Brunswick's Powerkoil XF wrist brace for right handed bowlers is designed to help increase their rotation. You can fine tune your adjustments forwards and back with the adjusting screw to help control your revs.The lateral adjustment allows you to modify your forward roll or spin. It is a great training aid that will help you develop consistency in your game. The extended finger will increase your side rotation that will give you a better entry angle into the pocket.

Might be 5 - I love it.

Bought this for 2 reasons. 1)I knew my release was really inconsistent. 2)But finally decided to buy when I injured my wrist. At the age of 52 joints just don't work like they used too :)
I have used this on 4 separate trips to my home alley. At first it was feeling very awkward with this device. On my fourth trip I noticed something I have been missing for a long time. (maybe never had). I find that my ball has a very consistent reaction or arc on every throw. It is the same from the first game all the way through the fifth game. My release is much improved and I am seeing consistent revs on my ball. My release point is much different from free hand so hitting my marks consistently is still an issue. However I have no wrist pain so this makes the learning curve well worth the price!
When I finally master the release point my buddies are gonna get their butts whipped!!

Before using this brace my hands used to hurt after just a couple games. Now I can bowl all night and my hands are perfectly fine. also now if i bowl with out it my muscle memory takes over and i can keep the form I had while wearing it. The reason i didnt give it a 5 is that it is a little bulky and it can be somewhat uncomfortable after a few games.

This wrist support is good, but not the best, the Storm Gadget XF is the best I have used. I bought this because all my friends are using the Storm Gadget XF, so I decided to try something else. The medium size Storm Gadget XF is just a bit too big for me, and small size fit me so perfectly, so I ordered a small size for this Powerkoil XF. It is not as small as the Storm Gadget XF, so I don't feel so comfortably fit. The quality is also not as good as the Storm Gadget XF. This explain why it is $20 cheaper than Storm Gadget XF. The padding on Storm Gadget XF is a lot thicker and way more comfortable and feel more secure, compare to this Powerkoil, I still feel my index finger moving around.

The good side of this Powerkoil is it will lock up your wrist, unlike the Storm Gadget XF, you can still bend more after you set your wrist angle. The bottom line is this is a very affordable wrist support for those who never tried b4 and need something to help to get more hook or revs.

I also have a few others Storm and Robby's Revs wrist support in the past. This Powerkoil is very good, just not as good as the Storm Gadget XF

Got this item on Monday and decided to try it out that night before league on Tuesday. I have a 168 average and the first night rolled 229, 177, 170, 201. I played with the adjustments to see what worked best. Next night in league with more oil on the lanes I had a harder time just reaching my average, but other bowlers kept saying "You have some serious revs on that ball. At the back end the ball (virtual gavity) would really hook up and take a sharp left turn. I had to dial down the cupping by the third game as the ball was just blowing through and leaving me several ugly 5 pin splits. I love the fact that it is adjustable and with practice and trial and error I am sure it will improve my game!

Hey BB.com, League night last thursday, my Brunswick Powerkoil XF arrived that morning. Strapped it on that night, made a couple of adjustments, then threw a 3 game series of 675! It is comfortable to wear, it certainly kept my wrist and hand in a constant position, and the release of the ball and rotation were definitley more consistant. I will be recommending this product to others. Rock n Bowl - OzziePete.

Seems to be a good, efficient product. It is/ feels much different than my 20 yr. old straight wrist support. My average this year has been 178-185. However, I've used it in eight games, two in practice, and shot: 181,193,202,205,211,216,228,237. It seems to do as it says ... make for a good roll/ rev. I believe it'll be an asset.

The Brunswick Powerkoil I purchased is teriffic.
it was the best price anywhere. Delivery was very fast.
The Powerkoil takes some getting used to, but then it's a great help.
In 2 weeks my game has improved 15 pins.
