Track Thrash Bowling Ball

(18 reviews) Write a Review

Thrash - (verb) 1. To hit hard or make a series of violent and uncontrolled movements. 2. To swing, beat, or strike in the manner of a rapidly moving flail. 3. To beat or whip severely. 4. To defeat throroughly. 5. To defeat completely or by a wide margin, as in an athletic contest. 6. To defeat utterly; Vanquish. No matter how you define it. It just strikes! Introducing the Thrash, the latest addition to the Track arsenal. The Thrash is the perfect balance of length and backend. The modified "flare-Ring" core helps the Thrash navigate the front end of the lane while the WOW II Pearl coverstock provides enough traction to give the bowler a strong arcing backend reaction. Straighter players will find the strong backend of the Thrash very useful while the high rev player can take advantage of its extra length. We didn't invent the art of striking we just made it easier.

    Man this ball is the bomb. I currently throw a eraser blaze, HeX(my fav), Power diesel, and thrash. When I first wrote on this ball I was trying to throw the ball like I shouldn't have been. Now I love this thing. Carries, hooks, looks good, All this ball needs is a tv inside of it and u got the best thing ever made. I strongly recommend this ball for slower ball speeds (like me) or players that need a hard hitting ball. I suppose this ball can be used in any condition if u set the layout up right and adjust the surface. All around this ball is the bomb. Long live Track.

    It is really unbelieviable how a single ball can stomp all of your previous favourites and climb on top itself. That`s what this ball did. Since I haven`t played with any balls from Track I couldn`t get the ball it the right pocket at all, it just snapped too hard and over-turned. I didn`t score much (165-170), but that was my fault beacause i couldn`t get any spares. Then, after about 4 games, when I started to get the hang of it, i could get all shots in the pocket with a strong arc just like I wanted. Scored 197, 196, 233, 187and 247 like it was nothing. So I ended the day with an avarage of 197.3 which was good enough to get me the 4th place. This ball is exactly what I`ve been looking for, it goes long and then snaps back with power. It hits so good that it seems unfair and makes me want to rhyme. It snaps back left, when you throw it to the right, drives on through and strikes the pins with might. And so on...... So congratulation Track, you have just converted anothe

    the firsts time i used it in a match was a travel league at Columbia bowling alley in Columbia Pa. This place is known for being fried all the time. but that day we bowled a double shift. what was really nice about it was i pulled it out the last game and threw a normal line with my feet at 15L over 3rd arrow out to about 7 board and it was flying into the pocket. i have mine drilled with the pin above and slightly to the right of my ring finger. it goes long than revs up fast to really blast through the pocket. I think their are going to be some real high scores real soon with this ball.<scri

    Generally speak,this ball moves like all other Triton series.Slide,Skid,Hook,Hit ... This is very worth to buy if you are demanding to have a mid price ball with highly amazing feedback when you play it.The backend is very controllable & hit hard.This ball allow you release not so completely but still kept good moving on the lane. Work very nice no matter how you play it.If you want to make a tournament shot,this is my recommendation for you~~ Enjoy it & keep earning!Once you find this ball's advantages,don't hesitate to buy second one for back-up. Bowl for life,life for bowl....

    Overall, I think for the money, the Thrash is well worth the price. I picked this ball up early in the season to try to get something that would rev up a little earlier and get going as the house shot is long, bad carry down, and spotty. Given a properly set up shot, this ball glides through the heads, picks up in the midlane really well, and finishes with a great hit. If the lanes get spotty (as ours have done all year) this ball can be very tricky to play with. When it hits a dry spot, it can really get going and become way to agressive, yet if it hits a spot of oil, it will miss the head pin. I have other equipment that handles the spotty conditions better. I think this is a good ball from Track in their midrange equipment. As I find better shots, I will update.

    I bought this ball for the backend and so far I'm a bit dissapointed. In medium to dryer lanes this ball flys and carrys the whole house. Thats great I'm real happy on that. On heavy oil this ball skids, won't rev, won't move, won't carry, just flat out will do nothing other than suck. I had the ball drilled fairly strong and well it obviously wasn't strong enough. It may also be my slower ball speed (13-14) that isn't helping. Need a hard hitter for medium/dry lanes get this baby, need a heavy oil ball, don't get it. But its not meant for heavy oil so maybe I'm just overeacting.

    As I said above another great Track product.The hitting power of this ball is great, however hvy handed bowlers you will leave alot of 8/9 pins. For me this ball is more suited for oil than anything else, but w/ proper drilling it could be for any condition. You cannot beat the price versus quality. Excellent ball for any averaged bowler. Track`s equipment continues to amaze me, just keep geting better and better.Man a hundred words is alot to type for a ball review. I just bought a superfreak, I can`t wait to see how it reacts with heavy oil.

    At first i did not know if i liked this ball or not. It left a lot of 10 pins and a lot of weird stuff. i almost gave up on it.But after i used it for about 20 games all of a sudden it got hot! It carries great now and I shot 265 with it this week with 9 strikes in first game. Ended up with high600 series and carried almost every time i hit the pocket.Also bowled good the other trwo times this week i used it.Averaging over 200 for the last 9 games. I have been using columbia balls for a while and thought i would try Track as I used to throw them all the time shooting my first 300 and 778 series. I really reccomend this ball to someone who needs a little help on finishing harder. It is a great ball and I am glad i bought it.

