YEA HAMMER DOES SUCK!!!!...wait no they dont. Hammer, is in my opinion, they best company for skid/flip on the market right now! Just about every hammer ball I've seen thrown is a beast. Again, its not the ball, its the bowler. (unless you get some type of defective ball ) And Sundevil300, you'll learn quickly that if you want to be a serious poster on this board, keep your dumb comments to yourself. I learned this the hard way, trust me. And another thing, you are very undisciplined, or at least you come off that way, for a soldier of the armed forces. What armed forces are you in, exactly? (just curious)

i have bowled a few pba regionals,  but its hard cause i am in the military.  hammer still sucks



For someone who aspires to be a professional and someone who should be disciplined you don't act in either fashion.  Maybe you don't know how to bowl? Or maybe your ball driller can't layout a ball?

Maybe YOU just plain SUCK!!

Anytime, I'll bring my tool chest full of Hammers and I'll show you what a ball reaction and high scores look like.

Hello

I just wanted to add my two cents into this rather ignorant comment.  I agree completely with the statements that the ball fits the bowlers style but also that each ball has a good match to various lane conditions.

I have been a hammer man for a very long time (Burgandy hammer, Spike , Spike HPT, Vicious Particle, and Vicious Strike)  I just recently purchased the Big Block Diesel and believe me this is the best hammer ball on the market and could be the ball of the year amongst all manufacturers.

With this said, I did have some problems with Hammer recently.  The Vicous Particle and Vicious Strike were excellent balls for the first 20 to 25 games then they died away.  However, this is a product of being a particle and it is clear now that particle balls do not fit my style but rather a reactive resin ball.

There is a purpose for each ball as well.  The Big Block Diesel is excellent ball to start with for house type shots and even short oil pattern PBA/Sport shots.  However, the ball is not very good with long oil patterns, I am getting a Storm XXX extreme for that.  When the oil carries down a little I use the Dyno-thane AU79.

So not only does the ball have to fit your style but the ball has to match the condition your throwing on as well.  

I have also learned that it is very easy to blame the ball for everything but a vast majority of the time issues are a result of USER error.

Yea. You both are making pretty closed minded statements, based on one ball. And actually, its a ball that not many people did like. So really, its your loss. And yes, also mentioned before, you are really a moron, if your busting on Hammer, and throwing Ebonite, which PRODUCES Hammer products.....dumba§s.
