Title: Official Awakening Topic
Post by: The Bowlers Edge 2 on December 18, 2008, 01:25:22 AM: Greetings all,
I have just come and replied to topics about the ball and answered questions when I could, here is the official post.
The promo info can be found here: http://s238.photobucket.com/albums/ff192/The_Bowlers_Edge/Awakening/?action=view¤t=untitled.jpg

We wanted to make a ball with a good midprice ball that pro shops would not be afraid to buy into because they wouldn't be killed in a year like so many bowling balls are. A pro shop could put this ball on the shelf and years later when a customer comes in and asks for (another) one, they will still be in production!

14-16 Lbs were made, and we can take specs requests. Price is 110 shipped to the public, pro shops can call or email for their pricing.

Thank you!
Eric

I will buy this ball! The old Messenger series core. You get control, and power at the pin deck! Just what we've been waiting for.

Great job 900 Global! You cannot lose with this piece!

I was thinking the same thing. Thinking ZR-40 clone / update and that was one of my favorite balls at the time ( had 3 in my bag)

all 4 Elements used them and they were great balls.

Post by: LaneHammer20 on January 09, 2009, 11:42:04 AM: Ya i have a NE10 that at first was not reacting right, but now that it has 20 or so games on it, it is awesome, so i would think if the awakening is similar except pearl, it would be a good ball. The NE10 is as is very even but strong arc in the back.

design...I'll buy one of the Awakenings.

Post by: polaris1050 on January 09, 2009, 12:00:51 PM: The more I throw my Awakening, the more I like it. It's much stronger than I expected. It is rolling how I expected my Break Pearl to roll. My Break Pearl was way too strong.
