I have been averaging 240+ for a while with the "new" Night Hawks in league/tournaments. Such a great ball....

Tenpin,

How will you drill the NightHawk with the short (0.5 to 1 inch) pin?  Have fun with your new toys!

you could lay it out rico? IDK the 4 oz top isint the most virsital by layout standards... but i would love to see the way they roll on the tougher shots today

This is how I will drill the 0.5-1 pin ball.  I love this drilling and actually requested a short pin.

I already have a Titan drilled Rico so I won't drill this one Rico.

I also like higher topweights as a get better reactions out of them it seems to me.  I am planning if everything goes as planned and I get a babysitter to drill them on Friday.  I also have 2 extra Radars and a Radar Lock I am thinking about drilling also.

With the Titan it Revs up really early then arcs very nicely to the pocket.  It does not burn up it has worked very well for me on a fresh med oil shot.  When I first put that pattern on that ball I did not think I was going to like it but I was very wrong.  I have shot alot of big numbers with that layout.

Melvin, Clint is right I do get early shots at new stuff although there is a ebay auction going on right now for a New Night Hawk if you would like to try to get one.  It is not my auction.  I have just seen it from other posts on the web.  Here is the auction number and it has around 12 hrs left and the ball is only at 50.00.  Ebay auction number 190042540735

If it was the Menace, I would say yes....granted it was just particle vs the original NH which is resin, but I won my first tourney with the Menace.....

Clint which of the nighthawk coming out ? Or they going to come out with all of them.I want to get my hands on the menace,nighthawk torque and I forgot the green one?

Melvin don't look for them to make any of the others just yet.  I have only hear of the Nighthawk being a remake then they want to turn there focus back on the Radar line on so on.  So I don't look for them to remake the others for now.

This reply is correct. They only made this ball to fill in the countless requests of many bowlers and made only this one because it was one of the most successful/profitable ball in production. They are working on the next Radar right now with a matte finish and particle cover (most likely the One7-plus cover). I will keep you guys posted!

Night Hawk!!!  I know every one is anxious about this ball and I must say it does live up to its expectations.  What a great piece of equipment.  Just like the original, very clean through the fronts with a lot of continuation in the back.  I left mine out of the box to compliment the rest of my arsenal, but feel free to tune the cover to your liking and have fun striking.  This ball will fit nicely between the Radar and the Venom.  I will post more reviews as I get a chance to throw them on more conditions, but in the mean time e-mail me if you have any questions.
