With the newest equipment, you're likely looking that the Raw Hammer Anger. The HawgZilla is still available, but discontinued as of about now. Anything else really plays into a more skid/snap look.

I second the zilla, great ball with a big arc. and great power, drill it medium strength because it is a really strong ball, that needs oil to use.

I thought my Hammers hit hard, until I whipped a LM/L ball into the pocket. WOW!

-Big Bang
-Buzz
-Absolute Power
-Black Widow
-Hawgzilla
-Spare Tire

The Raw Hammer Pain would be a perfect ball for you.  The problem is this ball has been discontinued but may still be available(ebay, pro shops ect...).  I think the new Raw Hammer Anger maybe a good choice because it's supposed to be similar to the PAIN (arc type of reaction).  It's just hard to really comment on a ball that has not been seen on the lanes.

No Mercy with #2 drill. Has a hard but controllable arcing reaction. Works great on  medium to heavier conditions and flat patterns. Not a crazy reaction like the Black Widow but still very rolly and reacts like

Hammers Hawg Zilla is a great ball for what your looking for. Big hard arc to the pocket and crushes the pins on contact.
