RESURGENCE USHERS IN THE REBIRTH OF COLUMBIA 300

HOPKINSVILLE, Kent. – A power player on heavier volumes of oil, Resurgence is the rebirth of high performance balls from Columbia 300.
“We built the new Resurgence from the ground up and it’s sure to become the new standard in this industry for friction in oil,” shared Chad Murphy, brand manager. “This ball is strong on any heavier volume pattern.”
The Resurgence features a new veneer called ‘New Era,’ a reactive formula designed to create more friction in oil than any of Columbia 300’s most recent models. With a new symmetric core called ‘Resurgence’ and designed with a low RG of 2.46 and a medium differential of .043, this core system allows pro shop operators to use stronger or weaker drills to achieve differences in reactions for any given bowler. This combination of core and veneer will allow even the lowest rev players to dominate heavy oil with a strong drill. Resurgence comes in Black/Gold/Silver and is available in 12 – 16 pounds.
