Saw on bowl.com that there is a Gold Zone with two color schemes. One looked a lot like what Sean was throwing in the bottlegate 2 video. Still doubt they will release any info until bowl expo.

Does look like the ball Rash used in the vid. I would guess it isn't the same ball, and the two Zones would likely be an overseas/private label release. We shall see soon enough....

Since most of it doesn't release till late June and into mid and late July I wouldn't waste my time pre-ordering anything since there is no back order. Most people won't look at bowling stuff till a week or two before leagues.

Not sure what problems they have had other then people hate that they moved the plant to Mexico. Still with only another week or two left I don't think it is a big deal. I've thrown a lot of their equipment over the past several years and never lost a step in one line to the next. They have had several bowling balls with PK18 and it doesn't look to be going away soon with the two Karmas and the Damage all using it. I have drilled 3 Wicked Sieges and only one of them rolled weird. It was on a different pattern I've not tried and won't be trying ever again lol.
It's like finding out what is for Christmas and then having to wait around to freakin play with them. I won't lie and say beside knowing the names I am curious to see the product.

Not sure if this has been mentioned before --
Got my July issue of BTM today. It has an ad for a new ball, C-(System) ulti-max, spelled just that way.
It looks like a dark red and medium red pearl (it is polished & shiny).
The ad says it provides
"the most aggressive backend reaction in a Brunswick bowling ball ever",
"enhanced projection down the lane while saving axis rotation for more energy on the backend and through the pins",

I'd be happy to see something pearl/shinned in the Systems series. The 3.5 and Max were two I never even considered because I rarely see that kind of oil in league or tournaments. The 4.5 and 2.5 were great for a larger variety of conditions.
We all know that Hook Monsters sell, and I figured that was what they were going to stay with in the systems line.

Isn't that the ball Rash is throwing in Bottlegate 2?
Don't believe in the Uzi, it just went off in my hand. I, I believe in love.

Saw a couple of Brunswick staffers using a "Lethal Revolver" at last weeks Melbourne Tenpin Cup on a 44 foot WTBA "London" pattern. Looked very nice indeed, a red solid. Quite strong on that pattern for strokers.
Love my Loaded cant wait to see Lethal and maybe the Massive. Brunswick should do a Christmas in July ball release special.

Oh boy, I love my Damage and can't wait to see the Massive. IMO one of the most under-rated balls to come out in awhile with many of us never seeing the lane conditions to justify the big hook monsters rolling off the lines. The high RG core in the Damage gets great length but the PK18 cover and the differential gets the strong backend motion. I wonder what changes they made in the new one.

Doug,
I heard a rumor it was going to be a solid cover on the new damage. Can't remember where I heard it but for what it is worth thats what I heard
