Draxond300 - The dreaded PBA topic.  LOL.  At this point, I don't believe so.  With the rising costs of doing business we are having another growth year without being a fully registered PBA Company.  It would be very difficult to throw that money back into the Budget.  We are waiting for this years proposal.  We will have to wait and see...

Thanks,

Its not the same coverstock, Ultimate Vision Hybrid is presumably even stronger that Sure Grip Revelation. Itll probably handle more oil, so on the same pattern as the SSSE, the Saga should spend energy sooner and maybe not be so sharp. But what it will do is give you angle on really heavy longer patterns, that the SSSE couldnt handle.

Thanks for the correction Dave, I saw pearl/solid blend and figured it was the same cover as the SSSE.  Upon a closer inspection of the website, I saw otherwise.  I'm still excited about the Epic Saga and hopefully, they'll let me order one in the anyball league that I'm bowling in this summer.

Roger, what will Brian LeClair be using out on tour now that he won this years exemption?  I would think Storm huh?  Or can he use any RG equipment just wondering.  

Also, I love all my RG equipment, I pretty much have every ball that came out over the last year and all my new purchases will be RG.  Nothing that Storm comes out with really appeals to me right now.  Love the RS line, I'll have to pick up a new RS-X and RS-P before they are discontinued.  Keep up the good work.

I saw a Saga test ball some time back and everyone is in for a real treat with this release.  I don't think you need to worry about it being too close, reaction wise, to the Horizon.  The Saga looked significantly stronger and more continuous on carry down than the Horizon.  The condition was pretty ugly and I was amazed at how it opened up the lane and hit like a truck.  I haven't seen the Venus, but if it's half as good as the Saturn, I'm gonna have to put an order in for both of these.

If the new Epic Saga is stronger then the Horizon, then doesn't that put it right near the original Epic as far as reactions go? I'm just wondering. I like the looks of that ball, and will start saving up to get one in a few months, in all probability, but still....unless the original Epic is going to be discontinued fairly soon. Then that would make more sense. But...what do I know. I trust the people at Roto know what they are doing. Anyway, both new releases look good and should do well.

Chuck,
I would think not. These are gonna be 3 different monsters(epic line) in their own right. Yes they are in the same line, but this cover is gonna make a world of a difference. I'm not sure how long you've been with RG but if you recall both the Fuels(Top and Pure) shared the same core as the Apocalypse. However they were 3 TOTALLY different balls just because of the coverstocks. This coverstock/core combo is going to fill a void in the High end line since the discontinuation of the apocalypse. I think the Saga is gonna get through the heads a little cleaner and be A LOT crisper on the backend(which is scary!!!)

Chuck,

I think no matter what we do or other companies do, you are going to have overlapping.  My question to you would be, do you plan to purchase every ball we currently make in our line?  Most people don't and that is what we count on.  If the Epic didn't catch your eye enough to get it because it didn't seem like what you wanted, you might buy the Saga.  Make sense?  The Epic has a different core and a solid reactive cover.  

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,

Not every one, no, can't afford that. But I do like the core of the Epics. For that reason I'm interested. Now whether or not interested turns into purchase, that's another question for the future to determine. After all, the Epic Saga isn't even released yet. We're looking at a time frame of fall to winter here, not August.
