Title: Throttle On ??
Post by: J_Mac on April 26, 2004, 01:07:24 PM

Just saw this ball name on the ABC approved list for Feb. '04.  Was this an overseas release, or is it next in line after the Full Throttle that was approved Dec. '03?

By the way, is it just me or does this overseas thing look better than all the ones we have?

I come to this site all the time, and I ALWAYS read about bowlers complaining that they release too many balls.  If very company released very ball that they made in the overseas market, there would be a ball a weak, and most distributors would be out of business in 3 months because of all the inventory they would have to keep.

Every ball that is released overseas is released in the US, in some form.

Also in the overseas market, they don't need balls to hook out of the building, they need weaker coverstock balls.  I know from sales, that weaker coverstock balls don't sell well in the US.
