I had one of those, and it was one of the worst balls I have ever owned.

I know little of the pearl, but I had a solid and it was the stuff in 1990-1991.

Pearlized regular urethane. For todays conditions, use it for toasted lanes or whenever urethane can be the key since it does still have a decent core in it.
