DON'T MAKE ME CHOOSE! 😬 | Hammer Effect vs. Black Widow 3.0

The hottest new Hammer balls of 2024 heads up against each other! Hammer Effect vs. Black Widow 3.0 - How will they stack up?
🚨🚨🚨BRAND NEW BRUNSNICK MERCH!🚨🚨🚨
I have collaborated with Inside Bowling to design some t-shirts and here they are! Spray N' Pray and Stomp N' Spray are available now, check out the link!
www.insidebowling.com/collections/brunsnick
With the help of SPECTO data, it'll help tell the story about reaction shape, overall hook and continuation through the pins. Here are the SPECTO data points used and definition of each term:
Launch Speed - Speed measured off the hand.
Entry Speed - Speed measured at the pins. (What you'd see on your home center MPH screens)
Rev Rate - Revolutions Per Minute (RPM)
Launch Angle - The angle the ball traveled the first 10 feet.
Break Point Position - Board at which the ball was at its outermost position.
Total Hook - Total number of boards the ball crosses on the way to the pins.
Hook Power - Number of boards the ball hooked based on the True Breakpoint.
Entry Angle - The angle of the ball between 51 and 55 feet.
Impact Angle - The angle of the ball between 57 and 59.5 feet.
Pin Deck Exit - Ball position at the end of the pin deck.

Now I would like to see the Hammer effect as a solid. That much power on a pearl is crazy.

[@brianschumaker5912]

Excellent video. I like to see ball comparisons. Especially two balls close to one another. Love to see the educational vids too. Just find a balance between the two and everybody is happy.

[@Matt_K29910]

As always great video! I just picked up a BW 3.0 and I can’t wait to use it!

[@cameronmorgan0203]

Love my 3.0 and can’t wait to practice with my new Effect tomorrow 🔥👏🏾

[@rafabonati7757]

This should be a good one. Wait, all of BrunsNick’s are good ones!

[@tyronebullockjr7479]

Gotta love hearing Brunsnick quote Charles of the Hype “It’s just different man”

[@randymelissabutton2159]

I just got the BW 3.0 and love it!! My wife is going to get the effect, sure wish we had the same span.....

[@brunsnick]

In a perfect world right ?

[@larrylacroix3944]

Great video

[@ObjectiveEthics]

Another solid video. Great camera angles and SPECTO data show us everything we need to know.

[@brunsnick]

Thanks!

[@TerryPullen]

I wish the editor would leave the ball release in the first part of the clip, just a half second longer and we could see how he releases the ball. I like the rest of it though.

[@brunsnick]

@@TerryPullen I don’t understand. The release is shown and replayed in slo mo every shot.

[@amazingmordecai2661]

I stacked my 3.0 with the trouble maker pearl and its an awesome combo. Good video nick!

[@michaeljamrozy4299]

I love the shirt! Was lucky enough to bowl ProAm with Dasha. She rocks 🪨 🎸 😎 BrunsNick rocks too 🪨 🎸 😎

[@dweb6916]

Please talk about surface changes you make to the bowling balls if any? Love the channel!!!

[@brunsnick]

I usually do when I make them but not often 👍🏻

[@joeleypants8837]

Mr. Brunsnick! I have a question that I can't find an answer to, but you might have it. There are pre orders on the Nu Blue leather shammies, but I can't find a release date. You wouldn't happen to know, would you?

[@brunsnick]

There’s never usually a release date for accessories. Just waiting for them to arrive and then funnel out to distributors and pro shops.

[@millsdjr]

Vote BrunsNick and Dasha '24 sign me up!

[@narutofanar]

You're the best! Great videos as always!

[@shaneimler9328]

Got my 3.0 the day it was released. Shot 1030 in four 2 days ago.

[@Hlywood25]

Hey Nick, what is the difference in Total Hook and Hook Power? Thx

[@brunsnick]

Hook Power is boards crossed from the break point. I have the glossary of SPECTO terms in the description on every video for reference.

[@MrPoserina]

I know you’re not big on comparisons, but I think it would be interesting to see the similarities/differences between the Effect and the DV8 Violent Collision. They seem to be close in their composition, except the cores.

[@TeamIFDVideos]

I think my 2.0 hybrid is dead. Gonna try extracting oil and a resurface but it's missing that pop.

[@brunsnick]

That stuff is important 👍🏻

[@johnnyappleseed2667]

Great comparison! How similar do you think the balls would be if they were prepped with the same surface?

[@brunsnick]

Hard to say! Effect might actually pick up earlier

[@pluralslinky5004]

Are the BW hybrid 2.0 and the effect too similar to run them both in a three ball arsenal? Usually go BW2H down to Raw Smoke for game 3. Or would the NU B be the better 3rd ball?

[@brunsnick]

If you leave both shiny with similar layout they may be too close. As for NU, if they are really dry it would be a good choice.

