blueberry question
« on: October 28, 2003, 11:41:03 PM »
What is the deal with the bluberry?  It is not listed on the LANE 1 website as a retired ball.  No one carries it.  The only talk about that ball is how great it is.  Well, I want one.  I'm going to give Lane 1 a try in the next few weeks, and I heard that the blueberry is a great intro into Lane 1 products.  That and I've heard nothing but rave reviews for it, so I figure why not?  I will definitely get it through my local proshop b/c he has been very good to me with ball discounts, resurfacing etc and i've always been a fan of sticking to one proshop.  I just want to know what the deal is with that ball.  Anyone know?

Go with either the Cranberry or the Black Cherry!

If you want to experience the heavy roll and heavy hit of the dual diamond core I would suggest getting an Emerald if you can't find a BB anywhere.  For me the Cranberry is very over/under.  The ball lopes thru the heads and makes a very sharp break for the pocket.  The Emerald starts rolling much sooner and has that nice controlled break and heavy hit.  Take care....JS

I have both the Emerald and Blueberry. Unless you have medium-heavy oil or heavy oil, go with the Emerald. It is everything that JS said and more.
