A stunning, lifelike ocean reef scene that looks like a window into the sea.\n\nLike every Viz-A-Ball, it pairs a symmetric 3-piece core with a durable plastic cover for a straight, predictable path and almost no hook. That is exactly what you want for picking up single-pin spares, for learning the game, or for adding a fun, eye-catching piece to your collection. It is offered in a full range of weights from 6 to 16 lb.\n\nUnderstanding the 3 Piece Core and Plastic\n\nBrunswick built the Viz-A-Ball as a straight-rolling polyester ball for spares and newer bowlers. The symmetric 3-piece core and durable plastic cover deliver a true, predictable path with almost no hook (0 to 1 inch of flare), so the ball goes where you aim it regardless of the oil. The Sea Turtle graphic is sealed under the clear cover, so it never wears off. There are no RG or differential numbers to chart on a plastic ball; the whole point is a simple, controllable, straight roll.\n\nA Simple Symmetric Core Built for a Straight, Predictable Roll\n\nThe Viz-A-Ball uses a basic symmetric 3-piece (pancake) core. With a low, balanced mass distribution and almost no differential, it rolls end over end with minimal track flare, just 0 to 1 inch, so the ball holds a true straight line down the lane.\n\nThat predictability is the entire point of a spare ball. You can line up at a corner pin, send the ball straight, and trust it to go where you aim without hooking into or away from the pin, no matter how much oil is on the lane.\n\nA Durable Polyester Cover That Skids Straight and Resists Hook\n\nWrapping the core is a durable polyester (plastic) coverstock, polished to a clean 3500-grit shine. Polyester is non-reactive, so it skids cleanly through the oil and resists hooking. That makes the Viz-A-Ball ideal for shooting spares straight, for newer bowlers still developing a release, and for anyone who wants a controllable, no-surprises ball.\n\nThe clear plastic cover is also the perfect canvas for the Sea Turtle graphic, which is sealed beneath the surface so it stays vivid and never wears off through play.\n\nWho This Ball Is Right For\n\n✓Spare Shooters: A dedicated spare ball that holds a true straight line at corner pins regardless of the lane condition.\n\n✓New and Youth Bowlers: A forgiving, easy-to-control first ball for bowlers still developing a release and learning to repeat shots.\n\n✓Straight Players: For bowlers who throw it straight and want a durable, predictable plastic ball.\n\n✓Collectors: A vivid, eye-catching design that is as fun to display as it is to throw.\n\nGood to Know Before You Buy\n\n·Ships polished: The 3500 Grit Polish finish runs clean and long out of the box. For an earlier read on heavier oil, take the surface down at your pro shop.\n\n·Colors vary: Actual colors vary somewhat from the photos shown; no two balls come out of the mold exactly alike.\n\n·Tiny pit holes are normal: A few tiny pit holes in the coverstock are a normal part of the manufacturing process.\n\n·Sold undrilled: Ships without finger holes, so it can be fitted to your hand and span.\n\nBowlersMart Tips: Where the Viz-A-Ball Fits in Your Bag\n\nWhere It Fits in Your Arsenal\n\nEvery serious bag needs a dedicated spare ball, and the Viz-A-Ball is built for the job. Throw it straight at your corner-pin spares and it holds its line without hooking into or away from the pin, no matter how much oil is on the lane. It is also a great first ball for a new or younger bowler learning to repeat shots, and a fun collectible thanks to the Sea Turtle design. Pair it with your reactive strike ball and you have both ends of the game covered.\n\nSurface Adjustments\n\nThe Viz-A-Ball ships polished at 3500 grit and is meant to be thrown exactly as it comes: straight and predictable. Unlike a reactive ball, there is no need to adjust the surface for oil; its job is to hold a true line at your spares.\n\nCoverstock Care\n\nPlastic coverstocks are about as low-maintenance as bowling balls get. A quick wipe with an approved ball cleaner after each session keeps the cover and the sealed graphic looking sharp. There is no oil-absorption to worry about and no surface to refresh.\n\nEarn points on every Brunswick purchase through the Striking Rewards loyalty program.
