I just picked up a BLEM Orange Warlock from Visionary and for the life of me, I couldn't see anything wrong with it.

Perfect specs as well.

Man does anyone here have any idea how bad I want to get a 15# Midnite Scorcher? I want one for the shop so that people stop calling me a liar when I tell them there was a ball out that got fuzzy when you put oil on the ball and it made it hook MORE than before the oil...if there are any English teachjers present I apologize for the run on sentence

That clear Gargoyle is mighty tempting though.

Doug,

The Granite Gargoyle did the same as far as getting fuzzy.  The new Ogre Particle is supposed to do the same also.

But they are all BLEMs. The problem with them is you don't really know what the blemish is!

More important that the Clear Gargoyle is there is an Infra Red Amulet and 2 urethanes: a Glowing Amulet & the Slate Blue Gargoyle. They are much more rare: dynamite urethanes that are REALLY useful unlike some other brands I can name.

I've got a NIB Violet Gargoyle blem sitting at work.  I looked at it and nothing stood out that needed the BLEM stamp in the ball.

To me....the fact that Jason and company puts a blem on a ball that we can't see anything wrong with is a good thing...in my opinion.
