## Description

MODERN PERFORMANCE LINE MRP – $139.95  The Modern Performance Line series delivers exceptional results, leveraging advanced symmetrical core technology to set a new standard in performance. Building on the success of the SWAG Fusion line, which was widely praised for its unique ball reaction and versatility, the new Assassin introduces a lower RG (2.52) and higher differential core (.048) for increased downlane motion compared to the Fusion models. Paired with the Dagger Pearl base and enhanced by our AP26 additive, this design creates a distinctly different ball reaction, improving adaptability on higher-friction lane surfaces. This makes it an outstanding choice for drier patterns and transitional conditions when more core is needed.  DESIGN INTENT:  Speed > Revs– Great for speed dominant bowlers on medium-dry to medium oil lanes or those high-friction surfaces. It's designed to give more backend and continuation than the Fusion models, and the Dagger AP26 Pearl cover gives it a good response when it hits the friction, making it awesome for lanes that demand a bit more hook downlane. It's super reliable and gives you that great downlane action when you need it.  Balanced Speed & Revs – The Assassin Pearl serves as an ideal transition benchmark ball for balanced bowlers who prioritize power and control. With the increasing usage of high-volume lane oil, the demand for bowling balls that offer enhanced strength and control has steadily grown. Featuring the upgraded Dagger AP26 pearl coverstock, the Assassin Pearl provides improved downlane performance and consistent motion. This combination enables balanced bowlers to confidently adapt to a diverse array of lane conditions with ease and precision.  Rev > Speed – The Assassin Pearl is a great pick for rev-dominant bowlers looking for something dependable on those long or high-volume oil patterns when you need some serious backend. Its Dagger AP26 pearl shell gives you extra backend, making it your go-to ball for handling those tough oil transitions with confidence.
