Since Brunswick has decided to move their plant to Mexico I've decided to make a switch. I'm a very firm believer in "Made in America" and this decision was a rough one since I've been with them for 15 years. My question for all you Track gurus lies in a heavy oil ball. I have a lot of revs and med-high ball speed. I'm interested in a GP2 and was wondering if this would be too much ball or stick with an original Rule? These I've purchased already and am looking for suggestions.

Violence never solved anything...........but it does get rid of the competition which makes it easier for you

The main reason I was looking at the original Rule was that I don't have a great relationship with particles unless it's a low load pearl particle. So I was kinda looking too stay away from GP2, Blue heat, or the Arsenal. I figured I would be able to put more surface on the Rule or drill it a little more aggressive.

twister,

Since you are new to the Track Forum you may not have heard, there is a huge difference between the GP2 and Arsenal Aggressive when compared to other particle balls.

GP2: Has what Track calls dual particle coverstock. There are 2 particles in the cover, one large and hollow and the other small and solid. Where this comes into play is throughout the entire lane. The large particles help it begin its early roll, but once it gets down the lane the solid particles come into play and it allows for a very strong backend reaction for a high load particle.

I have had SEVERAL bowling balls from nearly every company, and the Rule GP2 is something to see. You will be suprised at the backend recovery you get with this ball. Its backend is every bit as strong as the Rule.

Arsenal Aggressive and Angular: These balls use a particle that Track named the Peak Particles. Word is that Del Warren has been working on this coverstock since his days with AMF, it is a very unique particle and these are the only bowling balls to use it. According to the info Track released these particles are shaped like CORN FLAKES....very small and very solid compared to most other particles that have a tendancy to wear over time. The reaction these particles give on the lane is very sweet.......They allow the ball to get down the lane, and backend like a reactive ball. I was amazed at the reaction I got. I got the kind of reaction out of the Arsenal Aggressive that I wanted out of the Ultimate Inferno I had a while back.

Forgive me if I am treading on sacred ground by mentioning another ball company here but....

Didn't Storm have a version of the PRO-thane cover with 2 different sized particles in it? I am thinking it was the PRO-Thane MT they used on the Super Power or SP pearl???

Anybody?

Charge me with blasphemy if you must but curiosity killed this cat :-)
