Don,
Bruce is a Staffer, they usually receive every ball 2-4 weeks before the Universal Release Date. DV8 and Brunswick releases will probably never fall on the same date. We do this for a few reasons, but mainly to separate the brand identities and spread out the releases.
Enjoy the Hell Raiser Terror, I had a chance to demo it the past 2 weeks and the ball is a winner. I love the Hell Raiser line and the Terror boasts a tight spin with a very quick response to friction. I liked the pin down (roughly 50x4"x60) without an xhole on the fresh. For when they break down, my favorite 60x5x30 layout will be great for opening up the lanes.
