Looking for a good Hammer ball for my wife (185 ave.) to use when the lanes are or get a little toasty. Any suggestions? Thank you!

VIBE

The best ball made by Hammer for "toasty".

For dry, I'll second Jason's suggestion....Vibe.

Just another thought, never be afraid to go with a more aggressive ball and move more towards the middle and chase the oil. But for dry, you may also look an older black pure hammer with some polish with a weak drill.

no hand-  I appears he is looking for a ball for his wife.   Now, I don't mean to stereotype, but MOST women want to play in the area of 2nd arrow.   Therefore, it appears that he wants a ball to allow her to do that.  

Also-  I have tried both PURE's and neither compare to the VIBE for dry.  Both of my pures were gripline drills with the pin at 5.5" from PAP.   Both read the dry to early.  

Again, I think the VIBE is the way to go here.

To second windup's choice, I have a teammate that rolls a Vibe and it's an excellent ball for drier conditions. He's correct that the Pure Hammers will read too early. I use a Sling Blade with the pin about 1.5" from my PAP and the blanace hole punched throw the CG. The Sling Blade was little stronger than advertised. The Vibe is a great ball.
