Likes: Hammer has released a new addition to the Vibe lineup with the new Arctic Vibe. This time they have gone with a shiny Hybrid ball which has the HK22 added to the CT- Max Hybrid too create a very strong piece in the Mid Performance category. This should not eliminate previous Vibes. This ball picks up much sooner in the mid lane and for me has more overall lane coverage. It goes through the pins pretty nice also. The White with swirled in Purple look pretty cool too. Great value being called "mid performance."

Likes:As tradition continues, the Vibe line provides amazing performance at an attractive price.  The coloration of th Arctic Vibe with its white and purple mix catches the eye from every direction.  Combine the look and the performance of this beauty and it does not disappoint.  I am pleased with how easy it is to get down the lane and even more pleased with its move off of the friction.  Scuff the cover a bit to keep it in front of you or shine it up a bit and watch the backend really come alive.  Don't miss out on this piece.

Hammer Arctic Vibe

Unbelievable Price Point….Top Shelf Performance!  The New Hammer Arctic Vibe

The Hammer Vibe line has to be one of the most underrated ball lines on the market.  The Ocean Vibe is a ball that just surprised any bowler who threw the ball.  Well, Hammer has done it again by releasing the new Hammer Arctic Vibe, and yes…IT’S A HYBRID!!!  The Arctic Vibe has the new HK22 CT Reactive Max Hybrid coverstock giving the ball incredible ball movement and hitting power through the pins.  Like previous balls in the Vibe line, this ball is predictable, clean and provides any bowler consistency on various lane conditions.  The Arctic Vibe works very well on medium lane conditions, but many bowlers have used it on heavy oil.  The solid hybrid coverstock allows any bowler to see mid-lane roll and dynamic hitting power off the spot.  This ball is just incredible!  Bowlers at all levels will definitely see the ball shape and allow for any adjustments necessary to get the ball to the pocket.  This is my second ball in the Vibe line I have thrown, and I can definitely say that there will always be a Vibe line bowling ball in my arsenal at all times.  I am still really impressed on how clean and predictable this ball really is.  I strongly recommend this ball to bowlers at all levels.  You will not be disappointed on this ball’s performance.
