[Music] That is the ball motion I want to see right there. >> Got no regrets. I'm on the run, chasing a check, dropping the top, riding the vet, telling myself what you expect. You know I'm with it. No better feeling cuz I could have quit but I didn't. When I'm on a mission, moving it up to a better position. and they thought I was tripping. >> What's going on, social media land? So,
I have spoken out about how much I hate the the the uh Infinity Quest from Brunswick. So, this layout was this 60x 5x30. I reached out to um the Brunswick uh one of the core designers. I think he designed this court and I was like, "Hey man, I really hated the first one I drilled. I'm going to try a second one. I'm going to try a second one. What layout should I go with?" That layout ended up being 45x 4 1/2 by
40, right? Those are much different numbers where my typical layout, right, is 60 x 5 by 30. But I wanted to see, right, if I can get it a little bit stronger and maybe blend out my ball reaction a little bit. So that's exactly what I'm expecting and hoping right by the numbers, right? So this puts my pin a little bit closer to my fingers. That also kicks out the mass bias much much further, right? So typically like mass bias was like a like about an inch/ an
inch over from my thumb. Now it's way kicked out there. So I'm actually expecting this ball to pick up quite a bit and again blend though. So, we're going to see. Does this make this ball better? You know, do I just suck or does the ball just don't agree with me? So, but yeah, shout out to getting a Brunswick team. Um, and yeah, man. We're going to see how these balls match up together. So, I did previously hit the Infinity Quest, the original, right, with some surface. Um, and now it's kind
of lane shined a bit, so it won't be like apples for apples. Um, but once we get to the swore pattern, right, I plan to hit the stronger drilled one with surface again, but I'll throw a couple shots with the polish. Uh, and for for context, right, I'll just add, right, some previous shots with this uh, with the original Infinity Quest uh, out of box or with a polish on it so you can kind of see that ball reaction further. We going to get to business. Hit the links below, man, for everything. We
talking about the shoes. But you talking about my finger tape, vice bioskin that's in there. Then the best inserts, man. Joe poke grips. Uh they have finger grips as well as the best thumb, most secure thumb on the market. Um and yeah, man, the jerseys, man, you know, cool 12 bagger, get over there. Again, links for everything are below. And um yeah, let's have a little fun. And so we're starting on a house shot where I think most people bowl on and we'll take it from there.
Yeah. Going to start middle of the lane. [Music] Hey, that held line I feel like a lot longer than a previous one. So we going to see. Probably still got to get this ball some angle. Probably still gonna need a little angle. This is a strong ball for sure. All right, so I'm I'm moving my five boards from that last shot.
Fell a little bit. That's what I want to see. Like getting revved up. Revved up. Revved up in art. I can live with that. And it it just looked more consistent right in the middle of the lane that I could actually read it compared to the the longer pin different angles.
Layouts matter. I should make that t-shirt. But yeah, there's some new merch out there, too. Like I don't have it on personally, but and also let's just get this out the way too. If you want like just a standard hype logo t-shirt, Coolwick has all the standard like just logo t-shirts. And they have like four colors, right? So it's a black one, navy blue, purple, and green, which is my personal favorite. But this is looking very good.
unlock the code cheat code. So hearing and seeing that particular ball motion like and this is it brings it close to a layout I used to use a lot on different bowling balls which is like drilling the pin or in this case dot right through my actual uh ring finger like that was like a really go-to layout for myself. So, let's do the same thing with this uh
duller one with with the weaker drill one. [Music] Oh, now now this is beautiful, too. Oh, that's crazy. But still a little quicker responding, right? Because in the layouts, right, it just pushes the ball reaction a little bit further. Like I didn't see that ball tumble and rev up nearly as quickly. You kind of see it with all these these colors
>> and not as that not the same amount of authority right through the pins. Right. This the light shaker and kind of light shaker. So, something to keep in mind like this other one's getting to a roll and really driving through the pins. All right, I'm going to throw one more before we switch to the other. Got around it pretty good. All right. So, I don't know if that would have been
any different with a stronger one, but let's see. But I definitely feel like I might go underscore with this ball. [Music] Ah, okay. Again, not too mad at that shot. Missed it in. Didn't hit it a whole lot. I'm honestly hoping this ball allows me to, you know, still stay relatively, you
know, to the right. Right. If I can stay a little bit closer to the big dot, that'd be a big win. So, again, middle of the lane, right? That's this joker moving. I actually have a lot of hope that this ball is actually going to look really, really good on a sport pattern, especially once I add a little surface to it. All right, I'mma really move right. Get on top of it. Break the wrist a little
bit. Boy, that is the ball motion I want to see right there. Again, it's tumbling. I see it. I can watch it go through the pins, you know, even straighter, which y'all know, you know, I'm not the best at, right? I'm not I don't do that every day of the week. Get I don't get opportunity
to do that and work on it, which you should roll, man. like again and I'll you know pause right here and allow right we play some of these shots backwards.
