A smart choice for a two-handed bowler who wants a controlled, rounder motion as lanes break down. One-handed bowlers using a thumb hole get less benefit from the core design.

Overview
Not a standard thumb hole ball, the Double Trouble is tuned for two-handed and no-thumb bowlers with high rev rates. Its core and cover favor a smooth arc over a sharp skid and flip.
A core optimized for no-thumb drilling helps rev-heavy players stay stable and keep a wider strike window. Traditional one-handed bowlers will not get the same advantage.
Who it's for
Made for rev-dominant two-handers who need a predictable, blended reaction. Bowlers with a classic grip should look at balls designed for thumb drilling.
Pros and cons
- Designed for no-thumb players
- Rounder, predictable motion
- Stronger midlane read
- Less suited to thumb grips
- Only one weight listed
- Drilling not mentioned
Performance notes
The core handles high rev rates without becoming jumpy, and the cover reads early so the ball blends rather than snapping. That shape helps when the lane changes over a session.
