It depends on your ball speed. Low rev strokers who have a fair amount of ball speed tend to do a little better with low RG balls. Low rev strokers with slower ball speed tend to have more success with higher RG balls.

ok thanks didnt know that so taboo maybe my thing?

I'm sure it will be good just like every other ball on the market. I bet someone will love it, and then I bet someone will say they don't.
Any bets?

Just ric...U R Kidding right...Who just came out with 2 more NEW MODELS...The Wicked and the Damage....
This is common, especially at this time of the year...
Plus, I seriously doubt we will see these new releases FOOTBALLED in the first few weeks after the release date...
Like YOU KNOW WHO WAS...............
So pro shops can actually order these balls for STOCK and feel SAFE with the price they paid for them from their dist.....
Now how many pro shops can order those OTHER 2 new releases at FULL DIST PRICE and FEEL SAFE PAYING >>> FULL DIST. PRICE...
I would think, like none............
Oh, one more thing... We have already had the NEED to reorder on most of the OTHER new releases...
just so you know

I thought a pearl version of the pure physics was due out. but this ransom ball seem to be something else. What's super tilt coverstock? the pure physics had the full tilt 7.5, so shouldn't the pearl version be full tilt 7.5 pearl like they did on the others? Also the core looks the same to me I don't see any changes.
Mayne this ball is for another catagory and not the pearl pure physics..

OK, so we now have the Pure Swing replacement, I think I will pass on this ball because in general I didn't have a whole lot of luck with the Pure Swings. Most of the time it was 2 or 3 in a row followed by a nasty split.
-
This ball will be a great replacement for the Bedlam line. That line was hit or miss, for sure...
From what I understand, the core on the Ransom is the same shape as the Full Swing core but with altered densities to change the RG and Diff. As for cover strength, I'm not sure where the cover fits into their current lineup.
Either way, I'm definitely excited to throw this ball. My Complete Bedlam's were alright, nothing spectacular. I'm thinking this new Ransom will take over where the Complete left off.

from my local columbia rep, this ball flat out FLYS on the backend. It's about as strong as the PP.
