I really like the motion of this ball. Looks like it would be a good choice for a 1960's old school Full Roller like myself. Just down and in right at them.
I mean it bud. Ya show us all angles, speeds and you actually hit your spot majority of the time. When I know a ball I’m interested in is coming out I come right to your page. I’ve always really liked Brunswick, Columbia, and Hammer so it’s perfect. Minus the occasional 8 pin 😂 you do a great job thank you! Hammer Effect next ball in my bag!
Just shot 290 a few hours ago doing this😆 Long live the inside shim! 5 games only 1 under 200👍 Love having all the miss room in the puddle instead of fighting the outside. Suits my style. Good vid Nick✌️
Observation: this ball goes through the pins quite well, very little deflection. Prediction: it will probably work best for bowlers who are speed dominant.
I bought this ball today. Wish me luck. 9 months of no thumb and drilled this today switching to traditional. Loosing all my revs so hoping the strength of this ball makes up for my revs loss
I would love a video on what balls would be good for a beginning bowler and what balls would specifically not be good for a new bowler. Also what balls are more versatile vs what balls are more "one trick" or situational.
I really like the motion, almost urethane-esque. Issue for me is that I drilled a GB2 Solid and I just could not get the 10 out. I was forced inside since I am a little rev dominate and wondering if the lower diff in the 16s kind of contributed to the lack of carry. Not really sure. I tried taking the surface up to 3000 but did not work. Only thing I did not try was polish but that was not the reason I drilled it up in the first place. I just never saw enough oil where I could square up and play the track area. I still have it and believe it was about 10 years ago when I punched it up. I may need to pull it back out as the lanes probably have a little more oil than they did 10 years ago and see what happens.
I like the continuous predictable roll of symmetrical balls. I am speed dominant about 20-21 mph off my hand and 18mph down lane. I usually stand 25 and throw over 12 board. Do you feel this ball will respond well to speed and playing straighter? I do excellent with this style using dv8 verge hybrid on a medium oil house shot.

By far best reviews out there!!
Appreciate that!

Great choice, that ball will be a winner!
Question for you? Does the speed in Specto differ from the speed tracking system on the lanes? Is Specto the speed at release?
Specto tracks everything. I show launch speed and entry speed. Entry speed is what you would typically see on a scoring monitor at a center.
Another great ball review by Brunsnick.
Brunsnick is the only staffer left on my subscribe list.
Because of you. I have gb5 and high speed. Keep making great videos
Thank you Mack!

Spot on. 👍🏻
I know my guy TJ loves the GB series 🔥
Me too. Lots of fans at my fave alley.
I needed an 11 lb. ball. My pro shop guy recommended the GB5. It has a very strong dull coverstock. Bowled 199 today! I love it.
Already have this pre-ordered. It will be replacing my GB4 solid for next league season.
Would love to see this baby lane shined up.

Ball looks Absolutely Great for a Player like myself that plays Straight
I think so too. Ride the oil line and stay there as long as you can. 👍🏻
Dang missed the live this time. Literally just came home with a new gb4 sat down and seen this video 🤦🤣
GB4 Hybrid? I've got that. Great ball. Very popular too.
Brunsnick, nice video! Not the flashiest piece, but a good benchmark for those tougher conditions. Any thoughts on comparison to the Track Stealth?
This is earlier and smoother for me.

That ball would be great shined up

Absolutely will with your speed. 👍🏻
Just shot 300 with the outer limits. When is the pearl video coming Mr. Nick?
Soon!
Could this replace a DV8 Damn good Verge solid?
Looks like it could!
Absolutely.
I just got the GB5 drilled up over weekend. Good ball however a little slow moving. Did bowl back 2 back 239 in league play
Goes through pins well but for low rev low speed bowler this ball might be tough to handle
Hi Brunsnick! Any chance you could do a comparison video between the Ebonite Game Breaker 5 and the Game Breaker 2? It would be much appreciated! :)
Likely no sorry
GE I received a katana and I was wondering what's a good dual angle layout
How would you conpare this ball to a Hammer Envy Tour?
This ball looks like it has some teeth. Might have to take the surface up or add compound and/or polish. Can't wait to get it and give it a try.
Phaze 2 replacement?
Getting this piece soon , probably earlier than a iQ tour right ?
No idea on competitor products sorry. But this is smooth, rolly and easy to control.
I noticed a little hole between the pin and the CG? what is that and what does it do?
Vent hole for ring finger.
Takes away a lot of the pop sound when he throws it.
Looks like a lot of cover. How do you think this would respond to a 3-4000 grit pad, or even polish?
Would probably make it more mellow, can play straighter and slower with less surface.
Ronald Hickland has a video of it with different surfaces and polish. Ball is impressive.

That's the first barbecue I've ever seen you do that you just don't match up with. It seemed like you were really struggling with that ball.
HOLLY MOLLY😮
Would this be a bargain compared to the effect?
It’s not really a bargain because the ball reactions are very different.
How does this compare to the Stealth solid?
Smoother. Earlier.
How does it compare to the GB2?
Much stronger cover. Digs in earlier.
