Track Arsenal Reactive Bowling Ball

(11 reviews) Write a Review

Designed to conquer both competitive lane conditions and league patterns, the Arsenal Reactive creates the ability to attack the lanes with confidence. The explosive core of the Arsenal Strong Reactive pairs a high-density rev-ball inside the extrememly low RG Morpheus Radical Symmetric core to create a high rev rate. Encasing it within the new 1200-grit sanded Power Punch reactive coverstock results in the strongest symmetric reactive bowling ball for heavier oil in Track's history.

    Pin 2:oclock next to ring finger, bomb center of grip between thumb and forefinger. If you like to put lots of revs on the ball or you want a ball that revs up easy, this ball is a winner. When it makes it's move on the backend it's very aggressive but still very predictable. Great ball for standing around the 15 throwing out to the 4 or 5. Pin action is devastating, needs some oil, heavy down to lite ok with minor adjustments, but put it away when it gets dry! Ball is kind of a copper & grey color most people won't notice it on the rack but when it hits, it makes that sound like a Harley backfiring and that's all, go ahead strike a pose - the pins will be gone!

    Great ball. Drilled by Track Pro Staff member Todd Adams. Todd laid this one out to do wrong this. CURVE. Thats what it does with pin on the side of ring finger with cg shifted left with MB strong. We through some clean and sheen polish on it to give it some length cuz the dull box finish this ball was very strong. I have to say this ball with some polish is an excellent bench mark ball. Reads the lane very well and transistion to the pocket is very readable. Ball is very forgiving if you come around it too much or come up alittle soft. Doesn't over react at all and jump hard. High series with it so far is 782.. 202-300-280. Great ball once again.

    ball drilled 5 1/2" from pap pin above fingers and cg slightly kicked out. no balance hole needed. I got this ball in october this year. Normal i dislike to change the out of box condition. but whit this ball i had to. i were playing on 44ft oil pretty flat and this ball will overreact. then i went to a ball spinner and polished it up slightly. not to much. wow what a difrent it made. i am now able deep inside in track area whit this ball. i have played about 100 games and it still almost looks new and have the same reaction as before.<scrip

    This review is submitted by my 14 year old son Brandon. These are his comments: The Arsenal series has added another fine choice with the Arsenal Reactive. I was blown away with this ball in heavy oil. First practice in pre-winter league was 204-228-228. The ball is 2” pin. It is drilled with the pin slightly under and to the right of my ring finger. Medium revs… The OOB finish was dull so I applied a light coat of polish to shine it up a bit. Tonight the house pattern was long and the oil was medium/ heavy with much carry-down. Even with the polish, the Arsenal Reactive sliced right through it. The ball likes to be finessed down the lane. Just relax, release, and it revs up quickly. Watch those pins fall! The ball will leave an occasional 10, but not too often. It is not quite as angular as my Arsenal Angular. It is more of a sweeping arc, which lines up and rolls into the pocket with the signature Track smack. I want to thank Bill and Chris at Buddies Pro Shop for their recommend

    here is the layout on the ball http://putfile.com/pic.php?pic=11/30723550493.jpg&s=x11 it has a 3inch pin and 3 1/2 oz of top weight (outa the box). the ball is a beast. in a total of 7 games iv bowled high games of 200 and 204 (pretty good for me) . i have to keep this baby in the oil or else it will roll out and give a poor hit or hit the 4 pin. i realy like the reaction i get (strong midlane, 3 inches of flare). my next ball is either a freak-a-zoid or solution powerplus (recommended by excaliber)

    This was a very consistant ball for medium oil. I cannot bowl with it on heavy oil the ball goes too long before it hits the breakpoint. When the ball does hit the breakpoint it reacts violently. The ball has a tendancey to go long when facing carrydown. I have not had a more forgving ball when going Brooklyn, the ball strikes as consistanly from there as it does from the pocket. I would recomend this ball to those who have a higher rev rate that want a consistant ball or to the low rev player that wants to play the medium line down the lane with minimal hook.

    Drilled pin 2 inches above the fingers, cg 2 inches below fingers (5x5 drill) with factory surface. This drill lets the Reactive get down the lane a little better and never stops rolling and coming on the backend. Ball hits like a ton of bricks, but what Track ball doesn't? Another great intro for the symmetrical line by Track! This ball will be decent for reading the lanes and shoudl do well in carrydown. A stronger drilling will make this ball much more aggressive earlier in the lane and will roll that much sooner, but that is what you need for a flood only.

    For those of you that have had the Freakazoid.......picture the Freakazoid a little earlier on the lane and with more backend and then you will have the Arsenal Reactive. It is strong and for most it is going to be a ball that is used on a heavier league patterns or tournament patterns. If you want to use it as an everyday ball you will need to adjust the surface. The Arsenal Reactive tames down O/U conditions for me better than any other ball currently in Track's lineup. If I leak it right of the oil line early the Arsenal Reactive doesn't overreact off of the dry and if I tug it into the oil it rolls strong enough to hold pocket. The Arsenal Reactive makes the Arsenal Series that much better than the competition!

    My first shot after being drilled was pry the smothest shot I've ever thrown and once it hit the pocket it kept going. It hit so hard I just about started crying... haha. If the lanes are dry or just starting to save yourself some time and don't even bother pulling it out of the bag. If you pull the ball or let it slide out a little, I'm sure it will find its way to the pocket on way or another. So far the no oil situation is the only problem I've had with it. If you want on of Track's new line balls then i would recomend this one. At buddiesproshop.com it was $130 including shipping, and I think that's the best deal anyone can get for a ball like that!

    Wow what a great fit this ball is for the Arsenal Aggressive and the Arsenal Angular... This ball fits with them perfectly... Ball drilled pin 4 1/2", cg 2 1/2". No balance hole... Polished out of box with Clean and Smooth... I tried the ball out of box and ball and it was way to strong so I hit it with Clean and Smooth now the ball reads the fronts very easy, if there is not oil this ball will have no energy for the backends. I find this ball fits great with the other Arsenal series as well with Xception 5.0 and the Solution... This ball is very strong, and it is a must for oil, do not attempt on dry lanes.... Very strong in the fronts great midlane pick up with a arc motion in the back. Well that is the Review on the Arsenal Reactive, stay tunned for upcoming reviews... I am outtie from Canada!!!!

    Arsenal Reactive - I drilled my Arsenal Reactive 4.5 x 2.5 with the pin under my ring finger and my extra hole 3in down from my axis to increase track flare to help deal with oil down lane. I polished the surface with 1200. THIS BALL GETS A BIG WOW. If you are having a problem getting your ball to read the midlane this ball is for you. With the very low RG core this one will roll through anything. The balls clears the fronts with ease and then reads the spot very nicely at 35ft. This ball just keeps on trucking and continues through the pins with incredible hit and carry. Everybody talks about the Absolute Inferno but I have a feeling that this ball is going to have to move over because the Arsenal Reactive is even stronger while still clearing the fronts with ease. The price tag on this one will also help make the decision pretty easy. On a scale of 1 -10 this one gets an 11.
