Likes: The Black Widow Mania is going to be a HOT seller in the bowling world for 2025!!  I find it to be very easy to get through the front and very responsive in the back.  So much versatility and control.  The color of this new piece catches the eye immediately.  Best used on medium to heavy oil patterns.  Don't sleep on this gem!!

Dislikes:none

First Hammer Black Widow I have Ever thrown…..and WOW!!!

Out of all of the balls I have been blessed to throw as an ambassador for Brunswick, one line of balls I have never thrown….and that line was the Black Widow line.  I wasn’t that I didn’t like them, I just never tried one because each time they came out, they just didn’t fit in my arsenal.  Now, I am SO glad I took the leap and drilled up the new Hammer Black Widow Mania!  Having never thrown a Black Widow, I wanted to see what made this ball so different.  The HK22-Cohesion Pearl coverstock which is the same cover on the Hammer Effect which I ABSOLUTELY, so I wanted to put a 40x5x75 layout in this ball to maximize its full ball motion and give the ball continuous and predictable ball motion on any lane condition…AND IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!!    The Black Widow Mania simply an INCREDIBLE bowling ball!  The ball control and predictability support all the reviews and hype I have heard for years about the Black Widow line for years.  This ball is just unreal.  Like the Hammer Effect and if I can be so bold….I believe we have the 2025 Ball of the Year in the Hammer Black Widow Mania!!!
