- Ivory Blue / Pink / Teal Pearl

First Impressions
The ProBowl Ivory Pearl was released in August 2017 as part of the Ivory series, which stands out within the ProBowl lineup for its excellent value for money. Its appearance is defined by an elegant, cream-white pearl look, finished with a high-gloss polished factory finish. Technically, this model is a classic polyester ball designed specifically for extremely low friction. Inside works a traditional pancake core that provides smooth, quiet ball motion and maximum directional stability. With an RG of approximately 2.69 and a minimal differential of about 0.006, the technical profile is consistently geared toward a straight path with no appreciable movement of its own. The cover is optimized to carry the energy of the delivery down the full length of the lane without any loss of traction.
Comparison Compared directly to performance balls like the Storm Phaze II, the ProBowl Ivory Pearl shows a completely opposite character, since it displays no reaction to friction whatsoever and therefore reaches the pocket purely through the angle of the delivery. It is best compared to industry standards such as the Columbia 300 White Dot or the Brunswick T-Zone. While the Ebonite Maxim shows similar skid characteristics, the ProBowl Ivory Pearl offers an even smoother surface thanks to its special pearl shell, one that barely tends to grab even on dry boards. Unlike urethane models such as the Hammer Purple Pearl Urethane, which create a controlled arc in the backend, this ball stays absolutely true to its line and minimizes the risk of unpredictable reactions when it contacts dry spots at the end of the oil pattern.
On the Lanes The practical use of the ProBowl Ivory Pearl falls primarily into two scenarios: precise spare shooting for advanced players and a first ball for beginners. It should deliver reliable performance when shooting at corner pins, since it bridges the heads and the midlane without any appreciable interaction with the oil film. If you have a high rev rate, it serves as an important tool for keeping control of your direction during difficult transition conditions. The defining performance trait of this ball is predictability, as it nearly neutralizes outside influences from the lane pattern. It also offers solid carry when it hits the pins directly, which makes it a steady choice for daily practice and league play whenever maximum reduction of hook potential is what you want.
