Doug, AND BrunsBob,
Quite a while back, it was noted in a thread here on the Brunswick forum that the Ice Blue PG, although it was not a "manly" color and did not sell well enough to be retained, it was the strongest of the PG resin pearl series by a significant margin.
Please read another thread here at the Brunswick forum entitled, "Colors on Power Groove". In it, another well-informed user, DP3, tells us a similar story with the current series of PG pearls. As he has proved his veracity time and time again, I cannot doubt his descriptions.
It seems odd that these colors allow such a huge variation in ball reaction.
BrunsBob,
I have to believe that the different colors of PG series, even though Brunswick says they are all PK 17 material, should virtually be re-labelled 3 different coverstocks. AND one or more should be put around a milder core, BUT not a pancake core. ALthough the RG is high, the RG differential is large. Could you get that reduced to say, around .035 - .030, rather than its current .041?
(BTW, Doesn't this PG core virtually have a true mass bias?)
