Kind of has that Char Ex look Jason.  

It will be a good addition to the Ogre line.

Hmmmm....wondering if I found my next ball!! LOL!!!

Also, thanks to Juggernaut who supplied me the link to get back the history I had under the old ID.  

Jason, I think you and I talked about the Particle Pearls and polished resin in the many emails or in San Antonio.....can't remember.

Eric,

Don't you think it has that look?  Probably not the phasing.  I'll let you know when I get one.

Saw the Ogre Particle yesterday, and boy, can I tell you, the feel of the cover just screams "hook." Yep, folks, particles you can feel -- like snow tires.

Wondering, especially after talking with Jason, what a little polish on this baby would do!!  Want something for in between Blue Centaur and the Gladiator.  Possibly this or a similarly polished Frankie May!

Already got it Scott.  Love the ball.  Actually....shot 300 with it in league before, just never said anything.

Want something a little more controlled....that's all.

4000 ab made mine more controllable from 1500 polished OOB.

Most of us will need a finer finish than a 600 matte or whatever the OOB surface will be on the Ogre Particle unless rolling on heavier oil....if it's like the Granite OOB was/is.  But, I will try it OOB but playing with it to match up.

Britton says his is a smooth rolling one with less over-under that's pretty much how I'd define the B/G Centaur and Solid Gladiator's roll on the backend.

For the most part, I feel my Gladiator gets down the lane fine and finishes more than strong.  But I want something a little earlier, but more of an arc.

I might actually try another Gladiator with a different drill....not sure.  Same could be said with the Ogre Pearl.

Straight from Jason:
The Ogre Particle does use the coverstock on the Granite. There are very small changes, but the changes are mostly the pigments used to make the colors. This ball is what we are calling pewter and black. It is a grey/black combo.

  Had a polished Granite.  One of the best all around medium balls I ever used, period.  Not jumpy, not finicky, and not weak.

Try a lower grit on the Glad, like a 1000 grit Abralon or 1500 grit US scale on even a Rico drilling.

I don't want to bring the cover down too much.  Then I feel like like I'll be limited more as the balls going to start grabbing way too early.  

I guess I could try the cover change and a different drill as well.  Gotta talk with Jason.  He's seen me throw.  I've got video....not of me, but of the Glad Solid, Ogre Pearl, Violet Gargoyle and Slate Blue.  Just have to get them off the camera.
