well i have to say i made a good choice putting holes in this one! holy crap this ball hits, its absolutely what i expected after reading the reviews, and thats the best from hammer and possibly every other company in a long time. we got 2 yesterday, and the owner drilled one up as soon as it came in, to use it for that night. well the other was sitting on the ball talker for like 3 whole hours so i thought i might as well drill it up, seeing as i dont want it to get dusty hehe. so i asked him how i should lay it out and he marked this one up and left, so i drilled it up later myself(only like my 3rd ball ive drilled, but i got it perfect) it got down the lane a little more than i wanted it to so i hit it with 500 to make sure it didint do that ever again, and that did the trick. its unbelivable! its very smooth but SOOOOO powerful and throws pins like crazy, i started playing the track but had to move out after about a game and was playing feet 35 to 4-5 at the break for a great look that lasted for a while, shot 259 the first game then 247 with a 236 to finish out the first set, and im very impressed. wow i cant get over it, the only other hammer i have had was a slingblade and that was my first ball ever aswell... but man i think i have a new favorite for sure. i just cant belive the ammount of angles i could play and the fact that it didint roll out off of the dry. its deffinatly alot stronger than i thought it would have been tho, but i guess thats ok, on the right shot im positave it will be unbeatable. it drives threw the pins way to hard imo tho, its good all night untill you start leaving 8 pins, holy hell, 8pins 8 pins 8pins. you can ajust out of them but they come out of nowhere, most i never saw coming and was alittle shocked to see them to be honest, but hey, ill take an 8pin over a 7-9 or 5=10 any day.

yea i wanted it to be my heavy oiler, so i think it should be good, but its still forcing me to get way to the right and swing the piss out of it, witch isint the most consistant thing in the world, i am considering taking it up to 1000, but we will see where its at after a few more games. but i cant belive it dosent roll out either, i mean i dont have the highest revrate in the world yet it just dosent quit, amazing...

oh and if i ever find that memorycard for my camera so i can take more than 1 min of video i might be able to get some shots recorded and maby a comparison to some of my other stuff like my TSA and UI...
