Title: Awesome Hook
Post by: J_Mac on June 02, 2006, 10:17:52 AM
Soon to be released.  Vanguard core with flip blocks on the top and the bottom.  Coverstock is the same as the TS&A I believe and is dark and light blue.  Perhaps similar to Dynothane's Anomaly

Are you thinking Flip or Hook?  First I had heard anything about the Awesome Hook and usually I see this sort of thing online before I go to my local proshop.

We are doing a new video on the Awesome Hook, which I should have them around the 3rd week of June.  So I will post as soon as we complete the video.

Where will the Hook fit into the current arsenal? I have the Seek and Destroy, Total Shock & Awe and Awesome Flip right now. Where will the AH fit in?

Not sure yet until I get a chance to throw the Awesome Hook. The Hook is resin though so it should be a pretty strong reactive resin ball, stronger than the Total with more backend I would think.  Stay Tuned.

Stronger than the Total with more backend? That's going to be sick. The Total, in box finish, is the grippiest resin ball I've ever thrown. I had to polish mine up in order to use it on anything less than a flood! This should be something to see!

Brunswick sent me a picture of it yesterday, its blue with a slite touch of yellow. it reminds me of a columbia hyde but brighter. it has flip caps top and bottom, the diff is 0.55 and rg is 2.5ish..This will be another winner from Mo..

This is the first I'm hearing of this ball.  Perhaps they are finally tying the double flip caps.  There have been reports of them putting it in their past few releases, but they opted for the top flip cap instead.  I have been thinking about an agressive solid reactive for a while, perhaps a TS&A or an old school TA or the Scorchin', but looks like I got my answer, none of the above.  Also looking foward to your video Team Morich.

Colors look like a Tsunami, will have to see if Scott has one yet tomorrow. Sounds like a sick ball with a TON of overall hook.

The TSA looks to be alot earlier and more arcy. The AH gets better length and has a much more angular move to the pocket.

I'll be down to punch that one up just like I was to punch the AF.  Looks very interesting.

One other thing.  It could be a stronger ball than the TS&A although the photo says other wise.  Remember how dusty the TS&A was, like 400 or 500 grit matte.  Its a little hard to read on the photo, but the grit could be higher.

I just heard from my Pro Shop guy that Mo said that I should have 3 of Awesome Hooks here this Friday and we are planning on making the video Sat evening.
The box surface is 500 if I remember correctly.

Post by: Jeffrevs on June 06, 2006, 06:46:24 AM
sounds to me like a release to give you a different look than the S&D and TS&A ...complementing it....

Giving it an early read like the TSA, but also the backend potential of the S&D

I'll have to agree with you on that. The TS&A looks like it works better in oil. =:^D

I punched out 3 Awesome Hooks last weekend and we made the video last Saturday night.  It turned out great.  I am waiting on approval from Mo to post the video.  He is in Vegas the next couple of weeks for the Bowl Expo.
A little hint on how the Hook's rolled, they had a lot more backend reaction than I expected from such a strong core and cover.  I will keep you guys posted...   Until next time Go Morich !!!

Mo wants to show the video at Bowl Expo first before we post it on the web.

I know the Web site says "for heavier oil", but I'm still thinking that the Total Shock & Awe would be the better choice for true soup. I'm thinking that, for me, it may be best to knock my Total Shock & Awe back to box finish and then add the Total Hook, maybe even with a hint of polish. Then the top of my arsenal would look like this:

Flood: Total Shock & Awe (Box)
Heavy: Seek and Destroy
Med-Heavy: Awesome Hook
Medium: Awesome Flip

I personally think that if you drilled both the TSA and Awesome Hook with the  same layout and same surface that the Awesome Hook would hook more than TSA.
The core is stronger with the extra cap.  I have thrown both these balls and tested with Mo diferrent surfaces and when we scuffed up the Awesome hook it was "more ball" than the TSA.

I should find out this week when we can put the video on the web.  Bowl Expo should be wrapping up by the end of the week where Mo was first displaying the new ball with the video.
