Question about Forest Green Quantum
« on: April 11, 2006, 10:07:40 AM »
Could someone help me here?  I have been looking for info on the Forest Green Quantum.  I am wanting to know mainly what is the coverstock on this ball?  OOB finish, and is it particle or reactive?

I know this is an oldie, but I have an opportunity to try one out, so any info you can provide is appreciated.

when the forest green quantum came out( 1994 ) particle balls had not yet been developed. this was also the first $200 ball on the market. it came from the factory sanded---not sure of the grit. johnny petraglia shot a televised 300 game with this ball at the 1994 pba national championship.

i think P-Trags lost 279-300 vs. Bob Learn Jr. on TV with a fire quantum too.

quantum is the way to go, even now, just goes to show how far brunswick was ahead of the era back in the mid 90's.

i guess thats is why i have 8 quantums, NIB waiting for me to reach my bowling potential to get drilled (it may be a while).
