The BVP Mammoth brings two new technologies into the BVP line, Multi-Sided Symmetric Core Technology, and Activator High Load Particle Coverstock to create performance that improves on the reaction of balls such as the BVP Goliath and Swamp Monster.

Multi-Sided symmetric core designs have been used in Brunswick High Performance balls since 2000.  Featuring exotic shapes that are easy to drill, the Multi-Sided shape is locked into the outer core, leaving little chance for core separation.  The Rocket Core used in the 14-16 pound Mammoth pushes the RG to a lower level than previous BVP balls.  Brunswick research has shown that lower RG’s are a better match for today’s lane conditions, which often include: high efficiency lubricants, daily full-lane stripping and longer, higher volume lane oil patterns.  In this environment, lower RG’s improve mid-lane traction and reduce over/under reactions at the breakpoint.

The Mammoth utilizes a High Load Particle version of Activator Coverstock Technology.  Activator coverstock technology was introduced into Brunswick High Performance Balls in 2003 and is known for its durability and ball reaction.  The Mammoth’s Activator high load particle coverstock propels it to the highest hook potential rating ever for a Brunswick ball.  

The specifications for the BVP Mammoth are: Core: Low RG: Coverstock: Activator High Load Particle: Color: Blue / Copper solid: Hardness: 76-78: RG Rating (actual): 2.499: (differential): 0.045: Weights: 10-16: Hook Potential: 165: Length: 40: Breakpoint Shape: 45

Not surprised to see Activator Particle make the jump to the BVP line, Activator Solid is still new and being used and Activator pearl way to valuable to be in the BVP line.

Activator can now be lowered to BVP line due to Octane being introduced I guess.... sweet!

**The Rocket Core used in the 14-16 pound Mammoth pushes the RG to a lower level than previous BVP balls.**

so what core will be used in 12 & 13 lbs?

Hmmm, I heard rumors (from a trustworthy Bruisnwick source round here) that the Goliath had an Activator-based coverstock, too, just that noone mentioned it in the marketing material. I have the uneasy feeling that this is only a new core introduction, but not a new shell? But that's just me.

If the Mammouth has a new/lower RG core, that might be the source of its slightly higher hook potential - but we'll have to see.

Ah, maybe a light load solid ball with a low RG in the future? An Eliminator replacement?

Hmm, guess I was half right.  I thought we would see Activator on a BVP.  The guys who jumped in and said it wouldn't work with the BVP core must have been right too if they changed it.

Yes, this is our first time to be able to make a multi-color particle ball.

BrunsMike,
   BVP in October and Zone in December? Not sure what you mean.

Well, I originally only heard of a new Zone ball coming out this december. Had no idea that theres gonna be 3 new balls in the next 2-3 months. BVP should have been November, not October.

Just to be clear.....BVP and Inferno in November, no Zone in December.

Some rumors are fun to read, but I don't want y'all getting all the release date info all screwed up, nor do I want y'all expecting 3 new balls under your tree for Christmas and only getting 2.

I've already said too much. LOL.

Enjoy,
