“This thing is so fun to throw!  I feel like it lets me do whatever I want to do on fresh”, stated EJ Tackett about the new Trident™ Horizon.   Utilizing a hybrid edition of Coercion™ MXC cover technology, the Trident™ Horizon exudes strength, power, and incredible versatility. 

A solid version of Coercion™ MXC powers the impressive Forge™ Flare.  “It is so strong, that some high rev rate players are forced to use fiercely steep angles and sometimes throw it over the front of the lane to use it even on fresh”, said PBA® Tour Rep Brett Spangler.  “It just makes sense to merge this phenomenal shell with a higher RG core and less aggressive finish.”  And that is precisely the design focus behind the Trident Horizon.

Utilizing new Coercion™ MXC Hybrid Reactive cover technology, the Trident™ Horizon digs in the oil yet still manages to continue down lane to a degree that confounds many bowlers.  Tuned with a 4000 Grit LSS finish, it showcases more clearly the down lane motion potential of the Coercion™ MXC technology. 

To maximize continuation, the Trident™ Horizon utilizes the versatile asymmetric Sidewinder™ core.  Featuring a higher RG and lower intermediate differential, it clears the front of the lane much easier than the more powerful solid balls for heavier oil volumes and retains energy to provide ferocious continuation.

    Fantastic ball even if retired.

    I am lucky enough to currently own this ball. I was extremely fortunate to find this ball still sitting at the pro shop I go to. I was hypnotized by the shelf appeal of this ball on its own. This ball is a beautiful looking ball, trust me this ball has so much more going for it then just its looks! It performs better then its shelf appeal. I am able to throw this ball inside throwing my normal line shot in league and can easily adjust with this ball when needed. This ball easily glides through the front of the lane, and flows easily down the lane and just wreaks havoc on the back end and destroys the pins. The ball effortlessly makes a back end move without losing energy. I am able to also play straighter in the oil as well and allow the ball to move on the back end without an over reaction. I also had error room the past league night with the ball. If I missed left the ball sat and would not over react. If I missed right the ball turned the corner on the backend and destroyed the pocket. This ball is a lot of bang for your buck. If anyone is looking for a fantastic looking ball that performs just as good if not better then what it looks. Look no further, if you are lucky enough to find one purchase it I absolutely love this ball.

    Perfect for my game

    Going all Motiv gear after this ball. Love the later snap this has through the center of the lane. I can miss inside also and it still carries luckily. Highly recommended for mid to high oil shots.
