WHat was the difference between these two? Was there a difference in the shell hardness, or was it just the surface finish that was different?
I know the PINK HAMMER was a very hard urethane, but I was thinking the original NAIL was softer ( like the black HAMMER ), just with a polished finish.

The nail is awesome if you have a chance to get one dont hesitate.

If what my buddy in college at the time told me is true, the Nail and Pink Hammer were the same ball. Apparently the Nail had a problem originally where one ball cracked before the TV finals or soemthing and sales of the ball after that were horrendous. As a result they ditched the Nail name, recolored the coverstock and called it the Pink Hammer.
I may not be 100% accurate but that's what my buddy told me. His dad was a pro shop owner at the time (early 90's) and a regional PBA bowler so I tend to believe him.
