3D weight block
« on: December 09, 2007, 12:47:55 PM »
I've been trying to find a picture of the weight block in the original 3D... not the 3D Offset.  Does anyone know where I might be able to find that info ?

NHS,
 I think it would be safe to say the original 3-D had the same wgt. block
as the offsets had with out the core shift between the flip blocks. Go to
"BOWLINGBALL REVIEWS.COM", click on discontinued balls. Go to Faball and click on any of the offsets. Under 3-D it does not show a picture of the wgt. block
for either the solid or the pearl. I drilled a few for my customers when they came out. The offsets were just the next evolution of the same core.


Bowling is tuff, but the tuff throw Hammers!

BowlingBallReviews.com does not seem to have pictures of this core. You'd probably have to go to old issues of BTM or BJI or find old ads.

I had one and I remember that the RG differential was high casuing about a max of 7" of flare. I don't recall the RG numbers off the top of my head.
BBR shows the page for the pearl,

solid,

They say the RG was medium.
