was in my pro shop the other day, and the proprietor told me that brunswick no longer wanted to produce morich balls. That I should switch to another brand, or expand as they may not be around. I order all of my balls from him, so he makes the profit. Does anyone know if there is any truth to this?
-
Are there any medium to large business in this country that are not in
economic trouble?
-
wouldn't surprise me but someone else could pick MoRich up if Big b dumps them though to. The E-Z Rev is a tough core to handle. Really not meant for the THS without a control drill pattern.

Vanguard was the core though couldnt get a dud if drilled right with that core. Also they will probably go to 900g like everybody else..... IF that is true.
-
I love the vanguard core, but have really come around to the ez rev core. I would be sad to see them go.
-
I too, like the Vanguard over the EZ Rev core. I just hope someone picks MoRich up. Considering the mislabeled specs and poured pins, a move may not be a bad thing.

I know big B was having this issue I didnt know it went to Mo's stuff also it would make sense though as they are made in the same plant. I have never had a issue with poorly marked gear from Mo

I hope you match up with Storm covers.

TDK do you know something we don't?
I am not to bad with Storms covers, I have had bad carry with Stroms balls though.

Mainzer,
A certain manufacture is looking at restructuring their bowling company (hint)/brand name. In 30-60 days if details get worked out a semi-major annoucement will take place. I personally will be disppointed in the annoucement but the brand may be better in the long run. Only time will tell.
Have a great day

Give me a Virtual Gravity cover wrapped around an EZ-REV core and boom, early rolling strong angularity continuation.
They pretty much already had that with the Ntense, but I think that'd make it more versatile!
Better yet, give me a Break Point coverstock on an EZ-REV core, unstopabble. To be honest, if the switch happens, I think it's for the best. The only reason I like Big B covers is because they absolutely last forever, never had a problem yet. But I don't think they create enough friction on the lane and rely too much on the strength of the core.

Heard from some brunswick ball staffers both pro shop and regional that their sales rep had informed them that their balls might start having new shells, made just a TAD further north of the border.
--------------------
Come AMF/900 or don't come at all!!
-
Wouldn't that be ironic ...

Irony can be pretty ironic ,...can't it ?!

Well Im a big storm fan too but face it the cores dont rev up like Mos stuff and I think that is one thing that DOES help WRW if he had another company I dont think the ball would rev up as well for his style to get a good angle to the pocket. Also I dont think it matters what cover you stick on MOs stuff it will do what a good bowler would need it to. Heck angular Mo stuff has always been a personal favorite(awesome flip and although not flippy the awesome finish is also up there smooth ball with all the recovery I could ask for).
-
man if storm starts pouring Morich i might hafta actually buy one.

A tad bit north of the border might be San Antonio.
Didn't Lane 1 have problems with Brunswick mis marking CGs?

Ive been calling Morich for the last 3 days and end up just getting a recording.

All,
The last info I have is a certain corporate entity is looking to sell their brand name rights. A couple of companies were approached about buying the brand name. One of the companies was interested and is trying to put together the financials. Again, this is what I heard.....
The company putting together the financials in my opinion doesn't have the capacity to produce a new line of business. Will they outsource this to another manufacture. May be Maybe not. Who knows at this point
Did Phil's group purchase the rights to this brand. If so, it would be news to me. I would like to see it.
I just know an announcement will be coming in the 30-60 days.
Have a great evening

Interesting reading, I've had a few discussions within this topic, the slower summer months would be the correct time to revamp a line, retool and ship product to a new mfger's plant for new releases coninsiding with Bowl Expo for releases just prior to fall league season. If I heard correctly Mo's contract was up after the Response with Brunswick.

If something happens where someone else is pouring Mo's stuff,...their drilling stuff won't change. I'm sure it's just tweaks to the page.

Well MO has always been a poineer in the field of core design. However phil and him have not always seen eye to eye, and i dont know if personal feelings would fall into play when it comes to a business decision like that.

Don't know if this is related to the OP, however, I have submitted two drilling requests approximately one month ago, and have never received a response. I've asked questions before via the website and received a response quite quickly.

Knowling Mo, I seriously doubt that he is going out of business now since he has been very succesful with his products. There is an unsubstanciated rumor that he will be going to 900 Global to make his balls.
