Well, I'm not one for pink, but I guess it's nice to see they're bringing back a solid reactive that can remind us of the DC Tour. It's a about time they give us a solid reactive Gargoyle. Anyone else think that this one has winner written all over it?

Bowling is without a doubt the dumbest, most pointless, most idiotic excuse for a game that has ever been invented. So, what time are we bowling tomorrow?

Well, it STILL isn't on the Visionary site, but it IS on the approved balls list now and it wasn't a few days ago.  So, does anyone know when this ball is coming to market?

The catalog says fall, so I am going to guess mid to late Aug
seeing as they are probably talking about the fall season.

Has anyone got the RG and diff numbers on this one yet? I'm not going to make any assumptions based on the fact that the core looks like the other Gargoyles' cores.

RG: Medium (2.56")

Avail. Wts: 13-16# (Gargoyle core)
10-12# (on request - light wt. core)

I won't mind this type of low differential, I think the Blue Gryphon is lower right???....at .033???

I have trouble with DIF lower than .025 though...

I don't follow the online shops, so I can't help you there.  Good luck!
