Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Red/Silver:

I'm a beginner that started really getting into the game, was using the house ball getting an avg of 150. Once I got this ball my Avg jumped up to 190's with a high of 250. I couldn't be happier with this ball!!!

Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Red/Silver:

Im only 14 but the slingshot is the best ball i ever own. Ive been bowling for about four years and i got this bowl my third year of bowling and it just impress me. I bowled my highest score off this ball a 230 and my average is only a 140. To me it doesnt matter how the lanes are oil this ball can hook in any kind of oil pattern. Great ball for first timers that bowls league. For the price you cant beat it.

Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Red/Silver:

Everyone that's out there says that this ball is the "Best Bowling Ball out there for the money", and now I know why. I started off bowling 130s & 140s, now I'm bowling 160s & 170s games with a 200 game every now & then out on the lanes as well, and to a beginner like myself that's a big deal. If you are a beginner bowler like me "This is the ball for you.

Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Red/Silver:

First time in a league, started with a plastic ball and an average of 110, never used a finger tip ball before. Bought this ball, by the end of the fall league my average was 140, most improved average. We also won the League Champion ship. Outstanding ball to start out with if you never used a finger tip ball.

Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Red/Silver:

This ball is awesome! It goes where you aim it and knocks pins down, Very predictable and with a small amount of effort it curves nicely, I don't care for the hook and curves built into the ball, Some do but not me, This is a great choice for the average weekend bowler, I liked it so much I bought one for my wife after my first time using it.

Service & Delivery comments:

Your service is AWESOME! I wish all my mail orders went this well, you are the standard I compare others to.

Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Red/Silver:

I bowled for a many number of years and then quit 10 years ago. Just getting back into it and I wanted a ball that had some hook to it that was affordable. I looked at lots of different balls along the way and decided on this one. I used to have a dull resin ball that I could play on the one/two board standing all the way to the left and bring it back to the pocket great. Tried it with this ball and found out the hard way that it does not have that type of reaction. I have since straightened up my line to the two/three arrow standing on the last dot on the left. It really does have good backend reactions but be careful, if I miss the mark to the right at all it slides hard and will not break back. And if you go left of mark I have missed Broklyn because of the back kick. I will give it this much my first week average was 165 learing how to throw it, I got it the night I bowled for the first time, and then ended up with a 195 for an eight week league with a 679 high series. I would recomend this for someone that has just started and would like to practice with a ball that hooks.

Comments about Brunswick Slingshot Red/Silver:

I use this in my bowling league and its pretty good. This is a great ball and i would recommend it for anyone whos is just starting bowl and wants to learn how to hook. I have it drilled with the pap right under my ring finger and it hooks alot on dry to medium oily lanes. on heavily oily lanes you would think its a house ball, I definitely would not reccomend this as anything other than a begginer ball. My average only went up about twenty points but i didnt get it drilled very aggresively because i plan to use as a spare ball after i get a storm prodigy . If your just getting in to bowling and want a ball thats decent this is a good ball to get.
