How does the Natural compare to the old Black Hammer?

Before the comparisons drop, please remember how much LESS OIL was applied to a lane when the Black Hammer was released.

It doesnt. Way stronger overall. From watching Jeff Carter toss his, it reminds me more of a ball drilled with the pin 2-3 inches from PAP. Early, smooth, continuous. If you want to compare the Natural to an older urethane, you may need to go with something like the Purple Hammer, but still think it is a different animal altogether.

If anyone out there is worried about the scores being too high, try duckpin!!

I have used the black hammer recently so the oil volume isn't in question for me. I would continue using it but I switched from 16 to 15 a few years back and the hammer is 16. I got a Roto Grip Neptune but the reaction wasn't what I was looking for. It was too much ball. I dug the hammer out to try and it had the controlled reaction I was looking for. I'm just looking for something close to that.
