While I am a bit of a whore for Track equipment, if you get a chance, you should really throw the Bank. One of the best pieces of equipment I've ever thrown.

Before I invest too much more into a 9G arsenal, will they be PBA approved after this season?
I currently have a Favorite, Bank, Long Shot. Was just about to get a Bank Pearl. Was also thinking of a purchasing a 9G bag. 
Anyone have anymore info on this?

Considering how much they are growing as a manufacturer and their reputation, I would venture they will become a fixture on the PBA tour with the decline of Brunswick.

Every indication I have from Dave is they intended to contiunue to be registered. That is one reason they dropped some of their player sponsorship. Didn't feel they could do both. My concern was like yours and have a dozen 9G balls and feared they were going to become useless if I went to regionals. He said guys like us are why they keep paying the fees.

Mrperfect-Decline of Brunswick?? Please enlighten me. In the last 2-3 years they have produced some of the best equipment on the market. Unlike Ebonite International, they haven't released 35 balls in the last 2 months, though. Maybe you meant they don't release as much equipment. Maybe it's the Mexico thing. I know that bothers a bunch of you.
 
 Please enlighten me to how you feel that way.

Well, I know that the minute Brunswick pulled out of Michigan and decided to go cheap labor Mexico I was done with them. Just a personal thing but I am sure I am not the only one that feels this way. Made in the USA means a lot to me.

In my neck of the woods, most bowlers agree with T Bone. Brunswick is absent from the ball returns because of the cheap labor in Mexico reason. You will not see me with anything that has the Brunswick logo. Not even a grip sack.
