Not Just for No Thumbs and Two-Handers!!!
I am very proud to introduce to you the newest addition to the DV8 line, the DV8 Heckler. DV8 has been at the leading edge by developing bowling balls designed for the two handed revolution. The new DV8 Heckler follows with this new asymmetric Unholy core which is specifically engineered for oily conditions, offering unparalleled performance especially for the no-thumb bowlers. The HK22 cover with Cohesion and Maximum Havoc additives was strategically chosen to match up with the new Unholy core to overcome oily lane conditions. I drilled the new Heckler pin down and with the mass bias down below my thumb, which allows for the ball to roll much heavier on oilier lane conditions. For 2-handed and 2-finger bowlers, this is another incredible ball from DV8 and is definitely a must have in your bag. DV8 keeps on creating innovation in bowling equipment and has done it again with the new DV8 Heckler. If you are not throwing DV8, you’re just not bowling!!!

Pros:
Smooth, Versitile, strong
Best Uses:
House shot, sport shot, PBA
Bottom Line:

Smooth, great movement
Very smooth, great overall hook. I recently came off of back surgery and this is the first ball I drilled. My speed is normally about 19, guessing I am down to about 17 mph now. I love how it doesn’t read the lane too early but hits the break point and drives like crazy. It isn’t too snappy on the back but nice and smooth with continuous motion through the pins. Highly recommend for every level bowler.

Question:
Does a 14 lb ball have the same carry as a 16 lb ball?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The 14lb ball will have the same weight block as 16lbs and very similar strength due to the features but on any bowling ball, as you drop in weight, the ball will carry less through the pins. Unfortunately a 14lb cannot drive through the pins as well as 16lbs.
