I still like my original Mastermind(s).
My only question with the Nirvana video is what kind of message are you really sending by using PB3's youngest son? And I doubt VERY seriously that he has a 350 rev rate.

Looks great but the Ryan mouw alignment portion looked funny.  It looked like the master mind didn't hit the same alignment even though the video said they did.  I like the zone style logo tho!

Pretty common occurrence in videos to see the "this other ball from the same alignment" claim just to see it's nowhere close in any way.

Looks like it would be an overseas zone from a few years back. I dig that.

Lots of things are made in Mexico...Hershey chocolate, GM, Ford, VW, Mercedes, HP, Sony, Panasonic, etc.

That won't change until it becomes too expensive to make products in Mexico, or if Trump gets elected President.

At least Brunswick is still marketing bowling balls and still headquartered in the US.

Motiv is making it in Michigan. Brunswick couldn't. That should tell you enough about the situation.

It is definitely disappointing that Brunswick moved production to Mexico to save $5M-$6M per year, and eliminated 120 jobs in the process, when they could have simply raised the price of each bowling ball $10 and made $5M-6M more and kept production and equipment stateside.  They are not my first choice in ball manufacturer, but I do have a couple of DV8 and Radical balls purchased on closeout at a very low price.
