I'm sure it was PK18, little higher rg and diff. Same sort of shape as smash zone but overall a little weaker I guess, not as early.

Sounds to me like a remake of the 2007 Étoile, the special edition ball of that year. Was PK18 pearl with the higher RG/lower diff. Inferno core from the Raging or Scorchin'. I would not wonder if they did just the same, just changing colors and engravings.

But I haven't seen or heard anything about the One Shot so far. The Étoile appreared around here for sale and on the lanes in very small numbers last year, and I have the drilling sheet PDF somewhere (it was posted on the tournament website in 2007).

I saw this ball at the Brunswick Euro Challenge in France a couple of days ago and didn't see any infos of the ball at the bowl. It kind of looked like a Blazing Inferno and wanted to bring it back home as a souvenir for my dad.

Thank you Pascal for posting the spec sheet!

Could be an Elite ball... PK18 pearl with a Control Zone core. Nothing bad, but also nothing fancy?

Even in Rash's hands it didn't look overly impressive.

Rick Benoit was laying them out with pins very close to bowlers axis.

Yup, due to the screaming backends.

Hey mate,

Did you play this year?



BTW I'm guessing you'll be going to the Nationals this week or next, so good luck mate... kick some butt!

Hey mate,

Didn't bowl that great, got close to the cut in a few squads but still missed. Playing nationals this weekend. Look forward to seeing you soon mate.
