Additional product information:
There is no question that the fastest growing and most exciting category in our game is the 2-handed bowler and those that don’t use their thumb. These styles have revolutionized the game, yet there has never been a bowling ball designed with the uniqueness of these players in mind. DV8 saw a need in the market for a ball that would work for traditional bowlers but is specifically designed with 2-handers and no-thumb bowlers in mind, and we are excited to introduce the Trouble Maker.
The shape and features of the Dualistic core are what make the Trouble Maker unique and valuable for “no thumbers.” As you examine a half-ball image of the core, you’ll notice defined areas our engineers built into the design for the two-finger holes to hit specific parts of the core, changing the numbers more dramatically than a typical core shape. There is truly too much technical information to explain in a simple letter. We have developed a series of videos that we will put on our website and social media pages starting on the Information Release Date to explain all of the great benefits of the Trouble Maker; make sure you check them out.

Trouble Maker
I am not a two (2) handed bowler, but this ball is really amazing! I drilled this one a bit differently than my traditional layout. I have scuffed the surface to 1500 and use this ball during the start of league or even during early transition on a tournament pattern. With a 45 x 5.5 x 40 layout, this ball is very controllable with a strong continuation backend motion. I can only imagine what this ball looks like with my regular layout. Although a hybrid, this ball can act as a very good benchmark ball.

I’m not a no thumb bowler. But let me tell you if you use a thumb you are going to see a really strong symmetrical ball. This ball for me will be my strong symmetrical ball. It can be used on heavier volumes oil.

Cutting Edge design!
The Dv8 Trouble Maker is one of the most versatile balls on the market. Multiple drill patterns for optimum performance. For me it give me smooth aggression with the control I need to tackle the hardest patterns!

Trouble in the Making
DV8 and Brunswick hit this one out of this world. The new DV8 Trouble Maker with the all new Dualistic Core is a straight winner. If your looking for a benchmark ball for 2 handers, no thumb bowlers this one is it along with traditional bowlers. The overall motion of this ball is eye popping. The amount of messengers I have been able to send across the pin deck is amazing. Don't sleep on this one folks. The game has changed for the better.

Trouble Maker
Trouble Maker features Dynamicore for more hitting power. The Dualistic core also allows 2-handers to drill in a defined area to change the numbers and reaction more then at typical core shape. Medium to Heavy oil was the intent of this design. Threw this on Cheetah pattern and a great looks with it, once it came off the pattern it was strong but smooth. I did a 45x4.5x40 layout

DV8 nailed this one! I am a one handed righty and love the motion of this ball! Clean on the heads and nice smooth arc on the back end. Actually had a full roller lefty use my ball drilled for me and didn’t roll over the fingers or thumb at all and had a really nice motion just like mine (opposite of course). I recommend this one to bowlers of all skill levels no matter which hand or 2 handed.

Believe the Hype!!!
I am so proud to introduce to you the newest addition to the DV8 line, the DV8 Troublemaker. This ball has had a tremendous amount of time and effort into designing a ball for bowlers of the new bowling revolution…2-Handed Bowlers and bowlers who do not use a thumb. Well, I use a thumb and all I can tell you is this ball is AMAZING! The difference which sets this ball apart from other balls is its uniquely large core design. I am a HUGE fan of larger core bowling balls because they typically roll much better for bowlers with higher speeds and rev rates. The ball is symmetrical, but doesn’t roll like a typical symmetrical ball. My layout in this new ball is a simple stacked layout with the pin and the CG in alignment. Nothing too exotic, but the ball reaction is beyond belief. Pins DO NOT jump around, but almost seem to collapse in on themselves. The ball works incredible on heavy oil. Strangely enough, I have not left many splits with this ball, and how it rolls through the pins is unlike ANYTHING I HAVE EVER THROWN BEFORE! For 2-handed and 2-finger bowlers, YOU MUST HAVE THIS BALL IN YOUR BAG….PLAIN AND SIMPLE!!! DV8 has done it again and bowlers who take a chance on this ball WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!! If you are not throwing DV8, you’re just not bowling!!!
