Win a 300 Global ball and the winner is....
« on: April 15, 2007, 12:47:01 PM »
We will give away one of our first launches. we will randomly select one lucky ballreviews submitter. simply tell us what you feel the performance you are looking for from the first 300 Global launch.  We will close the feedback Wed 17th at noon. Tell us either by comparing it to an existing product from other companies line or tell us the ultimate reaction you desire.Or simply tell us why you would buy a 300 Global ball. We will IM you and let you know when the ball will be shipped to the lucky winner. I know you will all do a good job because of the support you have shown me in the past. This is my way of gathering info and saying thanks.

Wow people, he said the winner would be chosen at random, not by who provided the "best" answer.  Thanks to Newguy for providing a contest to win a FREE ball, and boo! to anyone who complains about how it was decided.

Make a Urethane ball with a Assymetric core, like the Machine core or something.


Yeah, a lot of "real bowlers" will buy a ball that doesn't hook much.  As great as anyone would think that ball is, it simply won't sell next to Ones, Total NVs, Furys, Infernos, and Agents.

"Slate Blue Gargoyle!  Slate Blue Gargoyle!!!" you scream, the spittle flying from your lips.  Visionary's said that it was never a big seller when it was in production and they don't understand why there's so much interest in it now that it's discontinued.  

As a first ball, an asymmetric urethane would flop and pretty much doom the company.  You can't sell a ball like that for a high-end price, possibly not even at the mid-range.  A complex, asymmetric, multi-density core is not cheap, and high end balls that don't hook tend to flop.

Oh wow! Absolutebowling had such a great answer!! NOT!!

Like absolutebowling's answer was precise and detailed. I saw way better answers and input than what he gave. How come you picked his? We all have a right to know.

After all, you wanted our opinions as to what we are looking for.



Basically I took all the responses less the ones I added and divided it by a secret number I will not disclose and came up with a number that was the winning post.

Andy, don't you know that reading an ENTIRE post is not a requirement?

Even though I didn't win, I'll still buy some 300 Global equipment

Holy fork....

I won something?

No, seriously?

Cool

In reply to the guys concerned about my association with VBP, I'm not actually a test staffer, I am just a huge fan of most of the smaller companies, and so far, Visionary has been the stand out for me. Because I drill alot of gear from them, (for myself, and for the guys around here that use them) I'm always more than happy to give layout advise

Pm has been sent Phil. As a few of you know here, I'm one of those damn Aussies, and I have offered to pay postage costs if needed. It will be interesting watching the progress of this new company in the industry.

Thanks again Phil!
