This Rebel is ready to yell! The Hammer Rebel Yell features the Rebel core covered with the Juiced Pearl coverstock and is finished out of the box with a 500 then 2000 grit Abralon pad and then polished with Powerhouse Factory Finish Polish. This combination produces a lot of downlane angle when up against medium oil conditions giving you length with a strong backend.

Likes: This ball hits hard! I was a big fan of the Rebel and Rebel Solid, so was really excited to have this piece in my bag. It is very continuous, and although it doesn't appear to 'flip' or make a big direction change, it packs a punch. I have been using this in my Blue pattern league, and it's really predictable and allows me to score well on moderately challenging conditions.

Dislikes: only one - the box finish was a little too shiny for me (I am a mid to low rev player). Once i scuffed the surface, the ball was excellent.

For me, the new RebeL YELL definitely is a stronger version of the original Rebel that was released last year. With the stronger pearl coverstock, the Yell can handle the medium lane patterns much better than the original. For me, the original was a little too smooth to my liking for a pearl ball. The new Yell offers a much sharper motion down the lane and is the perfect ball for the transitions and when the lanes are a little drier in the end of the league / tournament games.  The symmetrical weight block helps revs up in the midlanes, which then provides a controllable skid/flip ball motion. This is definitely gonna be in my bag for future tournaments for sure! I have had a few different styles of bowlers throw this ball and all 3 have been impressed with the ball motion that they saw.

This ball comes with Hammer’s 3 year warrantee which provides the BEST value for your $$$!

I think the new RebeL YELL will be a great ball for the typical medium lane patterns that offers a clean motion through the fronts with a sharper ball motion off the spot down the lane.

A very versatile pearlized ball… You will be impressed!

You make a good point. The "over-waxed" shelf appeal can effect the performance on just about any ball. I remove the wax after most new purchases.
