The Scorcher-NPT introduced a revolutionary technology in bowling balls developed exclusively by Visionary Bowling Products. The NPT (Non-Particle Technology) cover stock is the first "actively enhanced" shell without textured particles. A special additive is infused throughout the cover material to provide a consistent reacting ball that can be sanded, polished, or resurfaced and will still retain its special characteristics. This ball will get through the heads much cleaner than the Midnight Scorcher and deliver a crisper backend reaction. The NPT has the grip and control in the oil like a urethane ball but with the hit of a reactive. In addition, this ball reacts fairly similar on wet or dry patterns, so for those of you who are consistant but would rather not have to make big adjustments, this ball is for you. If you are looking for a ball that is very forgiving to errant shots, look at some of our other balls. Due to the special processes used to create this cover stock, color variances with light and dark streaks may be found throughout the ball. BUT, every ball contains the same material and additives, so this does not affect the performance or reaction of the ball - just the appearance.

    This is a neat ball. Not one of my faves however. Feels like a plastic ball. Has nice reaction on oily lane conditions. I would not recommend it on drier conditions however. The control of this ball takes getting used to. It doesn't react like most reactive balls. It is probably due to its unique coverstock. I do not use this ball very often. I like the Charcoal Execusioner better when it comes to med to heavy lane conditions. I will have to bowl this ball more often. I will just have to find the time for it. Over all this ball is good.

    This is the third of the four ball package that I picked up from Visionary. This ball reminds me somewhat of my El Nino 2000, but it covers about 2 more boards, and hits slightly harder. That is saying a lot seeing the El Nino 2000 is considered one of the best balls on the market. For my game I like the extra foot or so of length I get out of my El Nino a little better, but this ball may be able to handle carry down better, because that is the one weakness that I found with the 2000. I'll give this one an 7 out of 10. I have mixed feeling about this one. UPDATE I am suprised that of the number of people that dislike this one. I do have to say that in a polished state my first review was right on the money. If you take it down to 600, this one can also play fairly similar to the Midnight Scorcher. This shows this ball can be used on a number of conditions depending on cover modification, more so that most balls on the market. Great ball with lots of possibilities. Rating remains
