Moves more in what way?

[dustypat99]

Hook

[1VegasBowler]

If you're new to bowling, I think it would be better to start of easier than with the Gold Rhino Pro. It's a high performance ball.

But it isn't all about how much a ball hooks, but where it hooks and when. I much prefer balls with strong continuation instead of being angular.

But if you want a huge amount of hook you can go for the Brunswick Absolute Nirvana or the DV8 Grudge.

I think going with a ball with more hook is the wrong way to go. The Gold Rhino Pro can hook plenty. I think being a new bowler it's more important to learn how to release the ball properly and you'll see that the your ball will hook just fine. You'll also learn that you need different balls for different lanes conditions and not necessarily more hook.

I agree with this 100%.

And as a Brunswick staffer, I can only recommend balls in the Brunswick family line.

What I would also add to this, is, to get a coach.

All balls with the same kind of cover material hook the same amount based on the release of the bowler. The difference is when they hook. Don't worry about another ball. Get a coach and learn how to release the ball to get the hook you want.

I agree with the other comments. The Rhino Pro is plenty of ball for THS conditions. If it's not hooking it's a you problem not a ball problem.

Since no one else has mentioned it, Before looking to get a new ball. Try some surface adjustments first, a couple of bucks for some abralon pads or letting the PSO throw it on the spinner is a lot cheaper than a new ball.


Then you can better decide if a new ball is needed and if so what you need in a new ball or what your looking for it to do for you.

I'm not going to disagree with you where it concerns surface adjustments, because it will have an impact.

But, I'm not a fan of surface adjustments and I'll never disagree with those that do. I just prefer to keep mine with the OOB surface. And maybe it's because I'm fortunate enough to have an arsenal that is diverse enough to make adjustments with a particular ball/balls.
