I found an oldie but goodie in my crawl space tonight.
« on: September 07, 2006, 03:13:47 PM »
Helping out my dad tonight cleaning the place up I ran across an older looking bag. Open it up, found a Brunswick Zone Proactive! Its a 16#er but a while back my thumb didnt fit in the ball. SO I put her away forgetting about it. Well I put my fingers in, they need to be changed but fit and my thumb actually went in the thumb hole, remove the tape and do a quick sanding and the ball will be good to go again. Cant wait to use it again!! Back when I used it in 1996-1999 it would hook 10-15 boards, played 20-7 with it.

This is what I found but in 16#:

Not to hijack, but do you know what Zone is brown?

The old Shock Zone was the closest to "brown" in the Proactive series that I recall offhand. They,

called it "Burgundy Sparkle".

What's the deal with that Revo? I've never done anything to you.

Hmm, it wasn't that. It looks kind of like The Grizz. Except it says Zone Proactive on it.

A kid in my league uses a brown ball that says Zone Proactive so I was just wondering. Not trying to ruffle anyones feathers.

as a staffer, he should be representing the company in the best way possible.

not acting like a 10 year old telling people with legitimate questions that they're an Idiot.

way to make a bad company look even worse! <thumbs up>

Haha, it's not a problem. Just kind of wondered what I did.

There were 3 specific Zone Pro proactives. The azure (purple), teal, and the brownish one. If I recall right, the brown one had the least aggressive of the covers.
