Hammer Red Pearl Claw Hammer Bowling Ball

It is not the perfect ball for fried conditions but at least it can be controlled better than more aggressive coverstocks when the lanes are fried. I play it from behind the ball mostly up to 45 degree tilt depending on the conditions and how much I can swing it and still carry the ten pin. Once you learn the boundaries you can carry and score higher than you might think. It is definitely a straight player's ball and a good ball for anyone trying to throw straighter when their inside shots are not working. I suspect I am one of the few people to own or dare to try to use one of these balls but for slower shooters it is a must to have a ball like this in the arsenal. I find it carries most frequently with a slight axis tilt and small hook...it will walk to the pocket in a slow arc but can be a little more aggressive if you tell it to with your hand position. Mine is drilled to go long.<
