Does Hammer make anything but the Widow and NO MERCY?
« on: November 02, 2006, 07:20:01 AM »
Holy wow people that would be the impression I am getting.  Where on earth are you finding oil enough for these balls?  I am struggling to find a house with oil enough for a VIBE much less these things. What gives?

LOL yeah! Talk about an oil monster.

My Black Widow is NOT an oil ball my any means. The thing comes 4000 grit OOB for God's sake. It's a great medium oil piece and it has versatility, but it is in no way an oiler... Read up bro.

Well if you can't find a league with enough oil than a vibe then I would look else where.  I'm being dead serious!

I do see a lot of talk about those two balls.  There new releases and a lot of bowlers really like them.  However Hammer has some great equipment besides those two balls.

I have a Pain and Doom.  These are symmetrical balls that are in the mid priced catergory.  I have both of them.  If you look back at some older posts you will find a lot of info about these two balls.

The Pain is the best reactive solid I have ever thrown.  It is very consistent on difficult lane patterns.  It carry's very well.  It doesn't react too hard off the dry.  It does loose some hit when the lanes dry out.  That is a good warning sign to tell you it's time to grab the Doom.

The Doom is by far the best reactive pearl ball I have ever owned.  It is very controllable for a pearl.  Plus it's hit and carry are second to none!

I would put these 2 Hammer balls up against any others made.  There that good!  There so good that I plan on buying a lot of them to keep in storage for later use before there discontinued.

The entire HAMMER line is very, very good.  

A ball that is completely overshadowed is the ROAD HAWG.  That ball is very good.  

The Raw Hammer series is incredible.    

And, for low end balls that really hit, I don't think there are any better than the 2 VIBES.  

You need to find a place with more oil, so you can experience these great offerings.

I should update the profile I guess, I got rid of the Weapon a while back b/c I never got to throw it even with it shined to glass with control it.  I am serious about never finding oil around here though.  I would LOVE to have the Pain in my bag, but there is no real point in it for me right now.  I still have a xxxtreme that never sees the light of day, when i did throw them side by side with similar drills they covered the same boards, a much nicer/controlled shot with the pain really made me want it.  Its tough though b/c my Vapor zone is my go to ball b/c it rolls so evenly.  Its too much ball on almost every shot, but I have been making it work since I realized that it was the only thing not jumping off the lanes.  I'm jealous of you guys with places to even throw good solid reactives.
