I was able drill up one of the new Ebonite Allure balls this week. Word on the street was this ball would be a replacement for the Rhodman Pearl by Hammer. The coloring is very similar being purple & silver with yellow writing but for me that is kind of where the similarities ended. ( Both gorgeous  For me, the Rhodman is a smoother more forward rolling ball. The Allure is slightly longer and more angular once it reads the friction. It goes through the pin deck very strong. I would be more likely to leave a stone 9 pin than a 10 the way this ball crushes through the pocket. Very nice first pearl by Ebonite under the Brands of Brunswick.
