Brunswick Smash Zone bowling ball review

The Smash Zone integrates a pearlized version of Brunswick’s exciting EnMotion™ coverstock with an updated version of the original Inferno™ core and a high gloss polish finish. This combination creates an ultra-low RG symmetric core ball that gets through the front part of the lane then rev’s strongly to create excellent mid-lane recovery and a continuous back-end reaction.

Pin to PAP(4 1/2″ over 1/2″ up) - 5″
CG Placement - 3 3/8″ from PAP
Balance Hole - None

Surface Preparation - Left at Box Finish

Stefanie Nation takes home her first title!

Congratulations to Stefanie Nation for taking home her first title yesterday on the PBA! She took down one of the strongest women bowlers out there in Michelle Feldman. I’ve bowled with Stefanie for many years and I couldn’t have been more happy than to see her win. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a bowler, male or female, who throws it better in the clutch. Stef was throwing the Brunswick MaxXX Zone

Stefanie and I bowled together for the University of Central Florida Striking Knights. I’m proud that she got the chance to get out there and do what she loves to do. Congratulations Stef!