    I give this ball a 10 because the only draw back is carry down and that is not the condition I got this ball for. I got it for medium lanes with strong backends. It works perfect, it does not overreact off of the dry, and in most cases, even sport shots it gives me about 3-4 boards of forgiveness. This ball is worth the price they charge for the morpheous core balls. I would really like to see a solid reactive version. Something would check up about 3-4 boards sooner for when this is not quite making it on carrydown. I have a Crunch for that condition right now, and it works well.

    this is one hard hitting ball carry was good but a solid 8 pin cost me some money. i used it on a typical walled house shot oil down to 38 buffed with a fairly cleaned back end. i was really supprised with the lenght i got out of it. and i could really tell this thing hits hard. it goes about 8 feet further down the lane than my threat with about the same back end. this is one cool skid flip ball. it worked great out of the box. for me polishing it would be a waste of time i dont have a lot of hand. but i could figure it would go way long with a big snap.

    Overall the ball hooks faster than any ball I'v got. Its lenght is little shorter than my freak and moves like my metoer flash. As always, I put the over the third arrow and goes out to the five board and comes back like monster. I have tried it during the summer and shot a 223 and a 568 with it. Before you go out make sure you clean it. The polish I use, is polish plus. For some reson when I thow it out past the five board it never comes back and this goes for all of my bowling balls. When my thrash is hooking too much than means to change to a different ball or thow it much faster down the lane.

    This ball is a monster in the pocket. It has alot of carry if your speed is right and delivers the best punch I have ever had on the backend. Awesome pin reation.I debated against this ball, the xfactor reloaded and a Wicked. I am glad I chose this ball because I love the way it carries and the fact that I can play outside/inside and it deliver a punch. I also can miss my mark by a few boards and still do major damage. When I miss really bad and go brooklyn I seem to get 9 or a X more than anything else. Great ball, it should be called "Honey"<

    ok, this ball flat out will carry everything, at least for me. i got the ball drilled with the highest flare potential, which i ussually always get. this was my first 15lb ball, and now i dont know whether its the ball thats good, or the fact that its heavier, hopefully both. on most house shots i can get the ball on about board 16-18 at the arrows swing it to 6, and have it recover and carry great. i also tried it out in my sport league on a couple different patterns, guess what? CARRY CARRY, and i probably wouldnt be writing this if i didnt need more words in here.

    This ball is a great ball to add to your bag, if you need a nice roling ball that has awsome reaction in the backend on all different amounts of oil. Just have to watch your speed.If you get too fast with this ball, this ball will skid alot farther down the lane before it begins its turn into the pocket. so you could come up light if you throw it fast. i give this ball a 10/10 for its superb roll and backend reaction.. Good luck with this ball guys. and keep those high scores rolling if you got any questions about this ball feel free to contact me at flynndarren25@hotmail.com

    I drilled the ball with the pin under my ring finger and kicked the cg out a tade to the ball would read the mid lane real well, i first tried it out in a little sport shot tourney with 33 feet of oil and OMG this thing hook a TON! everyone was watching because i would loft the gutter send it to the 1 board and it would go brook. The next day i went pot bowling at a house with alot of oil and on synthetic lanes, as long as it stayed in the oil the ball rolled great, but when it hit that dry i made a left tuen right then. All in all i think that i am going to keep this ball for med to heavy oil patterns.

    This ball is amazing. I drilled it with the pin 5 inches from my PAP (Medium strong for my hand action) with a fairly large balance hole 2 1/2 inches below my axis. I was looking for a ball for early in PBA squads. I like the hole down drillings when there is little or no buildup in the middle, seems to give me a more readable look. This ball is soooooo much more, not only is it great on the patterns I thought it would be good on, it works still handles the oil when there is some build up, as long as there is some clean backend, it works great. I have used this ball on numerous occasions and with very good success. The only limitations are when the fronts get a little used up, (Surface and a particle ball on dry heads really don't work well with each other) or on really short patterns. On the short patterns it makes such a strong move that it seems to never get right of brooklyn. All in all two thumbs up for this one, a surprise and a great one.

    One of the greatest balls track has made love it. i am the kind of guy that stand center dot and swings it to the second arrow this ball can go long but it hits like A MACK TRUCK!! This ball is one to own greastest ball i have owned thinking of getting a second one but drilled differnt.This ball is a very controlable ball can play anywhere on kinda scared to try it on lanes with no oil but i think it will do fine. right now all i throw is track i throw a Assassin,Silencer,Thrash.

    this ball hits beautifully but left some doubts as to if the track people knew what they made. They have it as a strong arcing ball but for me being somewhat of a cranker with above average ball speed, it didn't have an arc. The ball seemed more like a skid/snap reaction with about 3/4 ounce side weight. I took out the 3/4 side weight and then the ball didn't flip as hard and did turn out to be more of a arc. I threw this ball on a normal house shot and found that it went about 48 feet before it turned down the lane but once it turns it snaps back hard. It actually reacted similar to the threat which kind of suprised me. People with less revolutions and at least average ball speed will find that this ball has a beautiful strong arc but for the crackers and even power strokers they will find more length and skid/snap reaction out of it.
