It’s so cool that you state what adjustment you plan to make, and then see you execute it, along with the result. One would hope that bowlers would learn from this.
I have a DV8 Instigator I bought at a thrift store for $7 and love it. Yesterday I bought the Verge online and hope it performs for me as well as it did for you. Of all the balls I've tried the DV8's work best for my game. Very predictable in oil.
As a very rev dominant player, this ball hooked a lot more than I thought it would, it was frustrating to learn where I could fit it in my bag. I moved all the way left, threw it at max speed, and it strikes every time now. I love this ball.
Yep, you helped convince me to put my order in this week for this ball. It should fit nice between my Brutal Collision and Damn good verge pearl. The Damn good verge pearl gave me my first 300 last league season. I match up well with symmetrical cores and look forward to this one with HK22.
4:41 wow that ball took off. Dig all the info you give Nick, I am thinking of a med oil ball, and I’m down too the Bigfoot Hybrid HK22 or the new Verge HK22. Appreciate your input. Thanks Nick
NICK!!! You KNOW…the ONLY cookies an 8 pin would sell are ALL after the expiration date?!?!?!?! And probably not even the classics…just the new skinny-thin-a-lots!!!! But seriously…the first ball you threw with that…I could play there all night long!
New to the channel. Love the videos. I’m in need of a game 1 oil ball. I’m thinking of the mindset for sure. Then trying to figure out a ball for a step down from that? This could possibly work. What do you think? I throw around 16mph. I have low oil stuff. Any ball you recommend below the mindset? Thanks nick.
@@brunsnick through the mindset for the first time tonight. And switched to the verge hydbrid game 3. Worked out perfect as the lanes went away in league. 704 out of the box. Thanks again. Back at it tomorrow!
my infinite physix is a beast on the fresh playing tighter angles but after games 2 or 3 it starts burning up. would this be a good ball to get inside and hook the lane with because my infinite does not take big angles well
I had a rotogrip mvp that was 2 solid and 1 pearl. Great ball. I had to switch down in weight because of a bad lower back. Do you think this would compliment my hellcat XLR8 . I need something to go a little longer in the later frames

I haven’t heard the word hella in 15 years since I left Monterey. Thank you for that memory😂
LOOKS AMAZING

Cool video talk tech bowling bowling ball

You got that right! 🤣

No Samoas no deal!
@@brunsnick chocolate and coconut goodness! My man!
I have this one on order. It’s replacing my Bigfoot Pearl.
This Verge vs the Emerge. When the backs start hooking a lot do you think this would be a good compliment to the Emerge?
It would but I think maybe Emerge/Cuda Pearl/Crypto Boom would be the cleaner choice.
Man i really need to learn how to play straighter and being able to adjust my roll cuz league has been tough trying to play it left😂
Feel like we'll be seeing a lot of this ball
You throw it good Nick!

This would be a good mid range ball to step down from Mindset. It’s cleaner and more responsive and will pick up where the other left off.
@@brunsnick thx nick

Glad to hear it! 🙌🏻
This ball's colors remind me of the DV8 Vandal Destroy.
Much more vibrant but similar pallet
This ball, at the 14lb weight, gives me consistent 200+ games.

I think going to a symmetrical is probably a good idea, but I liked the Ethos better playing in than the Verge Hybrid personally.
Noice!!
I'd like to see how this compares to the Xponent
Won’t be done here sorry
What’s the difference between the 4.5” and 5” pins you throw?
I use 4.5 on symmetricals and 5 on asyms
@@brunsnick what’s the reason for different pin distance?
How does this compare to the dark web hybrid
For me, a bit more angular and easier to use playing deeper angles. The Dark Web Hybrid was better playing straighter.
Is that ball two parts solid one part pearl?
Not sure on ratio
I had a rotogrip mvp that was 2 solid and 1 pearl. Great ball. I had to switch down in weight because of a bad lower back. Do you think this would compliment my hellcat XLR8 . I need something to go a little longer in the later frames
Do you leave them at box for the review
Yes always
Also when you move your feet left are you moving your eyes and if so how many boards
@@joshuapaugh8271 usually 3ish with every 5 board move.
Gush of oil?!?!? The ball didn’t travel in any of it 😳 ball did hit hard.
