My understanding is that it is a new domestic ball.  A "modified" Ogre core (with a wrap to lower the RG) and a pearlized shell with a "light load" of the same particles used in the Ogre Particle.  I personally can't wait to get my hands on one.

"It is a light load particle pearl, with a denser version of the ogre core with a full wrap.  This lowered the rg, and increased the differential significantly from what you would see with the ogre.

Ball rolls great, and surface changes can make the ball do a lot of different things.  Out of box it will handle heavier oil patterns (not floods but fairly heavy).  It will also be the first ball to include our new corporate logo."

I went to the Visionary web site to check out the specs on this ball. What I saw was the "BIG" announcement of the Samurai, which came out almost exactly ONE YEAR ago.

This forces me to ask this question: Is Visionary Bowling products actually still in business?"

Is this all hoopla one big joke?

Yep, they are still in business and do a ton of business overseas. Only problem is the factory is right around the corner from the Ferguson riots north of St Louis. Try to get everything moving in the right direction with that going on. Not happening.

WOWZERS!

Jason doesnt  really care about facebook, or for that matter the  website any more. He is old school in his thinking on certain things. I have asked him about updating and he just shrugs it off..
