Do you see a lot of people going all Hammer?
« on: July 14, 2006, 12:58:17 AM »
It just seems they are really on top of their game right now, and I'm considering going to an all Hammer lineup.  Heck, my first ball was a Burgundy (which I still have and have been considering redrilling for light) and my first HOOK ball (the burgundy was conventional) was a Sling Blade.  Heck, if it were 15 I might STILL be using that ball!  But after having the Doom for awhile, I'm really excited about the whole line.  If I put the Doom in the middle, what would be a good choice to go above and below it for a 3 ball arsenal?  I was thinking a purple Vibe and maybe a Pain.

Is that why P.A. left?  
Joking.. we all know it basically has nothing to do with the equipment and everything to do with the money...

nah - track is the top notch technologized equipment right now.. they are pretty hard to beat knowing that their cores and coverstocks are the best, as well as the cores.

Cant go wrong with a Machine, pretty popular ball right now.

That's your opinion.

They signed because of money. Period.

I knew it was only a matter of time before one of the Track guys came out.    If they're so superior, why did they have to recently change leadership?  j/k

No no no no you don't understand, when they sign with *my* company, it's because of the equipment, but when they sign with *another* company, it's because of the money.

Exactly.  This is one of the fundamental laws of bowling.

Machine 101, Track has made some great balls.  They have also had some real duds.  Of course this is my opinion.  I used to only throw Track equipment.  Now I have Hammer right now.

I wont just throw 1 company's equipment anymore.  I will just go with what I like from any company.

On a side note Track does not have a ball that can compare to the Doom.  At least not from the balls I have tried in that catergory.  Reactive pearl.

When it comes to the pro's with the contracts it's all about the money and has nothing to do with the equipment.
