Title: How would this look for a 4 ball lineup?
Post by: gunbunn19g on July 12, 2010, 08:44:06 AM

I have been tinkering around with other companies the last few years but I feel it's time to go back to my roots with Hammer. How would a 4 ball lineup look with a Plague, Trap, my original BW (I will never get rid of this ball!) and my Rayzr. I really like the way the Plague and Trap look so far anyone thrown them yet?

You better have some serious oil to need a Trap a Plague and BW, I would replace one of those with a Vibe or Backlash.

just so you know the plague is the "black widow solid replacement". Probably hooks more but basically the same reaction overall.

If it was me I would get a vibe like the midnight, a plague if you want a newer "widow", trap if you want a that hooks in the oil but still goes pretty long and kicks in the backend.

black widow using the new system is a 20 overall hook

the plague a 21 but thats because it comes 2000 OOB.

So if I still get enough out of my BW with putting it in the oven you guys think it would be better to add teh trap and a weeker ball between that and the rayzr?  And if I were to not get rid of but replace the BW the Plaue would be a good fit?  I didn't realize that the Plague would be that similar to the BW other than surface.

Hey gun you do have a big gap between the BW and Rayzr. A midnight vibe or backlash is needed. My arsenal is going to be similar to your. My BW solid is fairly new and its my benchmark ball for me. So a Plague, Trap, BW, Vibe/Bl, and Rayzr makes sense to me. Just depends on layouts and surface changes you make to each ball.
