Title: HammerHeads: best of all time?
Post by: BuddiesProShopcom - Tim on September 03, 2008, 04:59:07 PM
Pretty self explanatory...say what your favorite 2-piece Hammer ball of all time is.  

I'll start with some love for the Big Rig Diesel.  Super high diff + strong cover = FUN!!!!

WHat about yours?

Don't recall if it was a 2- piece or not,  but the Blue Hammer Eurethane
was one of my all time best. I owned several back in the day.

For me, it's the Hammer Blue Pearl.

Although there's no argument against those selecting Hammer 3D Offset, as I absolutely loved that ball as well.

Great ball. I'm on my 3rd one. Only problem is that they crack around the fingers every time.

You should check ebay. A lot of people are selling there solids for cheap on there. I guess maybe because they all want to get the latest equipment? I always wait for bowling balls to go down in price if I want to buy it.

Yes our lanes are drier so we see more of the new pearlized stuff :-)

Faball - Blue Hammer

Ebonite/Hammer - Switch Blade, or Sling Blade, IMO.

Diesel Particle and particle pearl, wish I had a nib one of each still.

Newer Hammer is good but so far nothing great, BW series is probably the best selling series out right now. Cell might take over that soon enough with the Pearl coming out soon.
