This ball has more value than any other that I have ever thrown. It is the most useful entry-level ball that I have ever thrown by far. I use this as my benchmark ball no matter where I go. The versatility of this ball allows for multiple angles and shapes. The pearlized coverstock allows it to get down the lane and save energy for the backend, where it turns way more than any other entry-level ball I’ve ever had! If you’re looking to get more bang for your buck, then this is definitely ball for you.

This ball is perfect for the fried out conditions of the burn squads in long tournaments, or even for the later games on a league night. I drilled this ball to be fairly long and controlled on the backend for those fidgety late-day reactions. The combination of the Break core and the S70 Pearl coverstock is pure genius. Its rare to find a ball that gets through the pins this well on burnt out conditions. The Ops line just keeps getting better with every entry and the Desert Ops is no exception. I’m guessing that I will be using this ball very frequently throughout the next collegiate season.

This is another ball that I will use frequently on the collegiate circuit. The angle that this ball creates on the back part of the lane is simply ridiculous. This ball is great for the times when you want maximum length and maximum backend. This would be a ball to use after the Inception/Redux and before the Desert Ops. When the lanes are just starting to transition, and you need a little more length, this is the ball to go to. There is a reason that it is in the Tour Preferred Series. This ball is a must-have in a well-rounded arsenal.

This ball is the ultimate pearl! The S71 Pearl coverstock creates that great Hockey Stick motion that everyone loves to watch. This ball is great for medium oil patterns because it can slide through the heads easily and makes and absolutely jumps off the spot on the backend. The Honey Badger is probably the best pearl ball I’ve ever had, and the cool gold color is an added bonus!

This ball is fantastic on the medium/heavy oil patterns. I have a very strong, midlane layout on this ball and it cuts through the oil like no other. I always carry this one in my bag and often use it when the backends get touchy. This ball reads the midlane beautifully but still drives through the pins like a truck. This ball is for you if you’re looking for an aggressive midlane ball to smooth out your reaction and cut through the medium-heavy oil.

The Inception DCT is HUGE. The DCT (Divergent Ceramic Technology) has the strongest coverstock that 900 Global has come out with so far. The S86R coverstock rips through heavy oil. It is perfect for long oil patterns with heavy volume. The new design of the core gives this ball a ton of flare potential; when put together with the super strong coverstock, this ball hooks through the oil and hits the pins like a truck. It’s always the first ball out of my bag when I’m bowling on heavy oil.

This ball is the perfect compliment to the original Inception. It’s perfect for maintaining angle an carry late in the day, especially at collegiate events. The moment that the Inception starts to pick up too soon or hook too much, I can grab the Inception Pearl out of the bag and get the ball down the lane while maintaining that angle without losing carry.

Color: Carbon/Teal/Yellow

Flare Potential: 5-6″ plus

This is one of the most aggressive pieces that I have ever had. The first shot out of my hand blew me away. All of the aggression in this ball comes from the coverstock. The S80R Coverstock is the most aggressive in the 900 Global lineup and it really shows on the lanes. The Adaptor Core was modified specifically to accommodate this coverstock. This ball is a perfect compliment to the original Inception. I generally use the Inception first, and the Redux after some breakdown when I need some more angle on the backend. It is a must-have for difficult sport patterns!

This is another ball that is extremely clean through the front part of the lane. The S74R coverstock makes the ball extremely versatile and can be an asset to many types of players. Speed dominant players can get the backend they need, while cranker-style players will get the length they need before a strong finish. The motion is very predictable and doesn’t over-hook. This ball is also a perfect complement to other balls such as the Inception or Truth.
