Don't let price fool you. The Hammer Blade series is awesome. the extra 70 bucks for a quote "high end" ball is not worth it.
learn your game and then decide if the latest hook in the box, pin destroying, 20 pins over average,carry ten automatically, must have in your bag, honor scoring only ball, is right for you.
Unless you have too much money and belive a $300 ball will make you a superstar,I say, save some money for coaching by getting quality equipment at a lower cost. That is what will raise your scores.
