I always regretted selling my Charcoal Ex (it was 14 pounds) and was lucky enough to find a 15# NIB late this Summer. I've only thrown it twice in practice (I've got waaaay too much equipment) and tonight took it out again. It's such a great hard hitting ball that screams "control" as it goes down the lane. It revs up early but still has a bit of a pop in the back end for great carry.

I'm just wondering why Visionary discontinued the Charcoal Ex and the G-3 (one of the best balls ever produced in my opinion) but continued on with the Gargoyle line?
