    I picked up this ball because I figure I needed a little more aggressive equipment than I've been throwing for some regionals and the Senior US Open. Even tho I haven't been too thrilled by Brunswick since I thru the Edge MANY years ago, their equipment seems to match up to the PBA shots well, so I figure it was between this and the Rule, so I decided to try a "B". Even though I generally like "arcing" equipment for my speed and roll, I decided to take a more aggressive drilling with this ball. Had a shot outside of 5, crossing with McCune, who threw flames up the ditch with a Dynothane product, while I actually started in around 8. First time I threw this ball, once I got comfortable with the trajectory, it really surprised me that it got thru the heads on down the lane quite well, not over-reacting, reading the mid-lane well, and really charged off the 1-2 board. Probably won't have much chance to throw it under normal conditions out here, because shots generally hook a bi

    After throwing the Absoulute at the Mini.(Las Vegas) I knew brunswick had another winner. i drilled this ball with the pin Under ring finger CG inline with pin, Mass Bais in thumb position about 6oclock (no hole with an slight shrift) which is the same as my Ultimate Inferno, To Test the balls. I could tell it was going to be a great ball. When I was 5-6 boards left with my feet And my target 3 board left then my Ultimate i like an strong snapping ball, but this ball Is different. for me it has a strong curve with a great mid lane read. hitting power is Awesome as well. i use the original inferno as my compare ball and this ball is a great addition to the inferno line. when the lanes are oily the is Absolute is the answer. after using this ball Imust say the ball is Absoulute An 10 rating another great ball. An a great addition to Your Bag.

    This could very well be the best ball on the market today and for a long time comming.if you are looking for a benchmark ball this is it look no further,reads the lanes beautifuly. It's very forgiving you can miss your tatget 3-5 boards outside and it's comming back, can also play anywhere from up the boards to deep I just can't say enough it puts all the other equipment I' ve thrown to shame. don't really care for some of the color variations some are just plain UGLY the mad scientists who mix this beast must be blind, the only other thing is do not roll this on dried up heads it is not meant to be played on that.

    i just drilled this ball last week and after throwing it i knew brunswick had another winner. i drilled this ball with the pin 3 3/8 with a stacked layout which is different from my other go to balls.i can tell it is going to be a great ball. i am not big on strong snapping balls, but this ball does it different. for me it has a strong snap with a great mid lane read. the hitting power is great as well. i use the original inferno as my bench mark ball and this ball is a great addition to the inferno line. when the lanes are touch oily for the inferno this absolute is the answer. after using this ball i am feeling that it will end up being the first ball out of my bag. another great ball!!<sc

    This bowling ball is amazing. i haven't thrown a brunswick ball since a danger zone hpd. now i can see why everyone is throwing these infernos this thing revs up and hits the pins like nothing i have seen. the pocket becomes huge. maybe i am overreacting because its new, but in 9 games i am averaging about 250. it works from anywhere and as long as they lanes aren't burnt, you don't need another ball. i'm a cranker and this ball is so controlable. i am on the brunswick bandwagon. time for an intense. remember, if it doesn't hit or doesn't hook, you threw it. put some hand in it. enjoy

    This ball has was drilled perfectly to fit my PAP with the pin about an 1 1/2" above the ring finger. Kept it with the Rough Buff finish as well. First ball I threw I thought the ball was gonna be a late flipper...but I threw it like crap is why. I didn't drill it to flip late I drilled it to arc smoothly and strongly and after letting go of it perfect, this ball was an animal. I was able to play from the 10 board out to 3, 15 out to 5, and even 25 out to about 12 and this ball was able to maintain energy til the backends to crush the pocket. The only weak 10's I left were from me releasing it like a wuss. This coverstock is unreal and has great recovery power. A couple balls I thought I shoved too wide came back with enough power for a lovely mixer strike. Big thanks to Brunswick for their great seminar and for this ball. This ball will be hard to keep on shelves.
