GB4 Pearl
I drilled mine 65 X 4 X 50. The Ebonite GB4 Pearl is the cleanest and longest Brands of Brunswick ball I have thrown yet. The Game Breaker series is one of the most trusted lines in bowling, so I knew this one would be a hit. The GB4 Pearl is the perfect complement to the GB4 Solid when looking for a piece to get down the lane longer and retain energy. You will not be disappointed with this symmetric pearl—another great Ebonite piece to have in your bag.

GB4 Pearl
Ebonite knocked it out with the GB4 Pearl. I do not know why I do not use this ball any more. This ball has helped me salvage my sport/challenge league scores, bailed me out of tournaments (transition), and is a good league ball when I bring it with me. This ball is extremely clean thru the fronts and midlane with a sharp turn once it touches friction. This ball has not lost performance with a light 2000 or 3000 surface.

SMOOOTH
SMOOOOOTH!! I drill mine stack leverage so I can have a tiny flair and get down lane further. This ball goes very far and turns very hard! If you are looking for a ball that can play down and in on multiple lane conditions, look no further! My bread and butter is down and in and absolutely love this ball! This is a must have for any level of bowler.

Another Great Ground Breaker!
Another great ball from the Ground Breaker Series. This ball is clean through the heads with continuous backends. My ball is drilled 70x3.5x40 and it allows me to create the angle that I need as well play straighter lines. I can move inside and get it through the midlane and get tremendous finish. You wont be disappointed in the versatility of this ball. Get you One, or Two!

Ebonite GB4 Pearl, benchmark performance from a pearl symmetric!
The Ebonite GB4 Pearl gives me a benchmark symmetric pearl that fits perfectly between other symmetric pearl balls like the Hammer Raw Pearl (weaker ball) and the Radical Bigfoot (bigger ball). Compared to the GB4 Solid, you can expect a much cleaner ball motion with excellent continuation through the pins. I drilled mine 4 1/4" x 65 to make it read the mid-lane and stretch out the transitions from skid to hook to roll. You can order the GB4 Pearl now from Bowler Builders Pro Shops and pro shops everywhere!

GB4 Pearl!
Another Gamebreaker! The GB4 Pearl is the perfect compliment to the GB4 in any tournament bag. For me, I’m able to start with a GB4 on most conditions and transition into the GB4 Pearl after a couple games, allowing me to stay in the same part of the lane. The biggest difference I have seen with the GB4 Pearl is that it gets down the lane maybe a foot further before making a hard turn to the pocket. Not snappy like previous pearls in the Gamebreaker line but more of a jump than the solid. I for sure will be getting a few more of this one.

GB4 Pearl
Ebonite has done it again. They added to the historic Game Breaker line up with the GB4 Pearl!
The Pearl version will complement the GB4 solid, perfectly. The pearl version floats down the lane longer and with it's enhanced V2 core, retains energy for a strong backend motion.
A versatile ball that will see a lot of action!

Pros:
Clean through the heads, strong move on the backend.

Clean through the heads.
If you are a fan of the Game Breaker line, you'll love this one too. Clean through the front end with plenty of backend from a symmetric core. Perfect compliment to the GB4 solid and Game Breaker Asym.

Ebonite GB4 Pearl is a home run.
Ebonite has hit a homerun with the addition of the Game Breaker 4 Pearl. It compliments the GB4 ( & GB3 for that matter) very well. It is clean through the front and gets well down lane before the V2 enhanced core kicks in and drives the ball through the pin deck. It is quickly becoming one of my favorites. 2.48 & 0.048 have always been great core numbers for me and match up well to my speed (16.5 mph-ish) and revs (420-ish). I threw it against another of my favorites, the Brunswick Melee Jab Blood Red. They had a similar shape, but the GB4 Pearl was about 3 boards with my feet stronger and slightly stronger through the pins. This one goes straight into the tournament arsenal.

Question:
How do i compare this to the hustle wine
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The GB4 Pearl will have a higher hook potential than the Hustle Wine but both have good length and a sharper backend. The GB4 Pearl will work mostly in medium oil while the Wine was more for medium to lighter oil.
