The Slingshot line features new color technology and a new core wrapped with a proven coverstock offering bowlers the hitting power of a high-performance ball without the price tag.

Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Silver/Black:

I last bowled during the plastic ball era over 3 decades ago and resumed my bowling career in the last year. I decided on this ball solely based on the looks. I've used it now for almost a year and have come to the conclusion I need to get a better ball, one that hooks more. Since I've started using this ball I've become a "splits machine". Splits high in the pocket as well as low. This ball does not strike well. I need one that has a more aggresive move to the pocket.

Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Silver/Black:

This ball is a great compliment to your heavy oil ball. When the lanes break down, and u need something a little less aggressive, THIS IS YOUR ANSWER! You can use the same line, and not worry about this ball taking a left through the face. It has a really nice arch to the pocket, and hits hard enough to clear the corners. I can also use it on heavy oil to take out ten pins, or anything on the right side of the head pin without overreacting. I have the blk/sil color, and get tons of compliments on how nice it looks. This is a MUST HAVE ball for the money. [...] Great product, great price, [...], what more could you ask for?!

Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Silver/Black:

Wanted a ball that didn't hook and needed to drop a pound in weight. This ball does exactly what the reviews said it would; it goes long, snaps at the back end with great pin action. The sling shot cut my corner pin spares in half. I love it!

The Slingshot is your answer
By Quetta from Matoaca,VA on 9/20/2010
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Silver/Black:

I bowl league 3 nights per week as well as tournaments. This ball is excellent for drier lanes. Carries well, hits great, and is very predictable. My goal was to purchase a ball that was not too aggressive, but still has a controllable back end. Some mid lane balls are still too aggressive even with a week layout! This was a great medium that won't dissapoint!

Awesome Ball
By devldog2005Verified Reviewer from santa clara, ca on 5/14/2010
Pros:
Forgiving, Great Look
Cons:
Scuffs easily
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Silver/Black:

First let me start by saying I love this ball. I have put up a new high game almost every time I use it. I was getting games in the 120's with the house balls, but once I got this I have been pretty consistently over 200 a game.

I have put around 50-60 games on this ball, and for the most part it is in great shape. There is one semi-large scuff on the side which I got somewhere between games 6-10. I have not received any more scuffs on it since, so my guess is that it caught a piece of equipment badly while it was in the pit. The scuff and how soon I got it is the only reason I don't give this ball 5 stars.

Bottom line is that this ball is a fantastic entry level performance ball and I recommend it to everyone!

There is no cons

Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Silver/Black:

I can't say enough about this ball. My first series with it was 232 299 235 for a 766. On a 220 avg. I never had to change my shot all night cause the cover on this ball doesn't soak up all that precious head oil.
