I'd be willing to bet not too many people have had a chance to throw it yet.

I have seen the post on this ball and have seen 1 person throw the ball but I dont understand the logic behind producing this ball...

They have the - BW & BWP

Somebody tell me what will it do different...

The specs say med to heavy but people are saying heavy oil ball and its also good when carry down has happen..  

Carry down is unpredictable so again what is the purpose of this ball...

On a THS I honestly don't know what good this ball will do for you, because it is so strong. I was playing the middle arrow out to 3 and coming in high flush with this ball and I am usually no deeper than the third arrow on fresh and even then I am struggling to carry the 10 at times. The ball is for long patterns and for people with low revs. I only have medium revs and the ball looks like someone kicks it straight left.

Everyone already has a BW so you put out a new one and everyone will want the new one too. The pro shop already sold a ton of them. Good marketing by Hammer, IMO.

I threw this ball for one set. IMO, the reason why it's said to be med-heavy is because I was able able to throw it on both conditions. For me, the ball did not check up early. It kept it's lenght all night. I did not see any effects from carydown.

Bite~is stronger than any BWP or BW I've thrown yet to date. It's very comparable to an Anger to be truthful. More angular on the backend than an Anger, to where the Anger will be more even hook on heavier oil.

But yes, from what I've thrown mine, it's a "big hooker".
