll of all brunswick balls, but after this one, i love it, i can only use it for maybe 2- 2 1/2 games but other than that, i think it is the greatest ball on the market right now. everyone should have one in there bag, it can be used on everything except extremely dry, or extremely flooded. the pin is under the ring finger, with the cg kicked out to the right. reads the mid-lanes perfect, and just takes off when it hits the backend, saves alot of energy for the hit also.

This ball turns the corner harder than any ball I've ever thrown. This ball gets to the breakpoint and charges back to the hole. Hits like a freight train. Everyone should have one of these in their bag. I played about 10 to 3 on a normal house shot and the ball destroyed racks all night long. Bowled with it on a 37 foot sport shot playing up 7 and the ball just stored up energy and exploded on the back ends. The ball is so versatile it's scary. Kinda like the original inferno with more length and alot more back end. Even if you don't like brunswick, I recommend giving this ball a shot.<scrip

I have 1 of them drilled to go long and snap hard on the back ends and I dont have to worry about it not comming back if I send it out. The other one I have drilled to arc and I still dont have to worry about it not comming back. This ball hits like a tank and carrys like crazy. The only thing is it drives like crazy and every now and then it wont deflect and you will leave the 9 pin. But I would recommed this ball to anyone. I took mine and got the factory polish off. I wet sanded it with 800 grit cabs. After that there is not a house that it will not come back on even it is really slick even if I send it out too far.

Just got this ball and it is my first Brunswick (usually buy Storm). This ball is really AWESOME! I throw with avg speed and with a low number of revolutions and this ball hooks and hits really HARD! I need to get use to the nice hook since most of my previous balls did not snap enough in the backend (unless the lanes were dry). If you want a ball to hooks big time and hits hard, get this ball!!! Have not really tried it on dry lanes yet, but even with my low number of revolutions, I think it will hook too much. This ball is so awesome, I may switch to Brunswick! :-)
