New Ball
« on: March 08, 2004, 04:24:27 PM »
On Visionary's website they have a "next ball" at the end of their line-up when you click the "balls" icon.........

I think it should be a symetrical solid............thoughts?

Actually, the Burgundy and G-3's core are symmetrical.  The Blue Sparkle's
is not.

Why take a step back, by going back to symetrical for a high end ball?

High end does NOT equate to symetrical or asymetrical...

Heck the most expensive highend ball is symetrical (Lane 1)

I think if they are going to tweak with coverstocks, then the
core needs to be symetrical.  Don't get to crazy and change to
many things at once, you won't know which one is working. JMO

I think thedude hit it on the head. I have been thinking that they neede a "pearl particle" for a while. Now that dynothane had come out with their pearl particle vendetta, we can all see how a ball like this would complement an already good lineup.

 I currently throw a shined charcoal executioner drilled stacked under the ring finger and a HIGHLY (and I mean HIGHLY) polished granite gargoyle drilled 3x0 and can cover all my house shots. If I get back to bowling tourneys, I will need more, but for now these are great. I am averaging around 220 with them and they are 14lb balls.

I thought the purple ice was a particle pearl?
I thought that it was just sanded.

From the visionary site:

"This Executioner was designed to combat the toughest of lane conditions. This light load particle pearl rolls like an old urethane on steroids, with the hit and carry of a strong reactive. With the executioner core and a newly designed coverstock, this ball is a must have for tournament and tough house conditions. This is NOT a monster hooker, but what this ball does offer is CONTROL - the best component when the lanes are not forgiving."

I take it you shined those two in particular so you only have to carry three
balls? (including plastic)

Pearl Particle!!!

Core from the New G-3(personally i like this core best, but some want to DC core back)

As for Jeffrevs, no not all balls have to be asymeterical, but most companys reserving there MB marked balls for the high end line.

Example i look at dynothane and personally i like there products alot.

also i have stated MO about Lane one. lol i got an earful from it too.

Pearl Particle! or An Original Blue sparkle Gryphon with some more Surface and a little stronger cover.

livespive,

 you are correct. I carry them this way so I can carry only three. If I need more, I can scotchbrite the executioner and then re-polish it when I get back home.

 I have had good luck like this and these are some great balls. visionary makes some winners and people in my center are starting to notice and ask where they can get them.

No, that is correct, the Apocalypse, along with all the Fuel cores are Asymetrical....HOWEVER, I didn't mention the Apoc, ...just the Rush.....