Put some elbow into it. took a lot because I couldn't do a lot of what I'm doing, you know, with the the 5 in pin one because this
this 4 and 1/2 and the these different angles, right? This 45 or 4 and 1/2 by 40 is just, man, looking really good, man. Shout out to uh Brian Buckos. Go check out Brian Buckoff's channel as well, man. So, he's a he's one of the core designers at Brunswick. And again, I think I think think he definitely had a hand in developing this one. And these different numbers, right, definitely are doing a trick for me.
Yeah. I ain't even mad at the temp. I ain't mad at it. I ain't mad. I might need this. I might have to This might stay in the back. This This This has the opportunity. Like I didn't expect that. Try to keep an open mind coming into it, but let's try this cleaner one for straighter. The surface blend out on this one is is
definitely helping a ball reaction. Uh because before like it would just shoot past it if I didn't hit it enough or if I touched it just just enough, right? Like it jerks left, but it's getting there. But like again, it's definitely not picking up nearly the same way that the stronger drilled one is. Like you can just see it kind of just floating, not getting into a heavy roll. Oh,
little too clean. Let's get to the sport shot. All right, so we're going to throw this one out of box because I again out of box is pretty shiny. Expect this one to go pretty long. I'mma stay straight at the dots. I'm closer to 10. I'm probably going to be closer to 15 at the foul line. There you have it. Needs a little surface. I'm going throw
one more. Okay. Keep it in play. It can play. Keep it in play. It can play. Same thing. Oh man. Chucked it in. All right, let's try one more time.
This one might not need no polish, bro. Like that is rolling pretty pretty good. And it has a little bit of transition on the lane. Um I threw a new bowling ball that I can't mention quite yet. And it looked substantial. That that I like it. I like it a lot. I'm going move a little little left. I'm going move 20. I'm go to 20. Probably going to be a little closer to like 23 at the foul line.
Oh, never hook. Okay, I really kind of sat it out there. Got to play a very direct line. We on sport shots, right? Typically the less kind of loop. You only need that big kind of sweeping loop when you move in. But typically, even here, right, I I need to be more just just straight like straight lines because the pattern has defined hook spots and once it hits them, you're it's good. But if I sweep it out there hoping it's going to pick
up like a house shot, it's not going to work. Oh, let's try this again. more speed definitely did the trick. Again, trying to keep more straight line when I'm aiming at the pocket or aiming at again my target down lane like straight lines. I'm trying to not a big loop.
That's looking good. Let's throw the the the older one. A 5 in pin. Different different angles. All right. Same spot. So, definitely felt more directional like that. I feel like that like saw a little quicker. But again, definitely the surface helped and it brought the ball reactions much closer together.
I'm going move right. Yeah. So, I honestly felt like the the stronger one right picked up and got offline a little bit quicker where the 5 in pin one push but it's like storing and going a little more off the spot. All right. Still throwing the the 5 in pin. I'm going move to 25 with this one.
See what we get. So, eh, let's throw another shot. Let's throw another That's what I'm kind of expecting to be more of the norm. Like it got to be a little more perfect because like that one just pushed. Look, but we seen the other one push as well. So
splitting hairs a smidge. But as far as like seeing tracking the ball like going through it phases of ball motion, like I'm definitely more comfortable with the stronger one because I see it like pick up in the middle of the lane more consistently. Yeah. Let's see what this one gives us from Yeah. 25 at the dice. Probably be hovering a lot closer to 28 29 at the foul line.
Yeah. Just you you want to be able to see the hook. Like I feel like on tough it's what you need. And that's that's looking really really good. Stupid. Stupid. Good. That is I am I'm really kind of like in love with this Quest.
I say that and I'll leave that. getting really forward off my hand, but it got to the pocket, right? Yes, I left a crazy thing, but I'm pretty sure if I did this, you know, 10 more times, I'm not going to leave that particular assortment of pins. But, uh, yeah, man. Stronger layout definitely helps, especially when some of these stronger bowling balls like you change the core dynamics a lot. And, you know, Brunswick, a lot of other companies don't do that. I know Radical provide after drilling numbers, but I would be curious to know like, all right, what is
approximately, right? How much did I increase the differential, right? Uh, in this particular bowling ball by drilling it with these different angles because I just got a feeling it's picking up so much quicker, right? I had to have again just exploded that intermediate diff a little bit more on this particular bowling ball. So, yeah, looking pretty good. Oh, that's not going to hook. I got to the bottom. Hey y'all. Forward.
