Title: Firehawk
Post by: jasont215 on August 10, 2005, 01:47:20 PM

Are there any plans to release a ball similar to the original Firehawk? Does anything in the current lineup compare?
Thanks.

The closest thing these days is probably the Track Hexplosion: same core but the cover is not pearlized. Don't think there's anything in the current AMF line-up that compares to the FireHawk.

The Brunswick Punisher, Columbia Drive, Visionary AMB Bronze, Roto-Grip RS-1 are current balls that come closest in overall reaction to the FireHawk.

Jason, I think the Powerdrive or the Ricochet from Columbia would be slightly strong versions of a firehawk, being light load particle pearl shells, and the super scamp from AMF may not be too far off as far as ball reaction goes, but I agree with charlest that there probably isnt something dead on as far as core/cover matchup to match the firehawk. :0
