What kind of Rhino do I have?

[Rico1234]

Hi Folks,

I'm not sure if I'm in the right place but I'll go ahead and ask anyways. I just started bowling and like most other begginers, I'm using a handed down, hand me down. I'm really don't know much about the characteristics of the ball I am using, and I can't find anything on the web. The ball is marked with the Brunswick "B" and the word Rhino. Nowhere does it have the word Brunswick. It is predominately orange with some purple swirls and light sparkles in the finish. Also, it's drilled as a fingertip ball right now. Any help would be appreciated. I am past the "straight ball" stage and I'm not able to hook this ball much. I'm considering a new ball. I don't know if my inability to get much hook is due to the type of ball I am using, or if it's my technique. Obviously if this ball is designed to hook, I will keep it and just work through it.

Thanks in advance.

That sounds like the Rhino plastic ball. If so it is a straight ball and if you are wanting to have some turn you will need to get another ball.

If your getting your first performance ball... and you want Brunswick.. I'd say go with the Power Groove black/sparkle.. It can be used on just about anything you'll see in THS layouts... The ball will move for you..
If you don't want particle.. then try the Power Groove Reactives..

BOTH for under 100 bucks..

hope this helps..