Nothing from deep. That should be good. So that looked exceptional. And yeah, new layout. You need it. Like don't be afraid to I feel like every year just like people try their paps or go you know reevaluate the paps man you need to try some new layouts because man that
helped that ball tremendously and maybe moving forward right that might be the direction I go with asymmetrics that don't have a ton of intermediate differential I can drill them this way right and get a much more balanced you know look on the lanes with it. So yeah, man. Hit the like, subscribe. Hopefully you guys enjoyed this. And uh yeah, man. Some more content is always on the way. Um I'm curious, man. What other content outside of just purely competing, right? Because there's a ton of like lead content, you know, out there. Like what
else would you guys want to see? I'm just curious, you know, like of course people want, you know, more behind thes scenes look at like what I'm doing, you know, just with life kind of. And you know, I may introduce some of those concepts, you know, like, you know, with my daughter and and the rest of my my family. So, but yeah, I don't know. Just comment below, man. What else would you like to see, man? I know this is primarily again a ball review channel. Um, but we can introduce different stuff, but do you want to see that? Like, I don't know. Do I put it on the
Hype Nation channel? I might do that, right? So, I don't know. Talk to me though. Have a dialogue. >> They flock. I'mma keep it moving. the music up. I'mma keep them groove. You sleeping on me, just keep snoozing.
Performance Analysis
Performance Analysis
Testing revealed that the Brunswick Infinity Quest demonstrates significant layout sensitivity, with drilling configuration playing a critical role in overall performance. Independent reviewers found that the standard layouts produced inconsistent ball motion on both house and sport patterns, the ball either over-skidded or failed to enter a strong roll phase. However, when drilled with alternative specifications (45x4Β½x40 versus the original 60x5x30), the reactive pearl coverstock showed markedly improved midlane pickup and pin-driving authority. On the house shot, the stronger layout exhibited better lane reading with more consistent tumbling action through the pins, while the original configuration pushed the breakpoint with less aggressive motion. The asymmetric coreβs responsiveness to layout changes suggests that bowlers considering this ball should prioritize consulting drilling recommendations rather than assuming one configuration will suit their game.
On sport patterns, the Infinity Questβs out-of-box polish provided excessive skid length, requiring either surface adjustments or aggressive hand position changes to stay in play. Testing showed that adding surface to the stronger layout created a more balanced ball reaction with defined hook phases and better pocket entry. The medium-heavy oil design proved versatile enough to handle varying conditions once the drilling matched the bowlerβs style, though observers noted the 45x4Β½x40 layout provided more predictable midlane read and earlier length control than traditional pin placements. One notable finding: the reactive pearl coverstock responded well to surface adjustments, allowing testers to fine-tune reaction from aggressive roll to controlled skid without losing overall motion definition.
Who Is This Ball For?
The Brunswick Infinity Quest is best suited for experienced bowlers who are willing to experiment with layout options and understand how drilling angles affect ball dynamics. This is not a grab-and-throw package; success requires either consulting with a knowledgeable pro shop operator about custom layouts or being prepared to try multiple configurations. Bowlers with moderate to high rev rates and those who prefer seeing distinct midlane motion will find the stronger drilling options rewarding, particularly in medium to heavy oil conditions where the asymmetric core can display its design intent.
This ball also appeals to players who bowl both house shots and sport patterns and want a single coverstock to handle both through surface adjustments. The reactive pearl construction proves forgiving enough for intermediate players once the right layout is found, but the learning curve (combined with the ballβs sensitivity to drilling configuration) makes it less ideal for beginners or bowlers seeking an out-of-box solution. At $169.95, the Infinity Quest represents solid value for committed players willing to invest time in optimization.

The Infinity Quest looks as good as it does on the lanes as it does on the shelf. With the HK22C- Evo Solid cover its proven you donβt need to sacrifice looks for performance. This shiny solid offers more length with a faster response off the friction given you more angular motion than you may be used to.
I haven't gotten it drilled yet, but I'm going to get it drilled ao I can practice with it and get ready for my tournament next month.

BALL SPECS Ball Weight: 15 lbs DRILL PATTERN Ball: 55 x 5.25 x 55 BOWLER STYLE Rev Rate: 375 rpms Ball Speed:17.5 mph off hand PAP/Track: 4 5/8 over 3/4 up SURFACE PREP Grit: 4000 Grit BALL REACTION Length: Backend Back End: Hard Arc COMMENTS: The Infinity Quest is a ball the bridges the gap between the really responsive pearl balls and slower responding solids. This ball has a unique motion and with the proper surface it is very versatile. The Infinity Quest allows me to start to move left and go around the lane once significant carry down has started. If pearl bowling balls are too responsive and late but solid balls are too early and too slow the Infinity Quest is the perfect ball to fill the gap.
