The ball is actually just the Red Hammer...the urethane one...I knew it might be but I was kinda hoping that the ebay listing just didn't take A pic of the big r on the cover...But I would have bought the ball anyways because it was a "blem" with a 7-8- inch pin. I figured if it was the reactive one I could drill it for extreme length which will help on the drier shot I experienced the first night of league night--and if the urethane one, then I could drill it with the pin waaay outside of my ring finger to create a little bit of reaction down the lane , and then just adjust the cover to get the ideal length and overall movement for me.
I knew that hammer came late to the reactive party, but I didn't realize that by 1994 which is the date this ball was made, that hammer was still putting out the urethanes also. I know back then every companies balls were low grit on the covers compared to the balls of today, but does anyone have a close approximation to what grit the red hammer cover is at just so I know where I am starting at before I put in on the spinner(once I recover better from my gallbladder surgery of course)?
