The pro shop where my fiance works just got 4 of them but I haven't seen anyone throw them. It's a perty ball, purple with a neon purple lettering.

Dell Warren made it solid because he stated that sometimes pearl have the tendency to wiggle or squirt in a little carry down. They also made this to go against the V2 dry. The V2dry does have the tendency to not turn the corner because the core is too weak.

Ok do you know how strong this ball will be? My experience with Track balls is that they are stronger than what Track puts on paper. I need a ball that is not too strong but stronger than a plastic XXXL. Balls that I am looking at are V2 Dry and XXL how would this new ball fit in with these. I'm all ears.
