Title: Has anyone thrown a Neptune 2?
Post by: skbowl800 on October 06, 2008, 03:43:52 AM
How does it differ from the first one?  I have seen two websites and one says it is a solid and the other says pearl, which is it?  Bowlingball.com has it rated a little higher than the original neptune on their perfect hook scale.

It's an overseas ball: http://www.bowlingballreviews.com/ball.asp?ballid=3325. BowlingBall.com sometimes gets some from different manufcaturers. Generally it's not available to the bowling public in the USA.

FYI BolwingBallReviews says it's a pearl.

I have both and they seems the same to me.  The coverstock is a great color contrast.

I cannot explain the difference ala the perfect scale but they performance to me seems comparable.

Thanks for clearing that up guys.  I was just a little curious cuz bowlingball.com said it was just a reactive and bolwingballreviews said it was a reactive pearl.  I am thinking about getting one a drilling it up real strong to compare it to my currently weak drilled Neptune.

Hello,

It will be a great compliment to your weaker drilled ball.  My original Neptune is drill stable and the 2 is drilled stronger and the compliment each other well.
