so far on Mo's site the Sahara was referred to as a MILD pearl.

= Brunswick punisher coverstock....VERY clean with lots of recovery if dry can be found!

Punisher & Sahara a pretty different balls - IMHO the Sahara is easier to control since it has the stronger core. Less nervous than a Punisher, and more versatile on medium to medium-dry conditions. Probably the GS&A will be a bit harder to control through the flippy Vanguard core?

My take on the Sahara is that it is sensational!

REmember little coverstock adjustments can really make the diffference.

LOVE that clean coverstock wrapped around that strong recovery core....Gosh I love that core!

Overseas....doubt Mo would release one after just releasing the Awesome...I could be wrong though.
