A Little Secret about the DOOM
« on: February 04, 2006, 10:13:10 AM »
Are you all reay for this?
This info was leaked out from Ebonite along with other info, and a Hammer Rep told my boss that the Doom Raw Hammer is actually using the Coverstock that is on The One. The Doom has the GB10.7 coverstock. It was secretly used on the balls and no one was told about it until the information leaked out. Everyone who has bought this ball is lucky.

Almost all companies that own two brands do this, like take Track's goo and Columbia's M80 and AMF's Mach 1 its all the same! Just different cores.

The Doom is pearlized and The One is solid. So, we're talking a pearlized version of GB 10.7? That's strange. I owned both balls at the same time and they didn't really react very much alike. If your info is correct, I guess it goes to show how much difference cores make.

I guess they should have called it "The Doomed ONE".

Is that true?  The Doom is flat out awesome.  So the ONE must be a great ball as well.  I have another Doom ordered.  I should have it on WED.

Keep looking... I'm sure there's a 300 in one of those balls you keep buying!!


Do you think so?  I wouldn't put it past these company's.  If it's correct then that is cool.  I love the Doom and now if thats true I might match up real well with the ONE.

FYI, the new Juiced Reactive is the coverstock on the Road Hawg not Hawg Wild, and what u said makes sence even though u didnt mean for it to. The Road Hawg and The One share the same coverstock, so that means that the Doom, Road Hawg, and One all share coverstocks, only the Doom is a pearlised version i think.

if my information about the coverstocks on the Doom and One being the same...then yes id be saying that the road hawg uses same cover as Doom.

THe idea isnt so far fetched. Think about it. The One, Road Hawg, and Doom are all skid/flip ball sin nature. It isnt so far fetched if they were all to share teh came cover.

as for dulling the cover...the road hawg is solid and the doom is pearl. Thats the only difference but i believe that in theory it is the same
