Ebonite's Magic Touch is the perfect compliment to the Magic.

Pin to PAP(5 1/8" over 1/8" up) - 4 1/2" above ring finger
Mass Bias Position - 4" from PAP right of the thumb
CG Placement - just right of center
Balance Hole - none

Surface Preparation - Out of Box

What I Was Looking For In This Ball Layout:
I was not a huge fan of the Magic, it was one of those balls that just did not roll very good for me. This is not a bad thing just sometimes balls do not match up well for certain bowlers. All the more reason we try and give you a variety of styles on our videos. This way if you throw the ball similar to
one of us we can be your test dummy before you purchase.

Since I wanted to give the Magic Touch a fair test I used the recommended layout from Ebonite. You will see this layout on a lot of balls out there because it is pretty safe and 99% of the time we know what it will
do. It should let the ball get down the lane without too much early motion and make a fairly aggressive move on the back towards the pocket.

What I Ended Up With in the Ball and Layout:
Alright so whatever went wrong with me on the Magic was corrected on this ball. The Magic Touch was a totally different ball for me. It rolled just as I would have expected a shiny high performance ball to roll. It scooted
through the front without really reading any friction and made a very strong move on the back. Overall this may be one of the best ball motions I have seen from Ebonite's upper performance line of balls in a while. We have not yet tested the Evolve but to this point the Magic Touch is on top for Ebonite.

I threw this bowling ball with the out of box finish.

I have not had much luck in the past with the Ebonite bowling balls, however, I did like the Magic Touch. The ball was definitely clean through the heads.

If you watch the video, you can see that I was able to stay in a little deeper than I usually do because of the strong backend motion. I was crossing the arrows around 17 with a breakpoint around 12.

It is my job to be objective, that is what I am consistently told. I am an Ebonite staffer who test balls. Again and again I am told to give my feedback, once the ball is released I am highly advised review the product positively. I review on another web site but less and less people go there so I wanted to make sure this got out on the largest online site, or at least that is what I am told and what research shows.

The short of it save your money, this is recycled technology by a company that is hurting and floundering under its current leadership. The ball is nothing special and I have found it to hook less and less with each throw. My advise save your money. If you decide I have a personally axe to grid, which I assure you I do not, I would like to hear your reviews on this site if you plop down the money for this ball. The Ebonite Magic Touch will not improve your game.

This is a good ball. i use it when the lanes start to get dry. It has a good arc but the back end is lacking a little bit. it is a good ball to have though.

I laid my ball out 4 x 4, like the rest of my bowling balls. I was very disappointed with the reaction. It was not nearly as strong as I was told it would be. The ball tended to skid a lot further than expected and did not make the turn at all. I was disappointed with the carry and would not recommend this to any bowler who is serious about their game.

I love this ball! I drilled mine 4x4 and took the surface to 2000. I don't have alot of hand, and doing this gave me the pop I needed on the backend. Very clean thru the front part of the lane. I watch Couch throw his, and it is amazing! I expect Ebonite, with it's new releases, to be a permanent fixture on T.V. this year. This ball is a perfect compliment to the Magic.

It is OK but it really seems to be more of the same thing. Nothing different or innovative. I like the roll but I like the roll on most of the balls I have. If you don't have a ball then its ok. You may want to look at the Virtual Gravity or the Virtual Energy, my teammates bought these and I have thrown them, they are good.

Used it for 6 games and let one of my fellow teammates have it. I have no use for a ball that can't read the lanes consistently. I tested this against other balls, I can't say which, I am on Ebonite staff and was very disappointed with this balls ability to carry when it hit the pins. I will stick for my other stuff for now. Looks like it is going to be another year with nothing but Storm, Roto and Brunswick making the shows on the PBA.
