Just letting everyone know that the official release date on the Urethane Ogre is June 3rd.  The photo posted that says "ad" is a photo of the ball using a better camera, and does look pretty much exactly like the ball.  It is a creamy gray base color with blue and black swirls.

You can find the general information on the release here..

Keep in mind, that this is a pretty hard urethane, and is designed not to hook a whole lot.  Those who get this ball and expect it to hook alot will be disappointed.  It is strictly made for really dry lanes, and for those bowlers who have a problem with modern reactives hooking way too much.

Now now Scott.....I think it would have been much earlier.....but that's just a very well educated guess.

Just trying to figure out if any of the regulars have tried out this ball yet.  Also if you have either the SS or the blue slate, how does it compare?

The Ogre SS is a true medium oil, skid/flip pearl resin ball. It does not even belong in this conversation!!

Jason has already implied it, the OU, will go much straighter than the SBG, which has a much stronger core, and a pearl urethane cover. My Blue/Green Centaur hooks less than my SBGs.

If the Ogre Urethane is anything like the hard urethane Glowing Yellow Amulet (I used one briefly), it will go very straight. Jason likened it to a Pink Hammer, a killer dry lanes ball due to its carrying power.

FYI The Glowing Amulet,

was considered to be hard. Its hardness was 78 - 81 on the scale.
