Brunswick Combat Bowling Ball

The Combat is engineered specifically for medium to heavy oil lane conditions. Its pearl reactive coverstock and asymmetrical core are designed to cut through oil while maintaining enough energy to react strongly on the backend.

This ball features a skid-flip motion. It glides easily through the front part of the lane and then makes a sharp, aggressive turn toward the pocket once it hits the dry backend.

While it is a high-performance ball, it is generally better suited for intermediate to advanced bowlers. The aggressive skid-flip reaction requires a consistent release and understanding of lane transitions to control effectively.

The Rampart core is an asymmetrical design that provides superior motion control. This shape helps the ball create a distinct, predictable shape on the lane, which is essential for navigating complex oil patterns.

The HK22C - Alpha Premier Pearl coverstock is a modern formulation designed for enhanced traction and energy retention. It allows the ball to grip the lane surface effectively without sacrificing the backend snap that pearl balls are known for.

Yes, the ball comes with a 500, 1000, 1500 Siaair / Crown Factory Compound finish. You can certainly adjust the surface with sanding pads to change how early or late the ball reads the lane, depending on your specific needs.
