Nova Pearl Reactive Hammer
*NEW* (3) 15+ Hammerthane 3-piece The pearlized companion to the Nova Hammer, the dual-density core of this ball has the Nova's high-flare potential, but goes longer. Also avaliable in January '96.

Ice Blue Pearl Reactive Razor (2) 15 Hammerthane 3-piece Features the pearlized Hammerthane coverstock with the Razor core for more length and back-end snap.

Norm Duke Reactive Hammer (3) 15 Hammerthane 2-piece A bulb-shaped symmetrical core lies at the heart of this polished dark blue Hammer. Norm Duke, the ball's namesake, appropriatley won the PBA Cleavland Open with this one.

Berry Reactive Razor (2) 15 Urethane 3-piece Faball's original reactive Razor features a high RG dual-density core with sanded cover stock finish. Norm Duke used it to win the PBA Oregon Open, and Chris Barnes won the Mini Eliminator with the ball.

Red Razor (2) 15 Urethane 3-piece A 320-grit cover is wrapped around a high RG dual-density Razor core to perform well on oil.

Purple Reactive Hammer (3) 14 Reactive 2-piece The polished reactive cover stock is paired with a bulb-shaped core of an even strong-driving hook.

Red Reactive Hammer (3) 15 Reactive 2-piece Faball's first high-flare potential ball with a polished reactive cover stock. LPBT win for Wendy Macpherson.

Navy Reactive Hammer (2) 14 Reactive 2-piece Faball's first reactive. Use dull on oily lanes or polish it for medium oil. Versatile cover retards tracking.

Burgandy Hammer (2) 10 Urethane 2-piece Urethane model features Hammer's famous high-density core; best non-reactive in Faball line for heavy oil.

Blue Hammer (2) 9 Urethane 2-piece This ball is best for heavier oil conditions, but can be polished up for drier lanes.

Purple Hammer (2) 9 Urethane 2-piece Designed to get through dry heads, has stronger back end reaction than Blue Hammer.

Black Hammer (2) 8 Urethane 2-piece The original Hammer, still effective all-around from dry to oily lanes. Polishes up well.

Red/Blue Pearl Hammer (2) 7 Urethane 2-piece First pearlized 2-piece urethanes go longer with good back-end reaction. Both are good short oil balls.

Pink Hammer (2) 3 Urethane 2-piece Original Hammer construction, cover stock make this one best for dry lane conditions.
