White pin has a harder cover on it. Pretty much the same as the red pin/green pin zone classics. One is longer and straighter than the other. In this case the white pin is the straighter of the two. The white pin has a higher urethane blend>

Its technical a blem, but they call it white pin so they still can sell it for about the same price.

LL,

Here is a link from bowlingball.com.  According to the site, it is an exclusive product.  Not sure about that, but here is the link:

Hows the shape of the reaction on the white pin?  I love my red pin for med and light oil, and would like something thats also long with a hard arc for burnt lanes.

I think it may still be a bit too strong for burnt lanes. I love mine for a lighter oil shot, but when the oil starts breaking down any more I have to put it away. I just purchased a slate blue gargoyle that will hopefully take over that spot.

As for the shape, it's still very angular like the red pin version...very hockey stick esque

Thanks driller/coach wants me to pick up a sym ball with a larger core for dry lanes, so was thinking of that or a punisher.  He thinks a smaller core ball or something like a grove would be too jumpy for my style.
