Create my Hammer arsenal
« on: March 19, 2010, 10:44:08 AM »
Create my 5 ball Hammer arsenal.

if you think I need more add them in..suggested layouts or ball shape for each ball appreciated.

Does Hammer actually have a ball for heavy oil now or are they all THS, bounce off the dry balls..??
--------------------
18 mph,350 rpm,PAP 5 1/2 x 3/8up, 15 deg axis tilt, varied rotational axis deg.. usually 45+
HighGame 300 x 4, High Series 808
Book Average 205,PBA Xperience 185
350 RPM, 17 MPH

BW Sting - Strong layout, get the mass a little more toward the thumb to cut down on the jerk down lane, maybe 3 to 4 inch pin from axis

BW Nasty - Similar layout to the Sting, but this should get through the fronts a little easier with some nice pop in the back

Jacked - This ball is really strong for it's price point. Got the Original BW cover with a Real Deal core (how can you go wrong??). Would go with a pin under drill maybe a hole down if you wanted to get it going a little faster.

Onyx - Another strong ball for the price, get it pin up to get down lane

Emerald - Similar to the onyx for when it starts to run out of gas

Optional :

Corner - A lot of fun to throw because it hooks so much, but does soak up a lot of oil so have to move quite often. For your rev rate and hand think it would just chew through most shots.

Burn - Same thing a lot of fun to throw and think this is one of the best THS balls there is. Best ball for wet/dry there has been in years

Hope this helps

I am a left hand shooter and i got:

 Black Widow Black: For lanes that are messy. 1500 abralon
 Black Widow Bite: For start ball, agressive moves. 4000 abralon
 Black Widow Venom: For highly oil lanes, polish.  4000 abralon
 Black Widow Sting: modify the layout, for more agressive move.. 2000 abralon

 Black Widow's: Black
                Bite
                Venom
                Sting
 Nothing hits like a Hammer....

I can give you the ball suggestions but layouts are a personal thing based on your game and such so....

Onyx Vibe is a must have
Burn is the epitome of a skid-snap ball on medium conditions
Black Widow Nasty...smooth and strong yet controllable
Jacked...a much better version of the Acid, much earlier than anything else in Hammer's line but it's a must have
Jigsaw Corner...cover is so versatile and tunable it's hard not to pick this one

Onyx Vibe-500 Smooth
Jigsaw Corner-2000 Smooth
Hot Sauce-4000 Strong arc
Jacked-4000 shine Strong Backed
Razyr-4000

Reasoning:
Onyx is very underrated and should be a very controllable oil ball. JC is a strong ball whose strength can be tamed and smoothed out for consistency and predictability. HS is a very controllable and should let you play most anywhere on the lane. Knock off shine to increase its control. Shine the Jacked because the violent cover is very smooth and predictable. Its only a "strong oil" ball because of all the surface. Razyr should be straight enough for spares and with the 4000 surface, you should be able to use it on more conditions and it should smooth it out for dry lanes.
