Designed for medium to heavier oil conditions, the Go Time combines the Big Time core with Ebonite's HK22 – GB 13.7 Solid Reactive coverstock, creating a dependable performance option that bridges the gap between cleaner hybrid bowling balls and the strongest hooking equipment in the Ebonite lineup.

Throughout Ebonite's testing, the Go Time stood out for its ability to generate more midlane strength and total hook than the GB5 Hybrid, while still traveling farther downlane than Ebonite's most aggressive hooking balls.

The result is a strong, rounded, and continuous motion that makes the Go Time an excellent candidate for a tournament bowling arsenal, league competition, and bowlers seeking a reliable solid reactive bowling ball.

Whether you're searching for a bowling ball for medium to heavy oil, a strong midlane reaction, or a versatile tournament bowling ball, the Ebonite Go Time is designed to deliver the confidence you need when every shot counts.

Big Time Core – Strong, Predictable Motion

At the heart of the Ebonite Go Time is the Big Time core, designed to provide the rotational characteristics needed for a strong, dependable reaction.

Featuring a 15 lb RG of 2.508 and differential of 0.054, the Big Time core combines efficient rotational development with significant flare potential.

The RG helps determine how quickly the ball begins developing its rotational motion, while the differential influences its track flare potential.

With a differential of 0.054 at 15 lbs, the Go Time has the potential to expose fresh coverstock surface to the lane as it rotates, helping it maintain traction through the oil.

The result is a core design that supports a strong midlane read and a continuous response through the pins.

For bowlers looking for a high differential bowling ball with strong overall hook, the Ebonite Go Time offers a powerful combination of core characteristics and reactive coverstock technology.

HK22 – GB 13.7 Solid Reactive Coverstock – Strong Midlane Traction

The HK22 – GB 13.7 Solid Reactive coverstock is a defining component of the Ebonite Go Time's performance.

Designed to generate reliable traction on medium to oily lane conditions, this coverstock works with the Big Time core to produce a stronger overall reaction.

Ebonite's testing demonstrated that the Go Time provides more midlane strength and total hook than the GB5 Hybrid, making it an appealing step up when bowlers need additional traction.

At the same time, the Go Time is designed to clear the front portion of the lane more easily than the biggest hooking balls in the Ebonite lineup.
