What is Hammer going to discontinue this summer?  What is in store for either the summer or next season?  Just wondering.

I'd say the Anger will make this cut and be around for awhile still, same for the Cherry Vibe, but the Blue is probably gone though.

I would be shocked if the NM's is discontinued.  That wouldn't make much sense since there's only two balls in that line.

There might be too many Beat'ns already produced to discontinue, but I bet they discontinue the original.  I would be shocked if the original lasted another season.

I understand the Anger is staying.  The Toxic and Doom are gone, as are both No Mercys.

Well if both No Mercy's are going on the out then why would they bring out a pearl version unless they're not.if thats the case then I'm done with Ebonite.

That seems like a silly reason to be done with a brand.  They make their decisions based on economic viability of the product.

IMO, the NMs being discontinued makes alot of sense.  I believe they are too close in roll/reaction to the Widows that I cant see why you would need both.  I am in no way saying they are identical as they are not.  But, the Widows are much more popular and still avilable.  So, why the need for both?  I dont think Hammer has a "true" heavy oiler.  Maybe the Bite.  Something to compete with balls like the Resurgence could be an idea.
