    The Doom Raw Hammer is a great ball for those lanes where you want a bit of extra length while still maintaining an aggressive back end. My house lanes have fairly dry boards between 1-8, so with the Doom I can swing the ball out into the dry, get the required length before it comes thundering back to the pocket. One thing that took me a bit by surprise was the reaction when I first put it onto the ball return. There were a lot of people coming and looking at it, and saying how nice it looks. Those same people were awe struck when they saw it go long down the lane and then snap hard back to the hole. This is another great ball from a great company, and I can't wait to see the other balls inthe Raw Hammer line.

    I picked this ball up a couple of weeks ago to compliment my Hawg. I usually use it toward the end of the night when the shot starts to go away. The ball has such a smooth roll to it and the amount of revs you can put on it without much effort is wonderful. Has to be one of the best balls I've thrown. My buddies were commenting on how this ball has an explosive finish. Pins look like shrapnel from a grenade blast, flying all over the place. I'm not usually one for the color red, but the red pearl on this ball just looks bad a$$.

    Gloom and doom for the pins. It does just what I needed it to do. I put the cg one inch above my center grip and the pin on the same line 2 1/2 inches above the finger grips. Ball goes long and then sideways. Absolutely makes a distinctive left turn when it finds the break point. I can play almost anywhere on the lane. Wow does this ball go long. With the angle I can create it just demolishes the pins. It is hard to describe but the break point is even predictable even if it is very snappy. Very impressed that a ball would do just what it was designed to do.

    Just got the ball from Hammer. Drill it using a Rev Leverage drill. Axis hole on my vertical axis line taking the ball back to 0. Threw it last night on fresh house condition, 300 227 235 234 996 (4 game scratch league). Strong move in the midlane with no over reaction. Just a tad stronger all around than the Big Block Diesel. Was able to throw it all night. Just kept moving left to catch oil. Another solid ball from Hammer and the color is fantastic. Got a lot of looks last night, must of been the color! S Wilson

    I got this ball from our Hammerhead pro shop equipment. I laid this ball out with the pin 4 1/2 and the cg from my positive axis point (PAP). I didn't need a weight hole with this layout. I threw this on our house shot 1st and 2nd shift, and on a tournament shot. I did not do any surface adjustments. I found this ball to be great for the skid/flip reaction. On fresh backend, this ball goes sideways at the breakpoint. I was able to swing the ball from 10 out to about the 3 board and have the ball boom back to the pocket on our house shot. On the tournament condition, I was able to move deeper inside and swing the ball out and get it back with no problem. The ball hit hard and crisp. One thing I didn't expect throwing this ball was all the people to ask me what I was throwing and how much everyone commented on how much they liked the colors. This doesn't help the ball reaction but just something that I don't normally hear from bowlers. I think this ball fills a gap in
