What modern Brunswick ball is the CLOSEST to the raging red?

The Red Zone from the current balls is VERY similar to the RRF. It is really astonishing to me. I have only seen 2 RZs in action so far, but length, breakpoint shape and overall reaction appear close to each other. The OI (Aka Hyper Zone S at the moment) is also very close, since it is the RRF's successor. It will IMHO be a little longer and snappier at the breakpoint, but the difference will be marginal.

I distinctly got the same impression.  I've actually found the OI to seem earlier and smoother than the RRF.  Granted, the RRF was pretty early, but the backend strength was off the charts.  The Red Zone is a tad tamer and a bit more controllable, which makes it almost an improvement over the Raging Red.  One thing is for sure though, you'll definitely see a ton of similarities, and if you liked the Raging Red, you'll definitely like the Red Zone.

Definitely the OI is not close to the Raging Red Fuze. I have both and they both totally use different board. I preffered my RRF than the OI coz until now I still not found the right lane or condition for my OI. They maybe right that the Red Zone could be closer except the RZ comes clean in the backend.

Rampage IMO. It's a little weaker but same basic reaction.

Cool I had the OI and didn't like it at all. I have my RR drilled 3x5 and I'm looking to get another because it's such an amazing ball, but I can't find one anywhere, not even on ebay...

And you probably won't either. If you do see one, they'll most likely want $200+ for it..

Keep looking... I'm sure there's a 300 in one of those balls you keep buying!!


fixed.

Hah yea no kidding. Hence the reason why I'm trying to find out if there is anything in the Brunswick line that is close enough to the RR.
