Title: Diesel Torque
Post by: BallReviews-scodaddy21 on August 14, 2018, 11:25:00 AM
The Hammer Diesel is back and with more torque! The Hammer Diesel Torque bowling ball has the same popular Diesel core as the original but this time it is wrapped in Hammer's Juiced Solid coverstock. This core and cover combo offer a strong mid-lane reaction with continuous backend on medium to heavy oil conditions. This bowling ball is Carbon Fiber Infused! Carbon fiber is one of the toughest materials on earth. Hammer decided to add this material to the inner core of this ball for added strength and durability allowing them to offer an incredible 3 year warranty.

COMMENTS

Likes: What a great compliment to the original Diesel.  The Torque is a bit cleaner through the fronts and more angle in the back end than the original.  For me it was also more controllable without giving up a smooth yet predictable and strong back-end reaction. You will use this on house league shots and have thew world with it.

Dislikes:I love this next release in the Diesel line. I find the Diesel Torque to be 5 boards stronger overall compared to the Diesel. I prefer to use the Torque on medium and heavy oil patterns because I don't need to push it right and can play straighter while saving up it's energy for maximum pin carry. This ball is between the Rip'd Solid and the Web for performance on longer patterns.
