This will be more aggressive than the Rhino for the Rhino is an entry level ball and the Nitrous will be a Mid performance ball.

Question:


you said ball for 14-16 pound on got same core and other is generic core only. generic core mean less hook or not hook at all?

10/22/2019 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


The generic core is usually a little bit weaker than the higher end core but it would still give you hook potential. Also, the core is not the only thing that helps the ball hook. The coverstock also helps and the ball has the same coverstock on all weights.

Question:


Is this a good ball for beginners?

11/10/2019 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


Yes, this ball was designed to work on medium to lighter oil conditions and it has a medium hook potential. This would be good for someone who likes to bowl but maybe is just starting out and just bowling on open bowling nights when the lanes are usually lighter oil.

Question:

12/2/2019 - By

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


This is a mid performance ball so it would not have a high hook potential, but you could try cleaning the ball after every game to avoid collecting too much oil on the ball. You may also view bowling balls on our site that are designed to react best on medium to heavy oil lanes.
