I think it’s actually a bit earlier and smoother, it feels like it’s trying to roll a little sooner and it definitely rolls a bit heavier, but realistically the difference is pretty small. It’s a really smooth and blendy ball that’s squarely in Phaze 2 territory. 051 differential in 15 pounds, and it’s very strong, early, and rolly, reminds me a lot of the Centripetal HD core from the Son!Q and Super Son!Q, so I think that’s why the Zen has been so popular, it’s the best of several different worlds. The Meditate core is the same one from the Zen, 2.49 RG and an. Global covers give you some semblance of their strength with the number in the cover name, S77 is getting up on the strong side and is currently Global’s second strongest cover, and it feels like it’s in Incite territory, or like the solid version of that coverstock would be the best frame of reference, it’s really strong, early, and smooth. Angel’s layout as always is 5 x 3 ½ x 3 ½, putting the pin above her bridge, mine is 4 ¾ x 3 ½ x 3 ½, putting the pin in my ring finger, and because this is a symmetric core, the cg placement doesn’t matter. The Zen Master features the S77 Response solid coverstock and incredibly strong symmetric Meditate core.

Order one from your local pro shop today! My ball review videos are posted on YouTube channel Stanley Waite. This is a great ball for all levels of bowlers. Just like the Pearl the Zen Master strikes a lot. I was also able to stand right of 20, play the track area and swing it outside of five with great success. As a mid to low rev player, I was able to move left of 20 and open the lanes up. I tested this ball on 44 feet typical house pattern. This is the most aggressive symmetric ball I have in my arsenal. The Zen Master features the S77 response cover combined with the Medtiate Symmetric core, which is the biggest core 900 Global has ever put into a bowling ball.

The Prime 800 Series greatly anticipated Zen Master does not disappoint and is an excellent complement to the Zen Pearl. I don't think you'll go wrong with this purchase. Put a spare ball in the mix and you have a 3-ball arsenal that should be able to hit most league conditions if you’re not inclined to bring a lot of equipment to league. Pairing this one with the original Zen is a great 1-2 combo for any bowler. This ball will appeal to a wide range of bowlers.

If you’re a little more rev dominant I don’t see any issues with you moving inside and getting this one to turn the corner for you. I can see speed dominant players being able to stay a little further right in the dry and have success. You’re going to need oil up front for this one. That’s covering some real estate for me and gets through the pins. Getting around it more and was able to move in between 3rd and 4th arrows and give the pocket away to around the 6-7 board. I was able to back my hand out and play between 1st and 2nd arrow and get it to tumble. I went with the same layout on the Zen Master as I did on my Phaze 2 and it’s a good 4-5 boards stronger for me.īall is receptive to hand position changes. Still a super controllable shape, just much stronger and earlier than the Phaze 2. When first seeing the RG and differential numbers on the Zen Master I wondered just how different it would be from a Phaze 2. Any time I can put a strong symmetrical ball in my bag, it’s going to be a good day. Wasn’t going to make the same mistake with Zen Master.
