Carl,  you are correct.  I have used brunswick balls since 1995 as well.  I LOVED the Gold Rhino Pro which I used to shoot my 1st 300 game.  I have had many Brunswick balls, and the current line of snake named balls is very good!  I also currently have 5 other Big B balls.  I had an issue with 1 other Brunswick ball which was a speed zone - speed demon in which the cover would get a slick film all over the ball, but if you let it sit for 5 minutes it would go away and the cover would be normal.  I never got it replaced, but I did use it for 2 years before the condition was seen.  This post was intended to see if any other people on here has seen something like this when drilling a bowling ball.  I support Big B, and continued success.

Mexico is still a part of the America's and the last time I checked, China isn't connected to the "America's"! People please use the equipment that you're comfortable using and if it's different than what someone else is using, so be it! We are still able to have free choice for the time being! I choose Roto Grip and have great success with their product and quality!

Drrev2000, man you are way behind the times. if you carefully read my last post on checking brunswick balls for quality control you would have remembered that i was at my pro shop for three hours while i had three new balls drilled. my wife had taken her father to the doctor for extensive tests so i lots of time to kill. in those three hours i managed to visually check every single brunswick bowling ball he had in stock. and every single brunswick ball passed the visual inspection with flying colors. all logos, pins, cg's, psa's, etc. were the correct colors and were where they were supposed to be. each ball had the correct finish that was required( dull ,matte, polished ). i don't need a meatal detector or an mri to notice this ....just a keen eye and a little experience. besides, my health insurance wouldn't approve the mri without a recommendation from my primary care provider...............
