It sucks the pins off the lanes more than any other ball bar none!

Except by pins I mean "your money", and by off the lanes I mean "from your wallet".

Mark Roth seems to like it. I'm also curious to see how it works (apart from that whole wallet thing).

The core was first used in the Control Zone with N'Control coverstock (PK19),

The last time it popped up was in the Red Alert Plus, with PK18

Probably the Alien is pretty much the same, or it might have a better coverstock (Activator?).

Hopefully they bought Roth some new teeth!! Seriously though. I saw him on one of the old PBA senior tour shows on ESPN Classic last week and his teeth looked aweful. Its hard to believe a man that made that much money over his career and he can't keep his teeth in decent shape. I heard he has been living pretty sparingly the past few years, actually working at a bowling center.. I hate to hear that as Roth was for sure one of my favorite bowlers to watch on TV when I was growing up watching the show on ABC every saturday afternoon.

If they only made a ball that would carry that da_n 7 pin (and I am right handed!!)

Mark Roth is the manager of the bowling alley that I will be bowling a JOG league at in September. Maybe I will ask him about it

Don't belive what Mark Roth said about that ball. They more then likely payed him alot of money to say that. I find it hard to belive he would say that or much less him being into equipment that bad. He wouldn't be the first guy being payed to say something good about a ball.
6 or so years ago Pete Weber promoted a ball, I think the Roto Grip SD-73 I think it was called and he said in a add "If I had this ball I'd win every tournament!" Supposedly was banned from PBA use at the time.

i doubt anyone will ever review this ball because no matter how its advertised it would cost them more than a imported ball due to its 300 dollar online price tag but i to am intrested in how its suppose to almost react based off how the lane is instead of you having to fiddle with release and speed every shot

Yeah, because it is, and Brunswick is in hopes of baiting a poor sucker. If this is the only ball you have to choose from then you got some serious problems.  But I would like to see the actual color.
