!Q Tour Pearl 2018 Remake
« on: April 21, 2018, 07:47:19 PM »
Over here in Oz I have been informed by my distributor that storm are bringing back the !Q Tour Pearl as a limited edition.

Has anybody else heard heard the same? As I haven’t heard from anyone overseas saying the same thing yet.


Looking forward to having the nugget back in the bag, I’ve missed it!

Regardless it's a good ball, you see mallot use it quite a bit on TV, which probably means it's used during the tournament? And probably means other pros ask for it too?

Just saying, it's got a spot!

Anywho I'm glad it might be coming cuz then I can hold off punching my PBA 60! 😎
In the bag [Infinite Physix, Volatility Torque, Night Road, Phaze III, Burner Solid, Hustle AU]
*Now Testing* IQ Ruby, Renevant, another IQ Tour solid
Coming soon...???

If it's going to be a remake, they're going to do it just like the Marvel Pearl.  I don't think the IQ 30 was that popular because it WASN'T the "gold ball."  If they re-release it, it will be the same ball.  I wouldn't think they'd do another special edition or something.

Between an Ink and Hyroad Pearl in the bag I don't see a need for it personally. Won't be buying it.

Consider me a sucker I guess, but I'd probably get 2.  My current one has some mileage on it but the cover still is in excellent condition.  At 2000 it's been superb on flatter conditions and I've brought it up to 4000 for house conditions.  Just a good match up for me personally and very versatile.

This ball was the best example of shelf appeal trumping everything else. Every company tried to follow suit with their "Goldie". Rhino Pro Gold, GB "Gold", Widow Gold, Honey Badger, 2 Lord Field/Legends balls.

I too found the Hustle Ink to satisfy the hole left from the IQ Tour Pearl. It's definitely found a permanent spot in my bag. Getting away from coverstock solid vs pearl marketing, the ball feels very IQish going down the lane with some decent strength.

Of course there's something to be said about shelf appearance.   
Just an unbiased bowling enthusiast trying too enjoy the game with each set.

My findings as well; It's MONEY for me on anything at 2000.  I also agree with other companies' Emulating the original gold ball as well; Although for the most part, they all have come and gone.

I still have my original, and pulled it out the last game when everything else was going high, and BANG, couldn't miss the pocket.   Gold ball will never leave my bag.

This is where I chime in and say the HB is the best gold ball since the gold Quake.

Doom your making me remember to my younger days when I rolled the purple solid quake and gold pearl  AWESOME BALLS

I agree. The HB is WAY better ball than the IQ Tour Pearl. Cleaner, more angular, works amazingly good with a duller surface and it is way cheaper than the IQ.

And on top of that, the HB won't crack...  :-X

HB is obviously much higher RG but tend to agree and love mine.  IQ Tour Solid though is the greatest no tap ball in the history of bowling.  That ball carries me when I bowl no tap (should have put graphic on side of ball like the Radical Score but with 9/ 9/ 9/9 lol).  Since I rarely do sport shots that is about the only time it gets to see competition though. If I was to spend $150+ on another IQ I would go for the fusion instead of the pearl and maybe even instead of the solid if had a do over.
