Is the Blue Carbide Solid still a heavy oil ball?
« on: August 10, 2004, 09:37:05 AM »
I can get these NIB for really cheap.  I was wondering since it's been about 4-5 years since its release is it still a heavy oil ball by today's standards?  I know it used some early form of Brunswick particle technology, I want to say something along the lines of an MTX or DTX Proactive coverstock.  back in the day it was their big oil ball but how does it stack up now?  I know alot of balls made just 4-5 years ago for Heavy are now medium to medium/heavy balls on todays oil.  Let me know.

Truthfully, I think it would be hard to say, even for someone WITH this ball, for the fact if they still have it, its probably pretty beat. Unless they have a newer one, then they could tell you. (Sorry Im done rambling)
