« on: October 30, 2021, 06:34:37 PM »
Hello just wondering if anyone knows when the green pearl fab hammer was made? I have one and have never seen one. Thanks

Gene is correct.  That ball started as a blue pearl that turned green.  It's not the first one to do that.  Most of the ones you find are not easily recognizable as blue pearl.  And almost all the solid blues you find have turned a dark teal.

Well I am not saying its impossible but usually with color conversion you would think that it would have a blend to it. this looks deep emerald green throughout. I am hoping to find some info or sell it to someone who knows the origins.

You got some info but refuse to believe it.  What you have can be found in many bowling centers sitting on ball racks now used as a house ball.

Has anyone received a definitive answer (from old Fab contacts or otherwise) regarding whether this was originally intended to be a green pearl? I'm asking because my instinct suggests that it might have been a blue pearl that has significantly changed color over the years, similar to how the dull blue solid hammers tended to do.

Warning:  Troll post by Liafkowski28.  ?? 




I have heard that trolls will sometimes reply to an old topic that hasn't had posts in a long time and then go back later and edit their post to add what they really want to post.  That way it can slip by the mods.


There is a new poster who has posted twice and both times basically copied the post of a well-known member here.

Those balls were both marked as seconds because they were pin out.  A lot has progressed since the 90s in our understanding of layouts.  Faball labeled any ball with a pin outside of that circle was as a second.

Has anyone ever gotten an answer (from old Fab contacts or otherwise) as to whether or not this was actually meant to be a green pearl? I ask because my gut tells me this was a blue pearl that has just really changed color a lot over the years the same way the dull blue solid hammers always did.

You can see in this last example on his post, that he has gone back to edit it and looks like added a link.  I am not going to click on it because I don't want to get something onto my computer that I can't get rid of.  It may be something innocent but why go to all the subterfuge for something unless it is not innocent?


If I am wrong, I will delete this post and apologize to him.  Please let me know.

If you hover over the word "this"; at the bottom of the screen it says pinkgame.com.  Uh....no thank you.
