Is this a good replacement to the widow 3.0?

As a so called Hammer head I a lot hammer balls 2 of which are 3d offsets Attack and a blue high Rev which I love and are my go to balls out of the bag first

Hi I decided to go Ebonite towaeds the end of 2024. I currently own the One Reverb and the Emerge Hybrid. Can i have your recommendation which Solid coverstock ball i could consider from the Ebonite Line? Thanks Btw , extra information, i do cureently own the Hammer Radioactive Vibe., But it gets dirty easily and this is putting me off. And thinking of getting rid of it and replacing it with an Ebonite bowling ball

What would be better, 4in pin to pap or 4 1/2in?

Is that the same core as the sledgehammer?

I have 8 of these balls now on this chart where would you put the new Effect Tour, Pure Envy, Anger that i have and Black Widow Mania witch i am planning to also buy. There you have the guy hoo plays only with Hammer balls. Please continue helping. Iam starting to be confused.

Let's goooo!!!!🔥🎳

Thanks for this breakdown! Going to have to get this one in the bag before tournament season starts.

You wouldn't expect the Zone core to do what it does, since it looks plain; but its backend motion is reliable for speed dominant bowlers, as well as balanced. The rev dominant folks don't worry about backend. If they are seeing deflection, they are throwing the ball too fast. I've seen the Mesmerize, and it reads dependably for all bowlers (speed, matched, rev dominant), and the backend motion is strong, along with continuation that can't be denied, thanks to Specto (look at the pin deck exit board for pocket hits).

My Ultimate Defender is sweet. My Intense Mindset is money!

Vaporize is awesome and I’m still breaking in that ball of the year definitely glad I got them both, would recommend as well..

The 30 year anniversary of the Danger Zone is just around the corner! I’d love to see its return with HK22 and thick shell! Or at least Dynamicore 2. Maybe call it Dangerize, Bryan! Ha! No I’d rather the old Danger Zone with the iconic Z look. I’d probably order a truckload since I still throw the original and vintage Danger Zones.

Pre-watch prediction: Mesmerize, Vaporize, Ivory Rhino. I personally loved the Endeavor, but can't recall seeing more than a few of them. Post-watch: Mesmerize was an easy call. My PSO sold so many of them. And the Vaporize was super popular as well.

I just got a Mesmerize drilled and so far it has been impressive and taking place of my old reliable Evo solid.

Nice video. Keep up the great videos.

I need a pro shop local to me that will even attempt to understand anything about these no thumb layouts. The 2 centers here roll their eyes when someone walks in not using a thumbhole. I'd like to get my PaP and current layout and just order balls already drilled in this manner to save the frustration. 😑

ZigZag Solid (first sanctioned 300 with it). The Hitter Pearl-love the shape and hitting power. I’m picking up a No Doubt in a couple of weeks and encouraged by your pick as B.O.T.Y.

Rattler Big Bite had more control for me. Pin down. Love all the Radicals.

Would love to see a "tour" version of the Hitter; same core shape -- low rg, med diff .040-.045, mild asym .010. HK22C Utility Solid. Dark 2 colors, without the high contrast logos.

Max bias for me

No doubt

Rattler NU and No Doubt are both in my bag. NU is so versatile, I can go up the boards on fresh, and when the lanes are toasted I can go back to it (with added rotation). No Doubt is probably my favorite ball to throw, it carries all kinds of pocket hits.

The NU was special. I have the conspiracy hk22, rattler big bite and the NU. Love all 3.

Zig-Zag for me

Hitter Pearl and then No Doubt for me.

Pre-watch predictions: This one is easy for me. The Rattler NU is by far and away my personal boty. My picks would be Rattler NU, Hitter Pearl and No Doubt. I didn't realize how many great balls Radical had until the balls popped up. So much good stuff there. Post-watch: Guess I pretty much nailed that one.

I can't wait for the Black Widow Mania.

My favorite Hammer ball in 2024 is the Effect and the Pure Envy.

Black widow has transitioned into my spare ball. Pin down drilling and it responds very well to my hand positions. It's very easy to hook or throw dead straight. Nice to have a spare ball I can throw for strikes.

Hi, can we use the 'No-Thumb_to_Dual_Angle_Converter_Combined' app with any ball from a different brand? Thank you

@bowlingBuckosh unearthing this because I have access to this and a Columbia High Speed and debating which to go with. I would be using it has a ball down from a Pure Madness but hoping for more shape than the slow madness. Any recommendations?

My favorite ball was the Effect until I purchased an Anger… it’s too bad that was released so late in the year. It literally is the ball I’ve been looking for to combat trashed house shot… the Effect still get thrown the most out of the bag….

Love your content! I’m considering replacing my Envy Tour with the Effect Tour.

I do love my ME. Great video! Nothing hits like a Hammer. Question: I still love my Blue Hammer Urethane. See how I can't buy a new one again, what would you suggest I can replace my old classic BHU with?

I love my pure envy...staple in my bag!!!

I have really enjoyed my pin down Hammer Effect, and just received an Hammer Effect Tour from a mystery ball box! Not sure what layout to use though.

Like my Widow 3.0, love my Widow 2.0 Hybrid. Haven't used the Anger or Scorpion Strike enough yet.

Low Flare

I have a bag of 10 Hammers and my favorite of them is the new Hazmat Solid. I also really like the Effect and still use my Black Widow 2.0 Hybrid after the Effect. Another ball I use a lot from 2024 is the Scorpion Low Flare. It handles a lot of different conditions. Another amazing Hammer that came out this year is the Arctic Vibe. It hooks way more than I thought it would, but it is great when the lanes start breaking down.

Pre-watch predictions. Super hard to pick 3 balls, because Hammer could really do no wrong this year. so instead of picked the 3 think won, I'm going to pick the 3 see on the lanes the most in league. Black Window 3.0, Arctic Vibe and Hammer Effect. Although almost every ball could make the list, those are the 3 I see every where on league night. Post-watch. I can see the Effect Tour making the list, because it's been super popular as well, especially considering it's so new. The recent Vibes are all just so good... and people seem to love the white arctic. I'd buy myself a case of Radioactives if I could find them, because that ball is so perfect for me.

Great and thorough review!

I forgot to say that I really appreciate the way you set up the balls at the bottom of the screen and directional map on the right while enlarging the ball that you are talking about. This is an excellent layout!

Anxious to see the Radical video.

The OG Theorem was my Track ball if the year. It may have come out the end of last year.

Archetype Hybrid has been my best Track Ball this year, go to in transition or even first ball out on a med/med plus oiled lane in game 1.. pairs great with DV8 hater and Captiv8 absolute sleeper that was left behind by most…and lastly the benchmark Ball of your choice Hazmat Solid/GB5. Thanks to B7 for filling it up this year and you Brian for the help in making these choices.

I never would have thought of myself as a fanboy for any brand, but I have loved every Track ball that I have thrown. I bought 2 Archetype, 2 Archetype Hybrid, a Theorem, a Stealth, and a Tundra Fire Blue this year. I haven't tried the Stealth yet.

It's the OG Theorem for me

Ok, you sold me on the GB5, a ball I've been considering. I have the Radical Hitter, so would those balls be very similar, or should I just go ahead with the purchase? Obviously I don't want too much of an overlap, TIA

I've got the cypher and thernom and now archetype hybrid

I know the og theorem was 2023 but it came out in Dec. I love that ball. Also you spelled Cliterion wrong.
