The Rattler strikes, and strikes, and strikes again. With a ball reaction like a snake attacking its prey, the Rattler uncoils and drives hard and fast through the backend with a vicious attack. The Rattler provides unmatched reaction at the performance price point. Don't be caught without one in your bag.

Technology
Activator Coverstock: The Rattler is the first ball with Activator coverstock available at the performance price point. The original Activator coverstock used on the Rattler is a proven formula that provides strong downlane recovery, longevity of ball reaction, and unprecedented durability with superior resistance to cracking.

Low RG Rocket Core
The Rattler uses Brunswick Multi-Sided Rocket Core System, providing a low RG core that when combined with the original Activator produces a ball reaction that is unmatched at the performance price point. Clean through the front with an aggressive move at the breakpoint, the Rattler gives amazing bang for the buck. There isn't another ball in this class that's even close.

High Gloss Finish
The Rattler is finished with Brunswick's Factory Finish High Gloss Polish to maximize the skid-snap reaction out of the box. This surface preparation will allow most bowlers to match-up to both freshly oiled and moderately broken down house conditions.


The Perfect Scale™: Helping Bowlers Make Better Decisions. Because each manufacturer uses a different method for indicating a ball's hook potential, bowlingball.com developed a way for the consumer to compare bowling balls across all manufacturers.

Brunswick has raised the stakes in the mid performance ball category with its new release the Rattler.The Rattler use Brunswick's Activator coverstock (which is one best covers to ever be formulated) around their proven low RG rocket core. I drilled mine with a dual angle layout of 45 X 5 X 65 which puts the pin under my bridge, the cg shifted about 1 1/2 inches to the right, and I had to use a small weight hole down below my mid line. My Rattler had a very strong mid lane roll and a very controllable move to the pocket. On a fresh THS this ball handled the oil extremely well as I started moving left I was a little nervous because sometimes for me low rg cores make the ball lose energy a little too fast and I start leaving weak hits. This ball never seemed to lost its energy as I moved left and circled the pattern a bit more. My pin carry was just as strong at the end of game 3 as it was in game 1. How many times have you started your league with a great ball reaction only to wonder where it went in the 2nd game? This ball allowed me to follow the oil line left without sacrificing any performance or carry and to me that is a sign of a really great ball. Thanks again Brunswick for another a great bowling ball.

I have had the opportunity to throw this particular ball in an array of different tournaments on different patterns and have found it to be very versitile.



It's one of the stronger Brunswick Balls in my arsenal, yet it is not uncontrollable. I have mine drilled pin below my ring finger with the CG kicked out and fidn that it gives me a sharper backend on most conditions.



Overall this is a great ball and will be in my arsenal wherever I am going.

I have only used this ball for a couple of pot games so far. This ball was drilled 5 x 4 with no weight hole. The ball reaction was predictable thru the heads and the backend move was strong off the breakpoint and continuous thru the pins. Though both balls use the Rocket Core, I personally like this ball over the Copperhead. I am certain the reason why is the Activator coverstock....I have another that I am going to drill up but I have no idea how yet...So far, another winner from Brunswick.

I am fairly new to bowling and this is my first aggressive ball. This thing is an absolute scream! I get great length with a vicious hook that disintegrates the rack. My only issue was sending it into the wall a few times until I found the line. The pins sounded like they were exploding. Can't wait to get back to the lanes!!

Drilled using Brunswick large-pin layout 1.

This ball was one of the best I have used, it breaks and hooks about mid lane and continues to move to the pocket. This ball is one of the best values and trust me, almost anyone can buy it, do buy it, this ball should be rated at high performance.

The Brunswick Rattler ball is great ball in their mid performance line. The Rattle is the first mid performance ball to use the Activator Coverstock. I drilled a Rattler for a customer a few days ago and he likes the reaction that he got with it, It was clean thru the heads, revved up in the mid-lane and gave him a strong motion on the back-end.
