I got a hammer power diesel from a buddy in my bowling league and it's been up and down with me and this ball. I got a 209 the first game i used it in my bowling league and the highest i got since then is a 190. Do you think it's me or it's better to get another ball that's made for me? I can't find a way to throw a hook on this ball and i would like to know.

I disagree with Ten Pin....I loved this ball, when I was able to find the proper cover prep.

For me, about 2000-4000 matte and this ball was SUPER smooth, but the Diesel core is a BEAST, so it was a beautiful.  I still throw this ball in fact.  

I know everyone has their opinions, I just suggest trying to tweak the cover on this particular ball before you bail out on it just yet.

Good Luck!

if the cover and layout is done correctly...ball revs up real easy and has a strong yet controllable backend, exactly what most bowlers look for. Shot 299 and 803 with it earlier this year.

The core in the Diesel line is very similar throughout.  Personally, I love the roll the diesel line gives me.  I still have a Big Rig too.
