The Rattler strikes, and strikes, and strikes again. With a ball reaction like a snake attacking its prey, the Rattler uncoils and drives hard and fast through the backend with a vicious attack. The Rattler provides unmatched reaction at the performance price point. Don't be caught without one in your bag.
Reaction Characteristics
Out of the Box: With its high gloss polish surface, the Rattler matches up well on most house conditions.
When Dulled: The Rattler's hooking action will increase and its arc will become more even, creating a better match-up for medium-oily lane conditions and for smoothing over/under reactions seen that are sometimes encountered on wet/dry lane conditions.
Reaction SetupThe Rattler can be drilled using the standard drilling techniques developed for two-piece balls. The Rattler is surfaced with Brunswick's
Factory Finish High Gloss Polish which increases its skid-snap characteristics. Shiny surface finishes can sometimes skid too long, resulting in reduced backend reaction and hitting powers. To increase traction, roughen the surface with Brunswick's
Factory Finish Rough Buff.
