 The Edge Blue Pearl combines our Relativity Pearl coverstock with our proven Edge low RG symmetrical core for a reaction very similar to our highly popular Melee Jab. The Edge Blue Pearl provides outstanding length, angular backend motion, and excellent hitting power on medium oil lane conditions.
 COMMENTS
I drilled the edge pearl with a shorter pin to my PAP. I shortened the pin to my PAP because I have trouble with pearl covers giving me a big over under. I love the reaction I get with this ball. If you like the Melee Jab you will love this ball.

I really like my reaction that I am getting out of the Edge Pearl.  I drilled mine pin under ring with cg kicked out and a p3 hole.  I also have a problem with over/under with pearl covers, so what I did was break the surface with a 3000 grit pad by hand.  With this I am still able to get a good backend reaction, but not as over/under.  The Edge pearl really is the same reaction I get out of my Melee Jab, so if that was a ball that you liked then head out and pick up a Edge Pearl.
