NEW RULES!? NEW TOOLS! | Black Pearl Urethane Hammer 78D

[@krsbigkahuna]

Looks like you will have to do an update video on your Hammer 3 ball arsenal, a series of videos I liked a lot. I would like to see that comparison video with the purple Hammer also one comparing the 2.0 VS 3.0 Black Widows.

[@onions86]

That would be awesome!

[@KyleClark-lt7ox]

I'm glad to hear you are going to do a future comparison video with the original. If there was one that needed to be done it's this! Put the arguments to bed because this is just every bit as good as the original. Keep making great content.

[@scottshiira6551]

Great to see you making videos again BrunsNick! Looking forward to the comparison video with the Purple, Black, and NU

[@aceismyrealname4251]

Looking forward to your Scorpion low flare video.... maybe tomorrow??? Quality content as always.

[@brunsnick]

Not tomorrow. Maybe this weekend. 👍🏻

[@jamesweddle1143]

I’m very interested in this ball as well

[@beerbatter5376]

I hope your comparison video is sooner vs later. After watching your purple pearl video, I was sold on getting the purple before inventory dried up. Thanks in advance for your reviews.

[@ObjectiveEthics]

I'm looking forward to seeing the new Scorpion ball review. I love my Scorpion Hybrid and my Scorpion Sting 👍

[@onions86]

Yes! That was the most interesting of all the new releases to me. Can’t wait to see what that low flare does.

[@ObjectiveEthics]

@@onions86 The only thing that I am concerned with is that the new Scorpion Low Flair is going to shape exactly like my Scorpion Hybrid with several games on it. I could get my Hybrid resurfaced but right now I can throw it up 5 and I don't have many other options to play that straight. When it was new I would stand on 25 - 30 and throw around 15 down to 5-7 breakpoint. *I say "concerned" because if it's going to be the same shape I am currently getting then I can't justify buying it even though I would love to add a new ball to my collection lol.

[@mrmuffins951]

Really interesting how popular this ball is becoming in comparison to the blue NU Hammer

[@kingofthenystreets1721]

[@bowlingxp8345]

Thanks for the review. Looks as expected. Grabbing the lane a bit less than the purple due to the hardness. waiting for the comparison. (i bet you'll have the same shirt on for that video :P )

[@brunsnick]

Maybe. But they weren’t filmed same day. 6 ball videos were enough for me.

@@brunsnick Ah. I guessed wrong then lol. But i know it helps to film several together. But yeah, i would have got tired at 4 lol.

[@brunsnick]

I do like that shirt the best though. 😎

[@traviskirk3834]

Out of all my urethane balls the one I threw the most is the faball enterprise blue pearl hammer urethane and I know I can have it 240 grit or lower or have it polished same out of box and point the ball at the 2 pin and it will hook enough to hit the pocket and when the lanes are toasted very badly like 4 leftys using the same line . She was my goat . Now I use the older version of the magenta urethane hammer from overseas and love it at 500 grit on wood and 360 grit on synthetic lanes.

[@MegaAmeoba]

I still occasionally use the old pink hammer. My favorite ball of all! Used it for my first 300 in 1996. Over 790 three times, but never 800. With minimal oil it hits HARD

[@remington1439]

I just bought that Magnetic hammer ball’ they also gave me a free shirt (nothing to brag about) but and ways it should be ready for me to pin up.

[@b.r.fowler785]

8:40 Where’s Randy?! 😂🤣

[@billzwit4064]

Hey Brunswick, Them racks sure give you an open 1-3 pocket. So if you always used the offset pocket, that would tip your percentage of solid 8 leaves toward 0 %. Then you would be perfect!

[@brunsnick]

They need readjustment for sure.

[@busse1974]

old solid black hammer urethane vs new 78 black utethane compere nice to see difference those balls .hope BrunsNick doo videos

[@jamesweddle1143]

Love the videos I am VERY INTERESTED in a video of the new Scorpion low flare!!!! When might we see that ball??

[@brunsnick]

Soon!

[@nordattack]

Wonderful ball! I think the PBA cut its own throat. With the introduction of the new hardness rule, I expect to actually see even 'more' urethane being used now. These more controlled urethane balls will allow the strokers to go right at them where they could not with the softer urethanes and the high rev bowlers will have even more control on tricky patterns. Thank you PBA and welcome all to the 80's again.

[@DeezyMilano]

Love this ball

[@Lovetheducks]

lol I ask you about this and you did a video on it an hour before I didn’t notice til now

[@larrylacroix3944]

Looks really really good

[@P.vieRa_YT]

Heeeeeeeere’s BrunsNick!

[@brianlevandowski3167]

What about the tip that ctd recommends really scuffing it up with below 360 grit, using the resurfacing pad. It adds a few boards of wiggle room & makes it consistently shape.

[@ripvanrevs]

I would guess the pba guys will have a couple pads lower than 500!

[@brunsnick]

Adjust however you like for what you need. There’s no one grit fits all answer.

[@ohmygoditsyomamma]

I’m still using my brunswick true motion it’s my favorite

[@bal1861]

It's missing the sound of the original black urethane. Would like to see the comparison between the two

[@brunsnick]

Don’t have one.

