I guessed the whole time the Red Zone would be Activator Advance with the Impulse Zone core. A polished Activator solid is pretty much the same as a Strike Zone with shine, but so what? Have a Strike Zone sanded and a Red Zone polished. 2 balls, 2 different reactions. Replacing the Nemesis with the Wizard is fine, same ball with different colors. I will probably drill one seeing I have just sold my Nemesis and drill it different than my Nemesis to get another reaction. I look forward to these releases along with a new Inferno in the fall.

Laner

P.S. I drilled another Smokin' last week 5 x 2 1/2 (imaginary MB after spinning the ball on the Determinator) and it is a beast. Long and smooth, hits like a tank.

If the Nemesis is a great ball and a reaction needed in the lineup then keep it in the lineup and release something else that is needed in the lineup.  Brunswick should've chosen colors that sold in the first place and then there wouldn't have been a reason to change.  Anyone that says "Well they didn't know that the public would be unresponsive to the colors" has never seen the Nemesis.  It is an ugly ball period.  

As far as the Red Zone being a ball to fill the gap left by the Classic and Impulse, well leave the Classic there and come up with something different.  A ball with the asym core and Advance made perfect sense.  There is no true skid snap entry in the zone series.  I use my Vapor with a bit of shine to it when my Awesome Flip is turning too hard, yet currently the vapor is the snappiest of the zone asyms.  If I try to move deep with it it leaves many more flat tens than the more angular Awesome Flip.  If they put the advance on the new release, it would create essentially a longer version of the awesome flip that would be great when the lanes break down a bit and one wants a long and strong piece.

So Machine101. Do you actually have any proff of this? Since the PK covers are one of the best ever made by any company ever. I severly doubt Brunswick would keep them in their lineup if they "died". Also, the Inferno covers are absolutely amazing. Granted some people had problems with the Absolute (I personally didn't), but other than that everyone loved the Ultimate and the Smokin' is alot better of a ball than people think. People look at the numbers and say, oh boy, it's a higher rg core so now it won't work.. and they don't buy it.

So.. let's hear your reasoning.. since I bet there are going to be alot of people that go ahead and agree with me on this one.

Machine101.. since you bowl with Track.. was that bowling a 101 with a Machine and your celebrating by making that your screenname. Good job man! 23 pins above average, eh?

lol your killing me dude. im 15 years old - and i throw a ball 18-19 mph and im looking for that great hook and great backend. The ball has died such as the inferno series has because of the fact that they die out and get passed up by other brands early. I do have one thing to say about Brunswick. I love their BVP Ambush - which is my ball for picking up spares. Great Ball - i love it. But the fact that the Scorchin Inferno' is just not the trick - is why i went to track. and no dude - i can throw a 101 with my left - actually i've thrown a 201 with my left and yes i am aspadyxerous(however you spell it). I've thrown a 758 series with my machine and a 299 before - so please-  if you think im a noob at this game - im not. Just because i say something about a shi t as s ball brunswick makes - you get pissed. You trying throwing a high series with that scorchin..

I feel bad for all the other track users.  They have a great forum with a ton of very knowledgable people, and here you come along and make track users seem like a bunch of dolts.

You should contact Brunswick about a possibly defective ball, then.  I cannot argue your experience with Brunswick balls and tell you that a ball hasn't died when it has.  I know it's not a simple case of the ball burning up because anyone who can shoot a 758, 299, and, left-handed, a 201 clearly knows the difference between a ball that's died and one that's just burned up all its energy.

But PK18 and Activator have well-earned reputations for longevity and durability, they are among the longest lasting covers on the market.  If yours really have died with such limited use, then clearly you have faulty equipment that should be replaced quickly, while they're still under warranty.  Talk to your pro shop about getting replacements.  You shouldn't accept what is obviously defective, abnormal equipment.

   I cannot and will not go into detail on here, but in order to stay in business a ball company needs to sell balls. We must continue to create new product that appeals to the public cosmetically and with performance. You personally may be in the market (or not) for a NEW reaction, but there are 1000's of customers out there getting into a ball for the first time or upgrading to something new and we must appeal to them also.
   When we create product, our main goal is to maintain a complete lineup in all of our product lines. When we create a hole in our ball chart by removing a ball that is dead in sales, we must try and fill that void with something new and exciting to the buying public. That's business, whether it's balls, bags, shoes, cars, boats, bikes, TVs, food, drinks, etc......

   I personally am proud of how we've maintained a strong lineup of balls for all levels of bowlers without flooding the market with numerous releases.

definitely going to agree here... that is one thing that has been true and stays true about brunswick,,, they do not flood the market with balls that have similar reactions or anything of that nature... each ball plays a roll

the new wizard will be predictable because its a remade nemesis

the red zone.. i am just wondering if it will be any different than a factory strike zone....

and the new inferno we will all wait and see about

the way the zone line has been going.... the red zone will not in any way be bad... it cant be with how the zone line has been going and how strong it is... i just hope it doesnt overlap a polished strike zone... thats all

Expected release dates? Im getting a red zone, regardless of this alleged "overlap/recycling".
