    Default Does anyone here own a brunswick nexus? (the original solid)

    ..the blue/pink one.

    I kind of want it for the color but what can you tell me about how useable the ball is?

    I have the nexus solid. It's a very strong ball and I wouldn't really recommend it for leagues. If on the other hand you bowl tournaments I would highly recommend it. Especially if the tournament is on a longer pattern or you want to burn up a track on a medium sport shot.

    I had the nexus p+r and it cracked nearly in half after 6 games. It was a one in a million fluke but it still made me go with a different brand when all said and done.

    I have a neXus solid drilled pin next to ring finger lower corner with a weight hole about 6" from pin. I can tell you it hooks like a mother. It is best used on at leat a 41' or longer oil pattern,otherwise fogetaboutit!

    Too much ball for most people who are open bowling. Weak rollers can use during league. Good for long patterns used in some tournaments for serious bowlers.
