The Warlock XV is the second of two upper mid performance releases from Visionary Bowling Products this month. For people not familiar with Visionary or for some of our younger readers, the Warlock was a series of balls produced between 1997 and 1998. The sanded XV Reactive is a new coverstock and surrounds the Warlock weight block.

The combination of the two had us striking the most on our heavy oil test pattern. All three testers enjoyed how easily the Warlock XV cut through the oil on this pattern. Stroker was comfortable once he saw the extra recovery on shots
