For those that are going to ask, which I know it will be, Jason said the polish done because it's a hard urethane and it's meant to go straight!!
And I know that people will also ask....yes....the surface can be altered to get a little hook out of it. Those with hand in the ball will get something out of it without a doubt!!

Just to let you know, USBC Equipment shows the Hammer Chalk as being approved Feb 2009 whereas the Ogre Urethane was approved Nov 2008. So......it looks like Chalk really resembles the Ogre Urethane!!

Was going through some mails from the past and came across yours! I take it you guys didn't make it out to Forum this year for the Nationals?? There was another team from South Carolina that won it.
Didn't see you though.

You can find the general information on the release here..
http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/4624/customerogreurethaneint.jpg
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,
http://www.visionarybowling.com/ball_glowingamulet.html
was considered to be hard. Its hardness was 78 - 81 on the scale.
