Updated with all the new 900 links.
-
Can't wait to see the videos for these. All look like good pieces.
-
oh man is that protocol gonna be sweet. and the return of the s30??? should be awesome....
-
Hard drive is the one looking me right in the face saying "You know you want me"
-
I'm giving serious thought to the Desert Hook,I could use a new dry lane reactive.I look foreward to seeing some video on this piece.
-
Good looking stuff.....no great looking stuff.
-
Dry Hook and the AMF Heat Stroke look most appealing to me. Dry Hook has Orbit Extreme remake all over it.
-
hey doom i really thought you would be going for that desert hook with having the same cover the link you liked so much
-
Oh, its already on the list. Trust me. :)
-
I like the sounds of all of the balls, even on the AMF side as well. Think the Grip It sounds very nice being S64 Hybrid. Kind of surprised not to see anything in a solid stronger than S70. Maybe that will drop at the start of the fall.
-
I don't see the specs for the Grip/It up yet. Where did you find that information?
-
The Hard Drive is stronger than s70......the Heat Stroke looks like it could be a good seller too. Might be clise to a IQ Tour Pearl. The King Cobra isn't much different than the IQ Tour for me just a little earlier OOB for me so could see this being similar to the gold ball.....I think all the new erases should be nice.....
-
The Heat Stroke core reminds me a lot of the Messenger, with a slightly lower differential for control.

Lower rg on the Heat Stroke though.....The messenger low rg I guess was close. Numbers are really close to the nugget. I think the Storm cover will probably be slightly cleaner and might have a little more in the back but I bet it's gonna be fairly similar type reaction. Never have quite understood why the IQ pearl was in the price point it is. Should be in the mid level price point at most....

Charlest, you're on the money.
-
anyone where i can find pricing info (even for just the protocol & hard drive) ?
-
Reminds me of this core used on several different balls through the years.

Kid, I think they can tweak the densities in that bottom block and make it do whatever they want.

I haven't seen any yet but I'm thinking the hard drive will be in the high end price point and theprotocol will be at the war eagle price point.
-
thanks man...wanted to order the protocol but no one seems to have a price yet
-

Doom, take a look at the ad for either the Protocol or Hard Drive and on the 2nd page, it has a ball line up comparison.

What about the Grip It?? Is that an overseas release? Or has it not been announced just yet?
-
It is a U.S release, it is do to come out some time in Aug in a pro shop in your area. :) cant wait that's for sure. another great release from 1 of the top ball manufactures woohoo go 900 Global
-
Good, give me some time between drilling sessions. Can't wait to get my hands on a Hard Drive and an Incinerate. Maybe I can punch them before my tournament on Shark on the 7th.

Quit being naughty, Charlest. :P
-

Buddies (http://www.buddiesproshop.com/m-3-900-global.aspx) & bowling.com (http://www.bowling.com/shopping/900-global/bowling-balls) have pricing info on their sites with pre-order available. Both have similar pricing, basically ~$80 for Desert Hook, ~$109 for Vixen, ~$139 for Hard Drive, and ~$159 for Protocol.
I'm intrigued by the price of the Desert Hook. I'd like to see some videos & reviews before I buy it but it might be the best value of the 4 balls.
-
Quit being naughty, Charlest. :P
After 45 or 50 posts of awaiting the new release of every bleepin' manufacturer, I had to change the subject somewhere along the line to something of true interest to every male. :) Besides, you're the one who put "Hard Drive" in the forefront of the discussion. :):):)
-
I've got a NIB Jewel sitting behind me, so just a Protocol, Hard Drive, Desert Hook, Rip/it and Incinerate for me please.
