OK BUT BACK TO TRACK I DRILLED THIS BALL UP STRONG AS POSSIBLE WITH A WEIGHT HOME AND ALL THAT JAZZ I LIKE THIS BALL IT LOOKS AWSOME WHEN IT FLARES AND BLOWS ALL THE PINS OFF THE DECK THIS BALL IS WEAKER THAN MY MACHINE THIS BALL HAS FINALLY COMPLETED MY ARESENAL WITH A LIGHT OIL BALL(AKA SATURDAY NIGHT) BALL AFTER 2 OR 3 LEAUGES BOWL ON THE LANES THIS BALL ROCKS MY SOX VERY VERSITALE RARELY OVER HOOKS GOOD FOR A VARITEY OF STYLES BUT ITS AN ANOTHER GREAT TRACK

    Well Track fans I have to say yesterday I had the mean machine, equation and heat blast all drilled up. Mean Machine & Equation was awesome but I didn't feel like there was enough oil on the med/lite house shot to give either one a real test so I really took a look at the Heat Blast. I have drilled up "mid priced" balls from other companies before and they have performed adequate, but I was no where near that with the Heat Blast! Drilled pin next to ring finger at 5:0clock "drill pattern two" 3 3/8 X 5 15lbs, no balance hole needed. The drill sheet says "highest flare potential, med to strong skid front part of lane and big back end reaction." WoW ::shock:: is all I can say! The ball seemed to glide down the alley, then it was like it hit third gear, the move to the pocket was like those funny cars taking off, smack! Pins are low and flying everywhere. What amazing carry ( for a mid-priced ball?!) unbelievable! What a great matchup of core and coverstock and the ball is beautiful too

    I drilled this ball expecting a ball to be a benchmark ball. A "first ball" out of my bag. I started with this ball shiny, and I had troubles reading it. It seemed flippy, but if I played it to really go around the pattern, it wouldn't make it. So one day, I decided to scuff it. This ball came to life at that point on oil. When I could find oil to hold this ball off with, it was awesome. I have had many strong sets, one close to 800. I feel like this ball is very good for oil, probably a little early for when they break down.

    I highly suggest it when bowling on sport shot conditions, its not snappy in the end and its an arcing backend which is what you want for sport shots. It hooked a little more then expected but its not really a big deal, it carrys very well. Its also a nice bonus that it looks pretty sweet when it rolls down the lane.. Ive put a decent amount of games on it and it still hasnt need a rejuvination or resurfacing theres hardly anything that resembles a track in it yet. i would also not suggest throwing this ball on dry lanes, it will take off on you.

    Well I am back with the awaited review on the Heat Blast!!!! The heat blast is drilled 3 1/2" by 2 3/4, pin 3 1/2 above midline. This ball has great length to it, a great ball to have when the lanes start to break down and you need to get through the heads and create length. On the house shot I had to keep this ball pretty straight, untill the lanes started to break down then I could move left with it. It is very clean in the fronts, but the ball doesnt start its pick up till further down the lane. It has a great arcing motion in the back. I must say to if you are a bowler that likes colour then this ball you are going to want. For the tourney bowlers that need that extra length that they cant get out of there Artillery or Xception 5.0, get this ball in your bag.... I find this ball to be very good on the broken down lanes aswell as the short patterns that you run into at some tourneys. Looking for that ball that reads late on the lane, look no further than the Heat Blast. This ball is

One that is good for medium oil and has a decent amount of backend Expectations met: Some what Lineup: Ball fits between my Xception and Triton Heat Likes: 1) Cool colors 2) Overall reaction 3) Strong finish into the pocket 4) Triton Heats core with a Flip Block Dislikes: 1) Ball was not as aggressive as I wanted it to be Heavy oil: Haven't tried this ball on heavy oil, but judging the way that it works on other conditions I would not consider this a good candidate for heavy oil. Ball would skid too much to finish strong Rating: 3/10 M

    I drilled this ball up with the Pin 4 inches from my PAP and the CG 3 1/2 inches from my PAP (Positive Axis Point). I did not need a weight hole in this ball. My positive axis is 4 3/4 up 3/8. I tested this ball on our house shot and was able to play anywhere on the lane, without much problem. The ball reacted with a midlane arcing reaction. It was stronger than what I expected this ball to be. I also tested this ball on a 30 foot sport pattern, and I felt that the ball was too strong to be effective on this type of pattern. Overall, I would say this would be a great ball for bowlers looking for a strong arcing reaction. This ball was easy to read and make adjustments with. Any questions, please email me at Bill@BuddiesProShop.com Thanks, Bill BuddiesProShop.com<scr

    Drilled 5 X 4 Pin Up 3” X-Hole on Axis Tweener with Average rev rate Patterns used House Pattern and PBA Regional Pattern 1 The Heat Blast is a wonderful benchmark ball. It is a ball that can easily give you a true read on different lane patterns. This ball for me is good on medium to medium to dry lane conditions. With the drill pattern I put on it the ball easily gets down the lane to a smooth and controlled breakpoint. The surface is easily tweaked for your desired reaction but I left mine right out of the box. Overall a good all around ball that can fit into anyone’s bag. <

    This ball will find a home in any style bowlers bag. I found that the Heat Blast was easy to use and responded well to release changes and different lines to the pocket. This is one of those balls that all league bowlers should have. Strong & Friendly! Ton's of hitting power! Which is typical of most Track products. Rated at medium oil, this ball will only get stronger as the lanes breakdown. The coverstock is friendly and can be adjusted with no problem to help tournament bowlers fine tune their ball reaction. If your looking for down the lane control and a strong backend "Arc" style of hook then the Heat Blast is for you! Del Warren is Back! and Track is on the Grow again! www.discount-proshop.com

    Ball: 4x4 layout pin next to my ring finger....identical layout to my Blue Heat. I have used the Blast on many different shots. I have not found it UNPLAYABLE on anything yet. Line: I have played all over the lane with this ball already, and it is awesome from any area I want to play it at. I have to say that the straighter you can play this ball the most you are taking advantage of what it will offer up. Reaction: The Heat Blast reads the midlanes very well and is strong on the backend. It is not as strong as a ball like the Artillery in the backend....when the Artillery stats moving too much in the backend the Blast is the perfect ball to switch to. The Blast is a strong arcing ball. Impact: It is very strong at the pin deck. It drives through the pocket keeping the pins very low. Readability: It is the benchmark ball in Track's line right now. It reads the lanes nicely throughout the pattern. Similiar to how my Slash was, just a bit stronger overall. The facto

    I would recommend this ball to anybody who likes the ball to get down the lane and use its energy in the backends. This ball would especially roll good for any high rev bowlers out there. I like to play a deep line of about 30 out to 8 and this is the ball I have found to do so. It is drilled pin above the ring finger with the cg kicked out about an inch and a half and a small weight hole on my axis to help the ball make its corner. Always keep the ball polished for maximum backend reaction. This ball is absolutly amazing and probably one of tracks best balls yet.
