The HYSTERIA is a solid reactive ball, with a late roll 69 weight block, and a medium/high flare potential. Box finish is 1500 grit, polished. The color is green/purple.

I used the HYSTERIA on our 39 ft. house pattern, at box finish.

I found, for me, the HYSTERIA got through the heads and down lane very smooth, with a nice turn, and heavy roll to the pocket. The HYSTERIA is similar to the Nomad solid, which was one of my favorites in it’s time. This will be a perfect benchmark ball for me.

I brought the surface to 2000 with no polish, and was able to get this ball to read a little earlier, but surprisingly, it still got through the pins great. I was still able to carry the corners. I added a little polish. The polish, combined with the higher RG in this ball, makes it great for drier patterns as well.

This is a great piece for light/medium and even a bit heavier oil patterns. It is a great ball for all levels of bowlers. If you love the Nomad, and HyRoad, you will definitely be a fan of the HYSTERIA. No arsenal should be without this ball!
