Title: Global New Releases
Post by: tekneek on June 05, 2009, 04:46:11 PM
below is a link to the Bounty Hunter, Lunatic, and Break Point Pearl. I've only used the Bounty Hunter, it is not as pretty as the other two balls but it is one mean  looking S.O.B. when it begins to move sideways all you see is a blur, the ball revs so fast when it encounters friction the colors become a blur, had fun thowing it last night in league had a ball watching others try and figure out what was going on, it definitely got everyone's attention !!! I'll edit he post tomorrow and add the layouts to each ball along with a mini review of Thursday night using the Bounty Hunter

BPP is definitely different than the Break Pearl... good to see that...

Thanks for the pics.

Steve,

What is the Bounty Hunter? Solid, Pearl, Hybrid? Can't wait until you have a 16 lb. Lunatic!!!!!!!

Looks like the Break Pearl will remain the best looking ball I've ever seen. BPP is not a unique looking ball like the Break Pearl.

Nut it may not be as unique as the BP but then again the BPP does have a look of its own, I like the color combo on it myself has more "personality" IMO.

Holy cow, a Break Point Pearl????!!!!  I want it.  not only is it pretty but add pearl and skid flip to the original and wow, awesome.  The Break Point is my favorite ball to throw.  I'll definitely be getting one of these.  One thing I need in my bag that I haven't found from 900 yet is an angular pearl ball, looks like we've found a winner!

Well the Break Point from what ive seen is a very angular solid, and with the new flip block at the bottom for the break point pearl, i am wondering how much more angular they can make a ball, with too much angle, you could set yourself up (at least i do) with lots of 9 and 10 pins, but we will see, tkneek, when will we get a mini review of the ones you drilled up???

as it turns out I didn't make it to the lanes tonight, customer needed a  couple balls drilled, so we'll try for tomorrow. I'll add you to the list, after throwing the Bounty Hunter I doubt if that goes anywhere except in my bag or locker at the center.

Since they put out the Lunatic, is the Maniac still available? Seems like they fit together. They obviously can't use Psycho because of Hammer but the pearl version could be the Sociopath. So you would have the Maniac, Lunatic, and Sociopath!
