Nexus Pearl
« on: January 19, 2012, 05:47:18 AM »
Thanks to some quick cash from returning several unwanted Christmas gift cards my new Brunswick Nexus  Pearl will be drilled up tomorrow. I'm really looking forward to seeing this ball in action !

Thanks for trying to help but the R&D guys at Brunswick tell me it IS a pearl. The info on their website states this as well.

The Nexus Pearl f (P) is a pearl.

 

The Nexxus f (P+R) is a solid.

 

Just to clarify... :)

You will be surprised at how good that ball is. I haven't seen the solid in my leagues yet, but have seen the Nexus Pearl and that ball gets thru the heads, sniffs the try, turns and demolishes the rack like no Brunswick ball I have ever seen. I simply can't explain how hard that ball hits with great pin mix and scouts flying just in case a pin didn't go down which isn't often. Right now I can't buy a new ball, but the Nexus Pearl will definitely be my next one when I do buy one.

I thought the C-System 2.5 was a great ball. Then I was convinced that the C-System ulti-max couldn't be outdone. To those who have thrown these balls......how does the Nexus Pearl stack up ?

For me the Nexus Pearl goes longer, and once it finds friction turns more abruptly than the Ulti-Max.  The Ulti-Max fits between the Nexus solid and the Nexus pearl in my opinion.

I got my Nexus Pearl drilled up today. The ball was drilled( old school layout explanation ) with the pin next to my ring finger. The cg and psa were straight down. There is a hole 1" down from my PAP. The surface was adjusted to 1,000 Siaair pad and highly polished. Can't wait to try it out !

I had a chance to throw a few games with my new Nexus Pearl today. The house I was at had 33 year old wood lanes that were resurfaced last summer. I had whatever oil pattern was leftover from a mixed league on Friday night. I was impressed with the ease at which the ball got through the front part of the lane and was also impressed with the backend reaction. After some more testing this ball may be a great investment !

Good to hear that you like it so far.  The Nexus Pearl is a very versatile ball and is one of my favorite balls right now for house shots or sport shots.  Good luck the rest of the season with the new ball.
