That's a Brunswick number and it's on a scale of 1-10, 10 being the highest RG available. 2.8 out of 10 is still low RG.

I really like my Lane #1 Gemstone. Low rg - 2.61, high rg - 2.652. .042 diff. It gets down the lane well and saves a lot of energy for the back.

Thanks for your responds.  I think I should of re-word this a little.  Out in the market today, what I am looking for is overall best performance ball.  The ball that gets long length and gets the best reaction in the ends.  My Hot Sauce does roll up early and the Magic doesn't get the long length I am looking for.  I did get them for specific reasons and have no intentions of getting rid of them, I am just looking for another piece to my puzzle, and on paper the Evolve and Nasty Widow looks great in my opinion.  I wanted to know if anyone that has thrown any of these (perfer someone that has thrown both) can shed a little light on them and maybe there is something out there that might be a little better.

That''s still not a good briefing for recommendations, but if I get you right, you are looking for something more "harmless" with more versatility. Then, I''d recommend looking at a mid-range piece with a low mass bias core. High end stuff tends to be very specific for a certain condition and reaction - if you want to haul around 6 balls that are only good for a small window, well, it is up to you. But I''d add a really simple piece, e. g. from Hammer''s Raw line (or even an Onyx Vibe), or from Brunswick''s Snake ball line (I know these are not high RG balls, just want to point out options).
With a medium drilling and a sheen surface (e .g. 4.000 Abralon), this should be a very good fall-back option that works on a wide range of conditions. Might not be flippy, but effective and round up your arsenal.

The Fury Pearl is a low RG ball, but not because it's a 2.8 on a 1 to 10 scale.  This is how the spec is listed on this site:  "RG Average: 2.515 (Low) on a scale of 2.43-2.80 Very Low-High Break Point"
