New on the Approved list.......
« on: January 27, 2015, 12:24:12 PM »
For those of you who have not seen, the Approved Ball list has a Greese Monkey Whack and a Guru Mighty. The Guru Mighty looks an awful lot like the ball in the Guru comparison vid mentioned as "coming soon".

Wonder what these 2 are all about if they are truly coming to the market soon, ie covers, etc.

WOWZERS!

I remember the talk on the Guru comparison thread and Phil mentioned the new Guru was a completely different level of coverstock innovation. Didn't say solid/pearl/hybrid though. I cannot imagine what this one does.

RB, I guess that means you'll soon be shooting long distance numbers a la 1-area code+7-digit number.
Ball speed avg. (18.25 mph)
Rev rate avg. (400-428 rpm)

It's been said that the "coming soon" ball in the video is not a solid, not a pearl, and not a hybrid, but something new.  I'm so confused and curious.  Hard to imagine anything better than the Guru...

With the Mo, Phil, and the Mad Scientists at Brunswick I can only imagine what they have devised for this new Guru.

here is a little skinny for you guys regarding the cover and core combo. first off the core is the same as the original Guru, identical numbers, shape and density. secondly the cover is the same base resin formula. So how does it perform so differently you may ask.
We dye our resins we do not use pigment so there is no impact of color on the performance of our shells. We do use additives to get the desired length and shape regarding ball motion.
When you look at the ball it will have a solid blue and a pearl "looking" green color combo. In reality they are both the same resin, its esthetic only. We used an additive combination to create the exact motion. If we desired we could make a solid black ball roll exactly like a skid flip pearl. This is the newest technology in the market. that is why the Guru does what it does and why the new Guru can actually offer a totally new performance, it is a great ball and I guarantee you will all be pleasantly surprised.

That sounds simply amazing Phil!  By the way, where's Mo been lately.  I haven't seen him posting anything on bowlingchat for a while and his facebook page has been pretty quiet?  Do you have him locked up in a room somewhere designing new Radical cores?
