Wow, I didnt think the technology of this ball would cause so much speculation and skepticism. First off, it has always been warned that they would come out with a ball that went against current drilling traditions. That ball is the No Mercy. As we all know, technology advances every day and nothing is ever written in stone whether it be computers, or bowling balls.
The ad says that the label drill is the strongest. So what if it has a MB, every ball has one despite how little or immesurable it is, they have one. Maybe Hammer figured out a way to take a negatively placed MB, and use it for the better. It sure beats having to drill out a weight hole which lowers the value of your ball should you try to sell it.
Its just like when Brunswick proved that the CG makes little difference on the ball, it went against everything that people knew and still to this day it does, but lots of people are better off with that knowledge.
Its an asymmetrical core. Just wait until people throw it. If it doesnt work out like advertised, then point fingers at Hammer and their R&D team. You never know, it may turn out to be the ball of your dreams.Overall, has Hammer failed you yet?
