Are Comfort Zone and Zone Classic the same ball?
« on: January 30, 2008, 11:26:23 PM »
With same cover and core?

All the ratings are the same, and the numbers of the core read the same, but the picture of the core looks different.

I loved my Zone classic. I only asked because my proshop said that they may be able to get some international Zones (I live in England). They said that they can get a Thunder Zone straight away, but that ball is too strong for the amount of oil I see, so I want to ask them if they could get a Comfort for me.

Note: I'm more of a ball collector who loves bowling rather than a serious bowler, so no lecture on save my money and spend it on coaching please!

I know that Classic Zones are available cheap right now. Check out Rollrite pro shop in Nottingham, they've got them for about £85 (or £80 I get confused with the impulse).

If you're just after something a little different and interesting, then keep pursuing your current line. I have an "international zone" which is a classic in a different colour skin...

the core is the same (rg, diff, psa spin time, etc). the coverstock may be slightly tweaked, not sure (activator vs. activator-7). One of the Big B reps may know the answer.

They are the same ball. The -7 just a index for reaction. I have both and
they react the same. Don't miss the Comfort Zone.

Few people have it here in Denmark.. A friend of mine says they're very close.. Comfort seems just a tad cleaner thru the front in his and my opinion..

Thanks for the info everyone.

I'll ask my proshop and see if they can get one.


AngloBowler,

Yeah, my proshop also told me about a few good close-out deals for Brunswick, so I'll look into that, thanks.
