Need suggestions...poll...kind of...
« on: March 06, 2008, 12:58:59 PM »
Here's my aresenal right now...

Bite- 4 3/4 X 45* pin up
NM 4" pin to PAP #1 layout
Doom- 4 1/2" pin to PAP pin down
Cherry Vibe- 4 1/2 pin to PAP pin up
Blue Vibe- 5 1/4 pin to axis pin up

So here's the question. What should I add? To be honest...no matter the Hammer ball that you suggest, it will probably overlap with something...that's no big deal. Really just want another ball. Suggestions? Drills? lmk.

Pretty much everything you have is for backend. Maybe an Anger.

Very good suggestion! A urethane ball should never be missed out - when things get tough (and dry-ish), this is a very good option to stay in control. Sadly, Hammer does not produce any urethane pieces anymore, and both Pure Hammers were more ball than one would ask for on the conditions a urethane ball would excel.

The Anger would give you a different look(earlier read) than the Bite or NM. You can also take the cover down to handle the heaviest volumes of oil.

Anger.

Mine has covered some true heavy oil. I've taken the surface down to 500 abralon, and it's perfect. You could take the surface up some too, and get a totally different look.

Matt....not sure why you got rid of your Toxic, but it was drilled right, it is a super ball, but either get another or an Anger, since you HAVE to have another fine ball from Hammer !

The Anger is a great ball. I really don't think all that many folks realize how good the Raw Line is, but, that's the way it goes.

Get an Anger, help the economy ! SPEND MONEY !  lol

Just don't let your Mom show you up !

LOL


Good Luck !

lol! she might the way she throws that thing. She had an action, and like it..but didn't realize the kind of power/hook/backend that she was missing! She's getting a doom now as well. I converted my mom to an official hammerhead!

Matt,

Go pin down with a Blue Vibe and a pin down Anger. That way you'll have both lower and upper gaps filled with some arcing equipment.
