Slow answer...

There is the Deep Purple Taboo http://hammerbowling.com/products/product_detail/taboo_deep_purple/ and the Blue/Silver Taboohttp://hammerbowling.com/products/product_detail/taboo_bluesilver/...

Which are you referring to?

The question still remains, which ball are you talking about?

Depends on the condition.  It has a pretty strong backend, so it's pretty versatile, but they die pretty quickly.  I haven't seen any sanded pearl from Hammer that has any kind of longevity.  Mine died in about 2 months.

Not true I've had mine for almost a year and its still going strong. As long as you keep up with maintenance it's a great ball.

The Purple is a heavy hooking pretty even reaction compared to say the Black.

I have a lighter handed friend who has done quite nice with his all year.

We can't get any sanded pearls to hold up here.  Every single Deep Purple and Blue/Silver we have sold has died pretty quickly, no matter what people do to them.  Cleaning doesn't help, resurfacing doesn't help.  Glad yours is still serving you well though, I still have mine for use on drier sport patterns.
