Yeah, they're just THAT good.  Also yes, there is a little korean clone of BrunsRicH and BrunsBob.  Soon one of nick smith.  You figured out the secret, now they'll have to kill you, matrix style.

I lived there for 2-1/2 years back in the 70's. If you drink enough Soju, you will see white russians, pink elephants, and all kinds of other weird stuff. Brunswick was real big back then also - The Black Beauty was still around, but the Automatic Scorer and the Custom LTD with the crown tracer were pretty big too. Just the thing for spray-bottle hand oiled beat-to-crap wooden lanes with obnoxious pin boys. You'd better cut the "Little Korean" jokes - Koreans on the average are not "little", and they have been known to take offense rather quickly to perceived insults.

Why do they make overseas balls different than the balls they make for the USA.

We design for what the Asian market wants. They have trends of their own over
there, and we aim to meet the needs of bowlers all over the world.

I'm Filipino, I usually don't mind "racist" jokes, but what Randy said is kinda true. Some of the Korean kids I run into over here are kinda mean, have guns, and are more than willing enough to shoot... at least those gangster-looking ones out here. I'd say leave them alone.

Questions for the Brunswick guys, though. Are the Brunswick International "goods" produced in USA or Korea (I often see balls made in China and Korea, so I am wondering)? If the balls are manufactured in China, where to the "raw materials" that go into bowling balls come from, then? The same place where the USA manufacturing gets theirs, or not? I'm just curious.
