where do i start? the ball hits hella hard to say the least. this ball gave me a whole new reason to keep bowling. My league average is now at about 180, when previously it was around.. 150.... yeah depressing, but this ball is just full of tricks. even if you throw it way out, it just seems to come back and hit that pocket, plowing the pins i bought a X-out.. so the colors don't look that nice where do i start? the ball hits hella hard to say the least. this ball gave me a whole new reason to keep bowling.

This is the first Hammer ball ive tried since back in the Vicious (Burn out after 10 games) day. I have had the ball for almost a full season and the ball is going strong. It hooks alot, has nice backend, and what i like about it is that if i go deep and swing it across a lot of boards, it still recovers and hits hard, it doesnt roll out like most balls. A great choice for anyone looking for a ball for medium to medium heavy lanes, especially if your house shot has a little more oil in the middle.

This ball is AMAZING!!! I have a 175 Average, low to medium revs, stroker, and a righty. I love this ball. It has an amazing hook. Not to strong or weak of a hook. If I throw it out to the 3 board it comes back. If I throw it over 10 board it doesn't over react. It is simply AMAZING. The coler, name, strenght, everything!!! I don't know why anyone would need or want more hook than what it gives. Great on fresh or carrydowned lanes. Well anyways thanks for listening. I LOVE MY HAWG WILD. Thanks Hammer... *Fresh Lanes- Heavy oil in center and thins out to the gutter the house shot is about the 5 board. My Hawg Wild can be thrown anywhere in the oil. Hawg Wild is so smooth.... (Before I heard people talking about a ball being smooth and I thought what does that mean? It means that you can't hear the ball rolling, there is a second of silence, and then BOOM!!!) The lenght of the ball is great. It goes down and then explodes into the pins (Now I know why it is called Hawg WILD!) The ball

Like i said i am new and since getting the hawg wild, i have jumped up at least 20 pins on my avg. I love this ball it looks good and feels good. It goes out and comes in nice. I recomend it to everyone. 3/22/06 I tried a new line today and oh my god did it improve my game. I started on the last dot to the left, and threw betwen the 3rd and 4th arrow on the left. It was perfect. Anyway I hope that this review helps you pick up this ball if you were thinking about it.

I know this ball is not officially released yet, but I got my hands on the new Road Hawg. This ball comes up very strong in the backends with great length. It doesn't hook angullary sharp, but makes a very strong move. The best thing about it is the hitting power. I've been bowling for about 20 years and I have yet to see a ball that impressed me more in the first 3 games than this one. It absolutly crushes the pocket sneding pins flying and keeping them very low. I only shot 695 with it in my first outing, nothing special, but that was in a house where the high mens league average is only 204. If you have speed and like to play inside where the oil is, then this is your ball.

For me this is a ball that give me a few diffrent looks on the lane all with 1 ball. Because it is reactive, the ball doesnt experiance burn up as quickly. It also provides some versitility, meaning the ball can be polished or dulled with ease. As for the layout used, the pin is directly under the bridge with the cg out a 30 degrees. What this does for the most part is its gives me moderate length with a smooth roll of the spot. I the ball doesnt tilt on the backend allowing me to make adjustments faster and more precisely. Before drilling, I used Brunswicks Factory Polish, just a small amount. Overall, grab one. Those of you who liked the Hawg but need more length and control for most conditions, this is then a Must Have. Peace and Good Bowling. Brandon Ross

We got our Hammerhead ProShop ball, and I drilled it up for myself. I drilled the ball with the pin and CG 4 1/2 inches from my axis point. I didn't need a weight hole with this layout. I tested this bowling ball on a couple of different shots. A sport shot, tournament shot, and our house shot. The sport shot was 37 feet with heavy volume of oil. The tournament shot was a modified house shot, with outbounds outside of 5. Then our high volume house shot. Our normal house shot has around 80 to 90 unit from 15 to 15, and blended out to the gutter. I found on the tournament shot, I had enough ball because of the lesser volume of oil. On the sport shot, and our house shot, the ball was not enough coverstock in the factory finish. After talking it over with Brian Graham, I changed the coverstock to 1000 grit Abarlon. Since I love all 5 of my Big Deals, Brian felt that I should change the coverstock to what those balls are finished at. What a difference this made to the

My PAP is 5 1/8” > x 1/8”^ Hawg Wild 4 5/8 x 3 ¼ with the pin ¾ “ above the midline and and ½” right of the centerline the cg is 2 “ right and ¾” below X hole 3/4” below VAL 3 3/8”down 3/4”” 3” deep in the Rev Leverage Area. Weight hole is 6” from the pin in line with the CG which is 45 degrees from the center of grip 5 ¾ from the Center of grip. I have only practiced with the ball for a few minutes and one scored game. The pattern is dry outside more oil in the middle however there is no tug or swing room and the shot is EXTREMELY speed sensitive. If I executed the shot I struck. If I babied the ball I didn’t. The one game I did score I shot 215 which I thought was acceptable with the tough condition we had. I was able to play multiple angles to the pocket, Up 10 14 out to 8 and a fall back shot. When the ball flips at about 45’ it looks like someone just kicked the ball left. I''ll be giving the ball a good test this weekend at a Sr. Tour
