Description: Once again Brunswick responds to the market. To complement the success of the Fury, bowlers asked for a pearlized version. Answering the call, Brunswick delivers the Fury Pearl.

Building on the success of the original Fury, the Fury Pearl utilizes a pearlized coverstock and a smoother Coverstock Finish to create a ball with a back-end reaction that is truly BIG. The Fury Pearl utilizes a pearlized version of the High Octane coverstock used on the original Fury. The pearl additive helps create more length and saves hooking action for the back-ends.

The bowling industry is starting to embrace the surface finishes created by 2000-grit and 4000-grit abrasives. These abrasives create a glossy finish that many bowlers would assume are polished with a wax or similar compound. The benefit to the bowler is that these finishes create length similar to balls coated with compound finishes, but are better able to handle carrydown. The Fury Pearl is finished with 4000-grit Abrasive pads driven by the new Haus high speed bowling ball resurfacing machine.

The Fury Pearl uses the original Fury’s Torsion Symmetric core system known for its high hook potential, easy revving and powerful, but controllable breakpoints. Brunswick has twisted the core on the inside of the ball so you can twist it up more on the lanes.

Out of the Box: With its 4000-grit finish, the Fury Pearl will provide a more skid/snap reaction than the original Fury and match up well on medium-dry to medium-oily lane conditions.

I returned to league bowling for the first time in 10 years with my old ball that I averaged 202 with back then. Well, things are different now and I struggled with only a 175 average after 12 weeks. I needed new technology! After lots of research, I decided on the Fury Pearl. I had it drilled very conservatively. I don't like a hard core break. I first tried it on open bowling conditions that were VERY dry. The hook was nearly impossible to manage. 3 games below my average...not good. I was worried that I had made a bad choice. The next day I bowled right after a league with better oil and better results. 3 games, 598 series. 2 days later I finally had my first league night on fresh oil. This ball was amazing!! It got through the front beautifully with a very consistant, strong and predictable back end reaction and a very hard hit. Best series of the year...652! And that could have easily been better! Looking forward to the future with this great ball!!

heres my review for the fury pearl:

to start off, i got this ball for $30, so i wasnt going to lose much if i didnt like it. turns out it was money well invested!

got this ball used on a single drill, 1 1/2 pin placed it under the RF, with cg down and slightly kicked right. on the right pattern(or even not, from my limited experience with this ball so far) there has been an area of play on the lane for me. granted ive only had 3 outings with this ball so far, but im very pleased with the results im getting, and cant wait to use it in league this thursday, as im sure it will be the shining star of my arsenal.
all the reviews that ive read about this ball hooking a ton, are completely true for me.

last friday(4/4) i was bowing at a wood house with guardian surface, broken down from at least one league, maybe two, im not sure. this ball shined the first and 3rd games, ran into some trouble the second game with it overhooking, and i just didnt make the right move at the right time. i was hooking it more than anyone on my pair, and the two pairs next to me, one guy who cranks the crap out of his ball was having trouble with his track arsenal artillery not recovering in the back, so he and many others had to move right and throw harder, while i moved left and let it fly!

all in all, BEST BRUNSWICK BALL IVE EVER OWNED!(which isnt saying much since this is my 3rd since the original sapphire zone, LOL!)

this ball covers more boards than my pin up ricochet rebound, and they go about the same length down the lane!

anyway, great ball, and props to my friend for hooking me up for $30!

COMMENTS
Carry - This ball hits very hard and keeps the pins low on the deck. If this ball is kept in the oil it can skid by the breakpoint. It tends to send a lot of messangers on light hits as well. When carry down occurs the ball will labor a bit and cause flat hits resulting in corner pins. This ball reads the lane well and makes a great move when it sees dry. I've thown this on a short pattern like Cheetah and this ball just simply owns that shot. It makes an awesome hard ark to the pocket and is very controllable for a pearl.
 
Likes - Works very well on medium fresh patterns. On shorter patterns you need to be firm at release becuase the ball reads the pattern so well. The ball just revs up very well in the mids and reads the dry well reacting off the dry like some one kicked it. The irony is that it does not look like it is doing much until if finds the breakpoint. Interestingly, it is a sleeper since it was released afterthe Fury Solid and before the Twisted Fury. The length of time this ball was in the Brunswick line was short so, most people overlooked it entirely. Unfortunate because this is another awesome Brunswick piece. It is very quickly becoming one of my "go to" balls.

Dislikes - House shots typically have a lake of oil in the middle of the lane. In these cases the Fury Pearl labors if you tug the ball into the oil it will tend to miss the breakpoint. You need to find the friction for this ball to really shine.

Overall: This is a great ball. It is a lot of fun to watch and can cover a multitude of conditions and lengths. The ball is really in the category of "work horse" as far as I am concerned. It provides a unique level of control, predictabilty and punch often not found in a pearl. If you get the chance don't pass this one by.

After using this ball for about 10 games I must say that I love the reaction on this ball.  It clears the heads with no problem, hits the friction, starts turning then BOOM...it makes the move to the pocket.  It clears the deck.  I tend to use the middle part of the lane since it's oiler to let the ball skid and send it to about the 7th board to make that turn.  

This ball has given me good pin action and has given me a lot of good breaks.  Like with most pearlized bowling balls, you have to be very accurate and make sure you get it to the right breakpoint or else it can go pass the pocket or over react and hit the head pin.  But, skill should come first anyway.  Overall, I this is a good addition to my arsenal.  I like the predictability of the ball.  I can throw the ball and watch it hit my target and breakpoint and turn around and just listen to the strike.  LOL.  Awesome predictable ball with bad intentions.
