New Ogres!!!!
« on: March 31, 2007, 05:47:24 AM »
I have heard there will be 2 new Ogres coming out in April. From the Visionary forum on absolutebowling.com, I had asked if there was a solid particle Ogre in the works...was told it would be out in the fall AND the 2 new Ogres next month would be pearls.

Can't wait!!!!

Agreed on the particle Ogre. If everyone thought the Gargoyles were great, wait till they get a load of the Ogres....

Rev, I thought there was only one Ogre coming out, but on Absolutebowling.com, in the Visionary thread, there is talk of 2, and there are 2 new Ogres on the USBC approved list. One is supposed to handle carrydown well and the other is supposed to be like the Green Gargoyle....I have no first hand knowledge though, just repeating from another forum.

Maybe one is a light load particle pearl?

Sorry Clint, might not have looked enough on absolutebowling.com (will do that right now).

-- UPDATE --

Checked the other forum and USBC...one will be purple/black, the other blue/silver.

Abs...

Any word on a solid particle Ogre, along the lines of a Granite Gargoyle?

The only thing that concerns me about these balls is the low differential. I don't care how strong the cover, I've never seen low diff balls handle a ton of oil.
