Anyone have this ball? How do you like it? What lane condition is it good on? Hows the reaction? Would you recommend people to purchase? Just curios

Strong. It's a great heavy oil ball, and really gets through the oil. One of the strongest I've thrown, even in it's 4000 OOB finish. Mine's drilled 3 3/8" stacked leverage, and it's a real hook machine.

Exactly what Fatboy said. Although, my Sauce is drilled 3 1/2" to my PAP. I can only throw it MAYBE one game in league, with its' OOB 4000 grit surface. Amazing ball when the condition calls for it!

i used mine for the first time on monday night.
drilled it 70* x 4 1/2 x 25*, w/pin under. left it oob.
typical house pattern on guardian. i was able to play the track area, as well as go in and swing the lane. the ball would come back from anywhere. the only problem i had was my carry wasn't the greatest. operator error i am sure. lol!!
will try it on synthetics this weekend and see how it rolls, before i make any surface adjustments on it.
the ball clears the heads well and makes a nice solid motion off the spot. not really flippy, but strong. i think a lot of different types of players would like this ball. i have seen guys who twist it more than i do (which is not hard), and those who are a little less than me, and they love their reaction as well. overall, another solid ball from Hammer!!

Surface is at 4k plus rough buff. It has given me a little added length and the drilling is very smooth. Still covers more boards than I expected it to but I still use it all night. I have seen it used on all sorts of medium to heavy and I have used it on some extreme heavy and it still had a very good reaction. It handles surface adjustments well.
