Title: Is the Buzzbomb Hybrid going to be released?
Post by: Nicanor on June 23, 2009, 10:49:59 AM
I seen a picture to the Buzzbomb Hybrid test ball.  Is the Buzzbomb Hybrid going to be released or is the Dynamo Hybrid/pearl going to take its place?

I bought one of Bean's BB Hybrids, it's an awesome looking ball..  I doubt it'll ever go into production though..

Why do you think the Buzzbomb hybrid will never go into production?

The BuzzBomb has been discontinued, the BuzzBomb/R has been discontinued and I suspect as soon as the Hybrid Dynamo or Pearl Dynamo is released the Agent Orange will be gone as well.

With success of the Hurricane core and the problems with the Doomsday core, I suspect they will only keep one in production and it won't be the Doomsday.

Personally I loved the BB and the AO.  I've thrown more then a dozen games with the BB that could have been 300s and have hit it with the AO.  But they were really hit or miss for some people..  I just think you would have seen the Hybrid by now if it was ever gonna come out..

i was not totally crazy about the doomsday core myself ( too finiky ), but I would like to procure another AO before they are all gone.
like ZJ said
hit or miss w/ the weight issues, some i drilled hit, and some missed.

+1 to Zeusy.  It was a test ball that probably won't be put into production because it would have been done so by now.  Test balls come out before the ball is produced, if it is produced at all.  That being said, since it wasn't produced, it probably never will be.

It is a sweet azz looking ball.  Wish I had more of them.....

Nic,

The DoomsDay core proved to be very finicky and bowler/ layout specific. You found that out for yourself first hand 2 times.

The Hurricane core in the Dynamo is much more forgiving, less drill sensitive and overall a better core for a greater variety of bowlers.

Again this is just my anticipation...there has been no verification of this from Lane 1....just my guess.
