Hammer Nail
« on: June 29, 2012, 01:22:11 PM »
Hello All

Wanted to post a review on the Hammer Nail.  This ball allows me to take the pattern out of play to large degree.  It is clean through the fronts allowing me to play the reaction on the back ends.  It has a smooth predictable reaction throughout the lane. 

On the fresh, I am playing a straighter line down the lane, then able to move left as the front transistions while keeping my break point the same.  Moves are not as big as they would be with more aggressive equipment.

A great ball to go to when the pattern is or starts to get under/over.  Being just a little bigger than the Vibe, it is a great compliment to it.  Also a really good choice for the big wet/dry patterns.

My Info:
PAP: 5 3/8" X 3/8" up
Rev Rate: 350
Ball Speed: 17

Lane Pattern:
40' House Shot
39' USBC Nationals

Drill Pattern:
