Hi All,

I'm proud to present to you The Visionary OGRE Particle Video.

http://www.videoballreviews.com/ogreparticle.html

My Take on the Ball:

First let me say i am amazed at the interest in when this video was coming...the amount of e-mails and PM's i got makes me realize alot of you are getting the Visionary Fever!

The Ogre line is known for its great performances at a great pricepoint, and the Ogre Particle does not disappoint.  It really rounds out the Ogre Line nicely...

The Ogre Particle provides a unique reaction which is hard to come by.  A particle ball with a low differental core.  The low diff core provides excellent length for a particle ball, but you can see (and literally feel) this thing dig its teeth into lane.  This is a ball all tournament and league bowlers will want to have in their bag.  Tournament bowlers for the control it provides on tougher patterns.  League bowlers for the way it tames over/under shots.  On the house shot it was hard to miss the pocket, shots leaked right rolled off the dry without over reacting, while shots placed in the oil had no problem finishing.

Now as with ALL particle balls, you are going to have to know when to put this ball away.  It WILL roll out if you dont have enough volume, unless you have a good amount of ball speed.

Great new release from Visionary!

As always Comments and Questions are welcome!

I don't have one yet but I'll guess it has a very similar reaction to those that have owned/rolled a Granite.  Granite even with a bit more differential rolled much like Britton's video for me.  

Jason W. has said that the coverstock is much the same as the Granite.

I think I'm going to have to pick this one up.  I used to roll a lot of Visionary stuff but started to venture away from them just for the heck of it.  I haven't rolled anything in either the AMB or Ogre line.  I had my first 300 with a Granite before I made a weight change and gave it to my father.  I loved that ball and if the Particle Ogre is close then I know I'll be happy.

i think this is what everyone wishes their particle ball would do. open up the lanes NOT more then their reactive but just as much.

im not saying that ball will always do that as ive had my carbide plus do that and then the next time out hook almost nothing compared to solid reactives. if it can do that time and time again when theres enough oil then thats an impressive particle ball. perhaps its due to the low flaring ogre core?
 


Particles aren't really supposed to outhook the reactives.  On an oil condition, ok, they are going to, but the real purpose of the particle ball is to allow the ball to have continuous motion through the pins at impact and allow the ball to roll through....not deflect like almost everything else is going to do because the ball never really grabbed yet.

There are posts out there that probably describe it a lot better than what I just did.....but that's always been my take.

finally watched the Vid

So.... this beast is stronger than the solid no doubt....
so.... the midlane read is stronger
so.... I like th color for sure.
so.... Visinary's getting more and more interesting for me

How will this ball work for a stroner with a diffferent layout?
I guess I'll wait till more people can tell me more

Very nice video Britton. The OPART looks like a nice smooth rolling wrecking machine.

How do you think the OPART stacks up against the Gladiator Solid if drilled similarly??? I'll be on a tighter house blend this winter and will finally be able to throw some stronger equipment.

Thanks.

I can live it.

in fact... if you have 0% losing 20% isn't so bad at all
