I saw on an international bowling page on facebook that a brown looking Phantom was being released.  But who knows if that is only intl or domestic too.

It would sit e nice if they bring back the inferno line, that's all that's missing... not bad to hope/dream.   ::)

I would assume the Forest Green and Fire Pearl Quantums are Brunswick's vintage balls brought back this bowling season even though they didn't go in the vintage ball line. With the next two releases being the True Nirvana and Fanatic SS there probably won't be anything else until June or July.

Sterner was using the Fanatic BTU.Rash was throwing some kind of ball I didn't recognize had a green pin like the Fortera series.Was a burnt orange and purple best I could tell.

June or July? You're kidding right

These companies are releasing faster and faster. There will be something announced in March/early April with a may release date at the latest.

Bill ,I think they all are about to shoot their selves in the foot with releases faster than you can wear a ball out.Just look at all the good stuff on clearance who needs new releases.

Thanks for the clarification on the ball Sterner used.

As for the new Quantums, my understanding is the Quantum series is their own line, separate of the Vintage series, etc.
