Hawg Zilla vs Black Widow
« on: December 22, 2006, 01:26:53 AM »
Me and my brother compete against each otha all the time in bowling. He has a black widow and I have a hawg zilla. I kept tellin him my zilla is better than the widow but he keeps sayin "No there the same or mine is even better". Can yall help me set the record straight and tell me what yall think is better majority rules my vote is on the zilla.

Hawg Zilla more agressive ball in oil conditions than the BW.

Two completely different balls.

Sometimes lane conditions mask the difference between balls.  I can bowl on a med oil pattern with clean back end and the DOOM will hook just as much as my PAIN if not more.  Now put me on heavier oil and the DOOM will slide while the PAIN hooks a lot.

The BW is more of a skid/back end ball.  It still reads the mids good but not well as the Zilla.  However the back end move on the BW should be more than the Zilla.  Two completely different types of reactions.

Which one is better?  That depends on the bowler and conditions.

I have a BW but not the Hawg Zilla.  So this is kind of unfair of me to choose.  I have heard some really good things about the Zilla though.  I'm willing to bet the Zilla is easier to control.

I don't know it's a tough call.

I have 2 BW's and a HZ. If I had to chose one over the other I'd take the HZ simply because it's more versatile than the BW's.

Just ordered my BW, will get a Hawg very soon, my No Mercy is really nice when there's a little oil.
