Brunswick Ultimate Inferno Bowling Ball

I have owned this ball for a few years. It would crush the pins and hook even on soaked conditions when it was brand new. I think this ball makes good bowlers look great. It has a fairly early breaking point and a nice smooth arc. I still use the ball fairly often but its not the same as when I first purchased it. It soaked up a ton of oil. Overall though its a great ball and I bowled my only 300 with it. I highly recommend this ball even though its probably not available anymore. I would like to buy some sort of newer version of this ball some day.

first 15 pund bowling ball i ever got. i got this about 3 years ago, i was a lot younger then, so the drilling doesnt exactly let me get the full potential out of the ball. back when i always used it..it hit very hard, had very good mid-lane, good for basically anything you wanted it for. now i really only use it for a spare ball. it kicks out that dam 10 pin very well. ive came soooo close to getting the 7-10 a few times(the 10 pin kicked over and spun in FRONT of the 7 but didnt hit it :@). i still use it for dryer lanes now

This ball was purchased in 2003. This is the best ball Brunswick has ever made and no one can tell me other wise. It still hooks through oil. I clean my equipment, so I would have to say if you don't clean your equipment, don't even bother buying a heavy oil ball! Heavy oil balls soak up the oil, so clean them and make them last. This one is a gem. For the haters, re-drill it or play with the surface because it will bring out the true beauty in the ball. It revs up fast and does hook. I tried polishing it, but I wouldn't recommend that, the ball works very well when it is kept dull, so for the people that dont like it, try to re-drill it. AMAZING BRUNSWICK. I didn't even try the Scorchin Inferno because I know nothing can match up to this ball....

this ball is short of ultimate it would rev up fast but then what? it just didnt make its turn this ball was the worst inferno so far i had them all i thought it would hook like the first inferno exept made for fresh oil i found this ball is nothing like it the polished inferno hooks more than this ball ever did. so i'm going to have to see if the strike zone is any better becuase it has a different core lets hope This once again is the worst inferno ever made it just does really nothing at all it hits hard but rarely its good if you want to play between 3rd and 4th arrow on a dry outside house shot.

First off I'd like to say that this is my favorite ball evAr! I've got this bltch drilled up pretty darn strong; Pin to PAP: 3 3/8 45 degrees "Mass Bias" on VAL I try to keep the surface between 1000 and 400 grit at all times. Just depends on what kind of condition I'm going to be bowling on. Ball always reads the midlanes well and hasn't rolled out on me yet. Phenomenal carry........Extremely continuous reaction from start to finish. Okay, I'm bored now. Everyone go out and find 3 of these

when i bought this ball, i was looking for something to use on heavier patterns since my preadator died, and my zone pro active and storm x-factor just wouldnt cut it anymore, especially on synthetic lanes. It did exactly what i wanted to. When nobody else could get their ball to grab, this ball would be viscious at the end of the lane. it worked awesome on synthetic lanes. the only problem was when i would get it on dry wood, i couldnt keep it on the lane. probably not a good ball for everyone, but worked well with my style

First of all am cranker. 16 mph 24 revs, ball drilled pin right above ring finger cg close 2 axís balance hole drilled in axis. drilled this ball for Aalborg international Bai 2006. looks like it moves well in start of play. is not very consistent. after i resurfaced it, i only have about 3 games in it before i have 2 resurface it again. dont like the way i have 2 treat this ball. and it burns in dry and wont hook in oil. like the absolute inferno this ball is like shit. cant get a even reaction its an on off ball

Hey, I appreciate you trying to help me get this ball to hook, but it just seems not to be worth it. I don't wanna have to go through hoops just to make a ball hook, when I can take one of my other balls, reactive and pearl stuff, play a slightly different line and get great results. I got the UI to use when the lanes were pretty flooded, and it just disappoints me....I have a better look with my ThrottleR, Trauma Response or Messenger Ti Low RG. I'll just have to wait and see what the Strike Zone does, but I really am coming to the opinion that Brunswick sucks. If the Strike Zone disappoints me too, then it will be my last Brunswick ball. I've had much better results sticking with Columbia. Thanks Guys Andy

First of all im a cranker. high revs med speed. PAP 5 out, no up, or down. Ball Layout 1: PIN to CG aprox 3 1/2". Ball drilled: pin 5 1/2" from pap. pin above fingers. CG kicked out small but very deep balance hole. This ball is normaly wet sanded "600 grit" and then polished with Ebonite factory finish gloss. Reaction: this ball goes very long and with a very sharp and hard turn. uses this ball on normal condition. Ball Layout 2: PIN to CG aprox 4" Ball drilled: pin 4 1/2" from pap. pin above and right of fingers. CG 1/4" side and positive finger weight This ball is normaly wet sanded to "240/400 grit" Reaction: this ball has a very even reaction down the lane but stil incredible strong reaction. uses this ball on wet condition and long patterns so 800 abralon is not strong enough for youre ball. try wet sandpaper all the way down to 240. this might need a few games before it works well

I've had this ball for less than a year, since August, bought it used, but in good condition. The first couple of months that I had it, I loved the ball, used it on every condition I could. Now, now matter where I bowl, wood or synthetic lanes, dry, medium or heavy, the ball does nothing. I slow the ball speed down, put more hand in it, everything that I know off, but it will not hook anymore. When it does, it just hits like a wet sponge and carries nothing. This ball has been constantly cleaned, desaturated a couple times, and I've tried every surface from polished to 800 grit abralon...nothing works. I can get everything else in my arsenal to turn more than this ball. I'm so disappointed with this ball, that I no longer carry it with me. Lets hope the Strike Zone that I bought will do more than this ball.

Wow what a dud. The ball rolled and turned realy smooth on the lane but it had spent all of its energy by the time it got there causing it to hit like a wet marshmello. I know it wasn't the layout that made it loose all of its energy, because its a pretty weak layout. I stacked the pin above and between the fingers w/ the cg in the palm mass bias in the thumb.so there is no reason for the ball to loose all of its energy and hit. The only reason i can think of is that i may have too much hand for the ball. But with a layout like that i just dont understand.

the other night ijust used my friends ultimate and it took me a while to find my spot. after i found my spot i was throwing strike after strike after strike. before i knew it i had like and 8 bagger. but in the ninth i had a ringing 10. after each game the ball came less reactive which was sad cause it had just came out of the box. the ultimate has a nice smooth clean reaction and a nice flare potencial. i really HATE the fact that it is like a huge sponge and soaks up all of the oil.

This ball after 800 games or more still hooks like a monster as long as u clean it and resurface every once in awhile there is no complaints at all about this ball everyone should have it. this coverstock can take a beating only mild chips. or like i call it character ;) BUY THIS BALL WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO

Have 2 ultimate. one drilled 5 1/2" cg kicked out. small balance hole one drilled 3 3/8" cg kicked out little, no balance hole needed This ball hits like a bomb. If jou polish it, jou have det perfect reaction, but perfect reaction doesnt last more than 2 games top. so you have to move righr after only a 1 game if you still want to hit pocket. using the first one for spare ball at this time. when it is resanded its the best ball on the marked buy after few games this ball sucks. if you dont have money or time to resand it all the time. dont bye
