Came out in 1995.......Brunswick's biggest hooking ball at that time.......Powrkoil 17 reactive coverstock. If you look under the retired ball archives at brunswickbowling.com you'll see the Parker Bohn III MVP ball........this is the same ball.

Great ball. The Slingshot has the same cover, but not nearly as aggressive a core. Slingshot has a higher RG and lower diff.

I've sold one on ebay in 15lbs new a few years ago, and see one every once in a while on ebay.

Just buy a Karma solid and you'll be real close at a better price point!!

That's if you can find a Karma Solid in your weight.

Karma solid is a current release and should be easy to find!! I drilled several this week for guys that love it and can't believe the performance for the price!!

My fault guys! I was thinking about the Karma blue/green pearl. Not the solid. I just looked up the solid to see what weights would be available if any. And I'll be dipped, all weights are available in the solid. Original pearl is a lot limited since the pink/purple pearl was announced.
