Same Core ...different ball... DIFFERENT PRODUCER?
« on: November 22, 2007, 11:33:28 PM »
Hi!

by accident I found this:
http://www.ballreviews.com/Reviews/Reviews.asp?ManufacterID=9&BallID=205
http://www.ballreviews.com/Reviews/Reviews.asp?ManufacterID=12&BallID=713

Both balls seem to have the same core... now I have no clue about Nu-Line.. but my question is:

Has anybode else found balls with the same core but being manufactured by totally differenc brands?

Nu-Line was manufactured in the Columbia plant, which is the same as the Track line. The top flip block is different and the RG and Diff number are different. If you look at the new AMF Heist and it's weight block is similar as well. It falls in the line of shared technology and all being manufactured in the same plant! Thanks, Bruce
P.S. Check out Track's RevMaster!

Yes, NuLine used to be made in the same San Antonio plant as Track & Columbia. I actually HAD the Virus and it was a very good ball for me.
