Columbia has combined the extremely successful Messenger Titanium core with their highly aggressive multi-color TEC (Texture Energy Control) coverstock. The Titanium nugget in the center produces more hitting power; the unique design of the core creates a medium-low Rg (2.547) and medium-high differential RG (0.042) for 4-6 inches of flare; and the modified TEC shell containing suspended glass particles adds hook. When you put them all together the Messenger TEC obtains an early arcing break point even in oil. The Messenger TEC is blue/red/yellow multi-color with gold engraving.
