Who makes the coverstock and are they oil hungry covers?
-
Do they soak up oil like the ebo covers do?
-
It's like owning a car. Just keep it washed regularly and have the oil drained and changed at regular intervals and you will be fine.
I don't know about the newer "OCTANE" covers, but powerkoil and activator covers seem to last a long time for me.

Get yourself some Ebonite Powerhouse Clean n Dull and use it after each time you bowl. By far the best cleaner I have used. If you can find any left over Track Clean n Dull you will save a few bucks. Same product just renamed after Ebonite took over Track. Bowlingball.com has both versions.

....The Brunswick cover seems to be the only thing good about them too. Not to rip on MoRich (as I am sure they are quality products) but I feel if it wasn't for The Brunswick covers, I think the cores would be worthless. Let's be honest, the coverstock has almost everything to do with ball reaction .. look at a Power Groove..no real core but goes like a truck.

No, you're wrong there. Maybe you might not have had much success with MoRich and neither have I, BUT their cores make the Brunswick covers into another whole different animal. And that animal is called MoRich.
Yes, they react a little differently from most other balls; Yes, their drilling needs to be specific to the bowler's release, and yes, the bowler should, in general, release the ball the same way or else they can get a very different reaction, AND, yes, they provide more "help" for the weaker handed bowler or the ball speed dominant bowler, than any other ball I know of.
But, bottom line is, without a doubt, that they are a very good set of bowling balls. If you've ever had one prepared for you, for your game, by a knowledgable driller, you know what I mean.

They might, but they will still hook after some good use unlike sanded Ebonite covers. I dont get along with Ebonite covers due to longevity issues.
Yes, I clean all of my stuff religiously.

In fact, I am happy that MoRich uses Brunswick covers, and not the real "state of the art", rather older (but nevertheless strong!) stuff. IMHO, they are very good combos with the cores, and the difference between a sophisticated MoRich core and a counterpart from Brunswick with a rather middle-of-the-road core is IMHO huge. I like to think of MoRich balls as options if you know what you want the ball to do - they are surely not balls for everyone and for every situation. But they fill a gap in the market, and as far as I can tell all my MoRich balls (with big B covers) have been very durable - and if you take care of your equipment this should basically be the case with any ball.
