    You thought DV8's Grudge was a monster ball, wait till you get a look at DV8's New Pitbull. For a ball this strong to still turn the corner is something special. The Pitbull is 2-3 ft sooner in the midlane than the Grudge while maintaining a smooth round shape off the end of the pattern. You will see 3-4 more boards total hook than the Grudge.hro I've thrown this ball on every shot I've come across. Let me tell you it does not disappoint. On 35ft the pitbull smooths out the friction allowing me to keep control downlane. On 46ft the pitbull digs through the oil taking bites out of the pattern. If you looking for equipment to take bite out of oily lanes then look no further than DV8's Pitbull.

    DV8 Pitbull 40x5.5x40 The new DV8 Pitbull is the biggest hooking ball to date in the DV8 line. I started out on our house shot (wood lanes) and immediately could see that I needed to move into the puddle fast. I moved in playing 20-10 and the ball looked like the monster I assumed it was. Unfortunately our house has a lot of friction in the track area and it was just too much ball for the pattern. I decided my best bet was to take this to a center known to play a lot tighter. The pattern was 44ft, ice oil and 25.5mL Earlier in the year I qualified here with my Grudge so I knew it would be better for comparison. Both balls gave me a good look to the pocket but that's where the similarities end. For me, I was 3 boards deeper with the Pitbull than with the Grudge. I think the big surprise was that the Pitbull, even with its rough box surface and stronger core, was about a foot longer than the Grudge with a much more defined backend hook. I had a lot of success with the Grudge but I wasn't able to keep it in my hands as long as I could the Pitbull. This is the newest "hook in the box" and will be a great ball for the low rev/speed dominant bowlers. Make no mistake though, this ball is targeted for heavy oil and excels on this type of pattern. It is fairly versatile and could be used on medium patterns due to its ability to get a little more length than most big hooking solids on the market. Making a small surface adjustment would increase its versatility.

    3 to 4 boards stronger then the original grudge off the spot. This ball reads the midlane well and has enough teeth to get around the corner. This ball amazes me ..i personally like either pin up or down on this ball. You can not go wrong layout wise with this ball. My self i have 60 ×4 1/2 ×65 on this ball. It gets the length i need around the midwest and gets the desired pop on the back end
