Who has experience with the Goliath?
« on: August 26, 2004, 02:58:25 AM »
I've had this posted on the Brunswick board for several days with only a handful of responses, so I thought I'd try it here.

Now that the Goliath has been out for a while, I'd like to know what those who have thrown it THEMSELVES have to say about it. I've gone back into June and read all the posts that have Goliath in the topic, but would like more info. Mainly I want to know whether or not to recommend it to my customers. If anyone has thrown both it and the Lane 1 Super Carbide Bomb on the same conditions, I'm interested to see how they compare. Please, first hand experience only. This could include pro shop operators that have drilled it for their customers and then observed the results. Thanks in advance -- JohnP

This looks to be Brunswick's replacement for the Swamp Monster.  There's a TON of those balls in our area with very good success.  I have yet to see one thrown, but Big B seems to have a pretty decent thing going with this BVP line, as the PowerKoil 18 coverstock on the Nemesis is one of the best coverstocks in the industry, so the Goliath should be every bit as good as the rest of Brunswick's recent introductions.

Hey John, I am getting a goliath soon and my dad has a super carbide bomb but we have the same span so I can throw his and give you some reviews of them when I throw them.
