Cool... I figured it was, but I wasn't sure. On the hammer website it just says GTR lll. Doesn't say pearl or solid. I didn't even think about looking at the ball review description. So it's just the opposite concept of the Taboo blue and silver (pearl cover no polish). Should definitely give you the length of a polished pearl, with a more smooth controllable motion on the backend. That intrigues me, because it will help with over/under that you see with most polished pearl balls.

Look at the video on the Hammer web site.
It doesn't strike me as "smooth and controllable". I think it was designed to be anything but smooth.

For me, the Jet Black is very clean through the fronts with a angular movement in the backends. I love both balls and them drilled similar, so I see that the Taboo is about 3-4 boards stronger overall. The Epidemic is angular too, but a little touchy when it hits the friction due to the pearl cover.
I hope this helps ya.
