Manufacturer's Intent: I didn't come back because I had to. I came back because nobody else could quite do the job like me. The RB91 Hybrid cover I'm wearing now is nano-based, finished with Power Edge, and just as hungry for oil as my solid predecessor…but I've got a little more length this time. And when I get to the backend, I don't skid, I don't overreact. I drive straight through the pocket. I'm not a replacement. I'm a return. The same Blast A.I. Core you already know: lowest RG, highest differential in the line. It powers through the mid-lane and saves enough energy for a decisive finish downlane.

900 Global is making a limited number of ball releases these days due to Storm's market strategy, but they still have some great pieces that you can take advantage of. Vengeance Returns is one of those, bringing a low rg symmetric core shape with a polished cover to the market. There are actually a limited number of really good polished symmetric balls in the marketplace right now. We believe Vengeance Returns is one of those hidden gems on our wall.

900 Global's Vengeance Returns starts with a fast revving low rg core that packs a lot of flare potential (.056"). This creates a product that wants to get into a roll phaze quickly in the mid-lane. Drilled with the 4" pin pictured above, the Vengeance Returns had at least 5" of track flare. The Power Edge polished cover is part of the pairing that leads to great ball reaction as well. I did try the Returns with a sanded/duller surface at one point, but didn't find as much use for it in that preparation. The polished cover is part of what keeps this ball clearing the front and powering off of the backend. We recommend leaving it shiny for nearly every lane condition.

Vengeance Returns is one of the stronger polished symmetric balls on the wall right now. The nano-based cover will land the Vengeance Returns as an earlier and stronger rolling ball than a Phaze II Pearl. But the Power Edge polish on this ball will get much farther down the lane than any of the sanded SPI balls, such as the Bionic or Phaze II.

Vengeance Returns is available now at TBG, and in stock in 12-15# weights!
