Amazing benchmark ball

The GB5 has been my benchmark for medium to heavy oil conditions. It's incredibly smooth and predictable. The first time I used this ball was on a heavy oil challenge pattern and averaged 229, and placed 6th for scratch series. I have also been using it in league play, which is on a higher volume ths and have averaged 249 over nine games. I can see this ball being great on a variety of patterns for all types of bowlers.

The GB5 is the Perfect Holiday Gift for Any Bowler

The GB5 bowling ball has been a game-changer for me this season, delivering smooth and controllable performance that’s perfect for house shots. Its consistent reaction has helped me shoot some of my highest scores yet, and it’s quickly become my go-to ball. Featuring Brunswick's DynamiCore technology, it provides excellent pin carry and extra confidence on the lanes.

GB5 Solid

The new Ebonite GB5 quickly proves itself to be the benchmark ball you've come to expect from the Game Breaker series and they keep getting better. Out of the box the GB5 picks up pretty early but remains controllable throughout the lane and through the pins. So far I've only used it on THS and the shot at my local center that can classified by most as a sport pattern. Good job on keeping the tradition with the GB5, Ebonite!!

GB5 Solid

The Ebonite Game Breaker 5 (GB5) is the newest benchmark ball out on the market. It is earlier than the GB4 and much stronger through the pins. I have only used this ball on fresh patterns and house shot, and it does not disappoint. Overall, this ball is smooth through the lane and strong on the hook potential. This is a great option for being the first ball out of the bag for league or tournament play.

Ebonite Game Breaker 5

The new Ebonite Game Breaker 5 has a smooth and strong overall hook that fits right into the "benchmark" category. It's early & predictable so it's generally going to keep you out of trouble, yet it's a ball that you can stay in a little longer because it strong enough to tip around the corner as well. Excellent option for fist ball out of the bag on both House & Sport patterns.

GB5 best benchmark ball this year

I’m so happy to have a Game Breaker back in my bag as my benchmark ball. I drilled mine 50x5x25. It wasn’t as early as the GB4 and it had a little more pop down lane. I really liked that because I was able to stay in my GB5 a little longer before I had to make a ball change.

GB5

It’s hard to go wrong with a Game Breaker. They have a long history of great performance, and the GB5 lives up to the hype. This is the perfect benchmark piece. If you liked the GB4, this ball is just a little stronger. Make sure to pre-order yours today.

GB5!!!

You thought the GB4 was a lot of ball. The GB5 puts it to shame. Oddly enough it still shapes more down lane. A great benchmark ball for those heavier shots. As the cover breaks in it gets better and better.

It's a Game Breaker !

We all know what the Game Breaker series is all about. It's your benchmark type ball at a price point that won't break the bank.
The GB5 is much earlier than the GB4 was. It can handle more oil with more continuation than the 4. All thanks to a stronger cover, the GB 12.7 Solid.
There's a new benchmark ball in town, the GB5 by Ebonite!
