I am thinking of trying one of these bad boys out. After trying out
a new Ebonite ball for the first time since the V2's i was very impress.
I tried the Big Time Solid, the one Tommy Jones used this past season and
i got to say that ball is awesome. It goes through carry down so easily and
revs fast.

I have have thrown the new Big Rig Diesel and that ball rocks too. Also the Big EDeal is a monster hitting ball. I really believe Ebonite has down great things for these new Hammers. So i am really anxious now to try out a couple of the new hammers. I have my eye on the Hawg, Razor, and Big Rig.

Got Mike Wittington to drill up mine at a Demo day in Charlotte,NC . Took the ball outta the box and played on a 43' sport pattern. Played the 3rd arrow and ball made a nice quick arc into the pocket, the third game moved into the 4th arrow and was still in the hole. I am a tweener with med.high ball speed (17-20 mph) off the hand and med.revs. Never had to slow it down at all. Also played on a med. house shot and had to give the ball lots of room to roam. Ball is great for my game so far,as I was looking for an oil ball. Will see how it holds up and post later on it.

Back to the original question. The gp2 is way better on oil. In fact as far as hammers go the razor blade is a much better ball.The razor hooks a lot just slightly less than the hawg. But the razor does not jerk when it hits the dry,nor does it over skid the break point. The hawg seems too erratic on synthetic anvillanes; over skid on oil and oversnap on dry and doesnt like carry down.Maybe sanding can help this. But the Razor is a better ball even on oil right out of the box and is way cheaper. I have tested them side by side.Drilling the same.
