I got mine last week.  I think the old classic Brunswick logo looks great... very retro.  Sparkle pin I could do without but I definitly like the ball colors.

Had mine drilled pin 1" directly above center of bridge.  Tried it out and it just skated down the lane.  My Smokin out hooked it.  Had to play almost a direct line to the pocket.  When I got home I hit it with 1000 Abralon and then Clean N Dull.  Went to try it out and now I get a nice hard move to the pocket, just what I was lookin for.  288 first game.  It really does take surface adjustments well, just like Brunswick says. I think I'm gonna really like this one.

My Fury Pearl is an instant favorite.  Too much fun for a bowling ball...

The ball is going to be great! I have a pulled muscle and couldn't get thru the ball real good, but still managed a 686. I have mine drilled pin under and between the fingers, it's 11/2" above midline and it's very clean in the heads and has a very smooth strong arc on the back! I placed the WH on line from GC thru CG 1" past my VAL! I just got the Blast Zone as well, but I haven't decided how I was going to drill it! Pin under fingers rolls the best for me! Thanks, Bruce

Now for a little update...sorry the wait, just trying to get a real feel for the ball...

On a fresh 38' house shot, the ball was amazing. I am definitely going to rate this in the top 3 balls I have ever thrown. First off, It is such a predictable ball, I could play anywhere with it. I could throw striaght up 1st arrow and the ball would stay smooth as butter all the way to pocket. It didnt jump or overreact at all. I could play my normal line, laying it down in between the head arrow and 1 to the right, and the ball would read the lanes like a textbook. It bit the dry right when you would expect it to(97% of the time, easily) and go straight to the pocket. I would stand against the ball return and throw it out to 1st arrow. Half the time(im being honest too), I didnt think it would come back. But sure enough, it would (seemingly) check up early and shoot back to the pocket for a solid hit.
The ball is amazming through the pins. I havent left any solid 8's, 9's, or 10's. I Have left a few ten pins, but when I did, it felt like I brought my hand around the side of the ball, which might be why.
In my sat morning league, I shot 1109 for my first 5 games in the league, averaging a 221.8. On sun, I came back to bowl and shot 1061 for the 5 again.

I got a chance to bowl on a scorpion pattern with it also. Due to the fact that the ball was so predicable, I threw it the first 5 games(of the 8 I had to bowl) and averaged 196.27 with it. It did however start to over react once the lanes started to break down. I you adjusted though, It would still be just as predictable from that spot.

Overall, I would give it a 10 out of 10. It is amazing ball, one of the most predictable I have seen since the Absolute Inferno.

Great Job Again Brunswick, keep em coming!!!

Thanks,
Chrispy

PS-I will have pics up tomorrow. Sorry about the delay.
