Psycho/Tantrum
« on: May 23, 2008, 03:33:39 PM »
Is it me or does the color schemes for the Raw Hammer Psycho and the Track Tantrum look almost the exact same?

I don't think so.  The Tantrum seems to have more red in it, the Psycho doesn't look like it has any red at all.  If anything, the Psycho looks almost identical to the old Hammer Hawg Wild.  Take a look:

You do realize that they can't really control the mixing of balls that have 2 or 3 colors in them. Almost every ball made will look either a lot or a little different from one another. Also, the exact shade of each color will look slightly different depending on the color and type of resin.

Since both are owned by Ebonite, it's highly unlikely that they'd intended that the balls, under different brand names, look identical.

Besides, are you a fashion designer or a bowler?

Hammer seems to like that color combo.  Hawg Wild, Tuff, and now Psycho.

It's not that.  I just thought I was seeing double, that's all.  The crap thing is now I don't know which one to get they're both so pretty.

Seems like the tantrum's color scheme looks more like the doom to me. More reddish than orange. jmo.

Believe it or not, the two balls aren't even really that close in color.  Once they hit the market, you'll see a big difference.

Nah, I'm a bowler.  As soon as I get my hands on some video recording equipment, I'll post a few videos and show what I can do.  Believe it or not, I'm terrible when it comes to fashion.
