My New Go-To Benchmark Ball
The GB4 Hybrid is the first ball out of my bag on just about all conditions unless I know there’s a ton of oil. This benchmark predictable rolling ball allows me to start where I know I’m comfortable and to assess what changes I might want to make. I drilled mine a short pin, pin down layout of 80 x 2.25 x 75. This has given me smoother motion with a controlled backend. It does not struggle to hook, just controls the backend beautifully. The Game Breaker line has been super successful for a reason, and this one might be the best of the bunch for me. https://youtube.com/shorts/wpT7_SkYfKI?feature=share

It's a GameBreaker!
Ebonite's latest release, the GB 4 Hybrid maybe my favorite GB4, to date. Definitely fits right in between the GB4 solid and pearl versions. Goes a little longer than the solid with more rounded motion. But, not as long as the pearl, which has a more angular motion. The GB4 Hybrid with the added HK22 base, makes this purple/black beauty stand out in the mid performance category and on the lanes, too.

Exceptional Ball Shape and Motion!
It has been a very long time since I have thrown an Ebonite ball. Hybrid balls have worked incredible for me in the past and I had heard many great things about the Game Breaker line of bowling balls. I have to say that I am very impressed with the GB4 Hybrid. This ball has exceptional hook ability. With the added HK22 additive to this ball, the backend ball reaction is just incredible! I put a basic leverage drill layout in this ball. It allows me to move more left and open the lanes up, knowing the ball will recover. With my ball speed, I altered the surface a little to have the ball read more in the mid-lanes. When this ball sees friction, it responds with dynamic ball shape and motion which makes pins just fly everywhere. The big core with the HK22 additive makes this ball an incredible choice for all levels of bowling and is a must have in your bag. This ball for me works on heavier volumes of oil with my surface adjustment. Without altering the surface, this ball is very versatile and can be used on various lane of conditions.

Ebonite GB4 Hybrid
I am a big fan of 2.48 & 0.048 RG & Diff numbers. I've liked every ball I've drilled that started with these numbers and the GB4 Hybrid is no exception. The polish on this hybrid allows it to get through the front part of the lane easily while the HK22 additive and big core allow it to stand up and hit down lane. I think this ball will be good on a variety of conditions.
