I bought the Crux Pearl instead of the Crux, and went from the proshop to my league sweeper event. I had my ball drilled strong and it was very clean thru the heads, strong backend move, and good carry. I rolled a 723 series which won the scratch side pot. My only complaint is leaving an occasional solid 8 pin on a crushing pocket shot (right hander). The Crux Pearl is an impressive ball for medium to medium light oil conditions.