[@willieyoung7070]

Shout out to Nick for another great video! I do have a question, more so a comparison question. How would this ball compare to the pink widow? Both have similar numbers in terms of rg and diff, as well as finish. This ball is 500, with the pink widow being 360/800. I got the pink widow to go along with my purple hammer and I still don’t know how to properly use it. Can you do a video where you compared all three, the purple, pink widow and this ball. I am really curious to see what difference (if any) there may be between those two particular balls.

[@brunsnick]

Pink Widow Urethane numbers are not close at all. It’s low RG, high differential as opposed to high RG and low differential with the Black Pearl. It’s much earlier. I had more success playing much further right with it and a lot of speed. It set up too early compared to Purple even, and the Black is a few boards less than Purple even.

[@SMGOmegadb91]

I'm wondering what's going to be Next a emerald green urethane

[@lukeanderton5529]

That'd be cool, a emerald green obsession core urethane

78. Better core.

[@MISTA.OATMEAL]

my 78d hooks way too much! i drilled it the weakest layout in the 2ls system. i throw about 14.5 mph with about 300 rev rate. any suggestions?

[@brunsnick]

@@MISTA.OATMEAL add speed or decrease surface.

[@1985supramk2]

How different is it from the old original Columbia black U-dot? Is all urethane mostly the same

[@brunsnick]

It’s not really the same otherwise competitors could copy the Purple Hammer and now this.

[@Bowler4Ever]

I'm waiting for my NU Blue to be punched up and ready to go and now this!? Man, Hammer fans are getting spoiled! I do have a request in regards to the comparison video vs the Purple...do you have a Black Urethane by any chance? If so, that would be awesome to throw into the mix, too...just for fun!

[@brunsnick]

Nope. Only have this black urethane.

[@EdTechGC]

How does it compare to the effect?

[@brunsnick]

It’s Urethane so it doesn’t really compare. A lot smoother and less hook.

[@EdTechGC]

Thank you again!!

[@stevenbennett4210]

I've never rolled a urethane ball. I'm a stroker with 11mph speed. I get along better with symmetric than asymmetrical. My pro shop says that I don't want a urethane ball. What say you.

[@brunsnick]

I say it’s your money! Only real thing I’d suggest is maybe bring the surface up to accommodate slower speed.

[@mariansowinski8967]

​@@brunsnickHow far up can you bring the surface?

[@douglasbuck8986]

Pads go as high as 4000....with compound or polish you can reach 5500.....

I am a stroker as well and my purple hammers are my my go to balls. I used to primarily only buy Storm or Roto Grip pearl reactive balls, but these urethane balls by Hammer are something special. Go get one!

[@LeadTheWolves]

hi, how does this compare to the Scorpion Low Flare?

[@brunsnick]

Way smoother. It’s urethane.

[@Ncha1ned]

How does this compare to the Hammer Black Urethane Solid (Overseas)?

[@brunsnick]

Not sure sorry, never get to throw the overseas stuff much. I would imagine this has to be weaker and cleaner.

I usually create way more entry angle but urethane is much smoother.

[@user-lt4xd7vw4t]

Why are they banning balls, you can't even see the PBA on TV anymore and when you do its a very canned event. Why not try to get the sport put back on TV, men and woman and maybe build a following again and watch the PBA make a come back with new bowlers and the spirit of competition.

The Pba is most definitely always on fox. For all majors.

[@jacobmccain8082]

Same reason golf is rolling back the balls. Bunch of old dudes salty that they didnt have tech (and moreso physiques) like that when they were playing...

[@XenoGuru]

​@jacobmccain8082 I don't think that's all of it though. It's because everyone was using the purple and winning. It was a political move by the other bowling companies because their sales were tanking. Even PBA bowlers that were sponsored by other companies than Brunswick were using it.

[@user-lt4xd7vw4t]

@@XenoGuru True, the PBA has become very political and Bolero is not helping the sport, but back in the day when bowling was extremly popular the pros could use any bowling ball. Now as soon as they banned it now all you see on the tour is urethane and if you throw urethane in league people go crazy. Truth is you need to get bowling back in the schools or the sport is going to slowly fade away

[@XenoGuru]

​@user-lt4xd7vw4t The "sport" of bowling has been slowly going downhill ever since Earl Anthony retired. And while Pete Weber saved it for a short while with his exaggerated antics, those actions have led it to become what it is today. Crazy lighting, loud music, a drunk wild crowd. Much like a WWE wrestling match than a dignified professional sport as it used to be in the past. Not to mention Randy Petersen and Rob Stones' earbleeding commentary. We need people like Walter Ray Williams Jr and Norm Duke doing professional commentary. As far as league bowlers going crazy when another bowler uses urethane, that's just because some bowlers will find any reason to complain when they're not bowling well. All bowling balls carry oil downlane, not just urethane. And the bigger picture: Lane machines don't always oil the lanes perfectly even. Most houses don't even clean their machines properly. A dirty lane machine will leave all kinds of nasty conditions on the lane. The temperature and topography of the house can also heavily influence lane conditions. At my house, lanes 21 through 26 are always a nightmare because they're right near the main entrance. Every time that door opens, those lanes change. 😂