[@robertgibson7217]

From what I saw in my league, you can stay in the widow longer since the solid cover blends the pattern more. My effect would see the dry and instantly start rolling left lol very fun when there’s a lot of oil. The Effect is my favorite look, and I have other balls to move to afterwards including the 2.0 hybrid 🔥 I love Hammer’s line right now

[@stevecemprola9846]

I feel Hammer is leading every brand right now when it comes to quality, quantity, and versatility

[@timriecken5453]

U just gonna breeze right by that 8 pin leave? 🤔🤣 I LOVE the video. Seemingly splitting hairs for me. My best bowling days i had a 210 average. With all my health problems, I can roll a 220 and next game a 180. For me, I'm not going to be consistent enough to notice the subtle differences. Does that make sense, or am I crazy? I'm LOVING the Effect for how I throw. Widow 3.0 seemed a bit strong for me, and 2.0 hybrid was the choice until the Effect came out. Would love your opinion. I had a 900 bank roll until it split 360 degrees after sitting in my office through covid, and before that, it was a teal rhino 16lb (when I was WAY more flexible and not a nearly disintegrated ankle). U know I love your stuff! ✌️

[@brunsnick]

Not crazy at all! And that 8 pin wasn’t a “true” 8 pin 🤣

[@erichesche1602]

I use the effect as the pearl version of the bw 3.0

[@brunsnick]

Perfect idea.

[@michaelnotsch6112]

Completely off subject, but have you heard of the Brunswick Virtual bowling & is there some place to buy them? I have seen some online at some arcades but I am guessing that they are no longer able to purchase.

[@brunsnick]

I don’t know what that is. Sorry.

[@michaelnotsch6112]

​@@brunsnick It was a bowling simulator, it doesn't have pins & had a short lane plus a screen that would show what the ball would have done. I think it was made in the early 2000s.

[@goldenrabbit03]

What's the weight on these two balls, Nick? Thanks

[@brunsnick]

[@BaesickBowls]

I'm lucky enough my local house is running a '2-ball' League and these are the two balls you get.

[@brunsnick]

Now that’s a good league!

[@mattyhayes3201]

Noice!!

[@louiscornale5667]

Bar open?😮

[@earthwormjim7310]

Should compare the 3.0 hybrid vs effect.

[@Bigchris38]

I said the same thing about th 3.0 that more i use it the stronger it got

[@iitzGrimz]

If you could only pic 2 for a setup which two would be best. Black widow 3.0, hammer effect and IQ tour ruby.

[@brunsnick]

3.0 - Effect

[@iitzGrimz]

@@brunsnick just ordered both thank you sir

[@brunsnick]

You will enjoy that combo immensely! 🙌🏻

[@mrkttrdr2919]

thanks for the comparison, how about the color of the ball, does it have any effect? Ha!

[@brunsnick]

Badum tssss 🥁

[@mikes1430]

Could you do a review where you keep ball inside around 10? 15?

[@brunsnick]

Nope, not on this pattern.

[@Stach23]

I absolutely despise the Effect for taking all the hype and glory away from the 3.0. I just got mine a month ago, and it's only been out for 2 months, but now it's old news already thanks to the Effect.

[@brunsnick]

Wouldn't say old news, Widows are in their own class and the 3.0 is a solid strong ball vs this skid flip ball. Both exist in harmony.

[@michaelduck7818]

Hope I like it!! I'm ready to own one!

[@thelunarwave30]

Love the shirt Where can I get one?

[@brunsnick]

www.insidebowling.com/collections/brunsnick right here, thank you for asking!

[@jamesmcfarland7718]

Is the mass bias above the cg on the Effect?

[@brunsnick]

No

[@gregmuncy4233]

I need a good first ball out of bag. Which one?

[@brunsnick]

Depends how you bowl. 👍🏻

[@remington1439]

Man I’ve been waiting for this ball battle. Got neither one of these ‘ leaning towards the hammer Effect. Well the hammer to me is early from the effect is. But man that effect hits harder. Tuff decision nick

[@mythoughtsarefreedom]

I would like a shirt!

[@brunsnick]

Awesome! www.insidebowling.com/collections/brunsnick check out the site!

Just dropped my 3.0 off to get drilled today! I pick it up tomorrow! 🕷

[@nordattack]

This was the comparison I was hoping to see. Question: Which is better in your opinion for going straight with. And when I say straight, I mean right to left or up a board.

[@brunsnick]

A very shiny Effect.

[@nordattack]

@@brunsnick Thank you!

[@johntcz]

OK, so which one are you throwing when there’s heavier oil?

[@brunsnick]

Probably start with 3.0 until it gets to be too much too soon and go to Effect. A very solid 1-2 punch.

[@johntcz]

Will do!

[@user-ts7ul4ei5j]

What is your tilt?

[@brunsnick]

13ish usually

[@duronj77]

​@@brunsnick where does the Scorpion fit in between these two? Thinking it's kinda in-between bench mark. Effect is so versatile though I might put others away. 😂. I got all 3 now 😊. I threw 278 with the Effect my new favorite ball.

[@cyan0xide]

ive had non bowling related injury after injury and its just awful not bowling for so long its all i wanna do

[@theobserver9565]

3.0 vs Hitter?

[@user-tx1pe4ep6g]

dont choose, just go with both. This is the only logical solution.

[@mbberry135]

OK now do a video where You shoot out the Effect vs the Black Widow 3.0 but in 13 lbs where they have the same core an near identical coverstocks. Sincerely Mike B. B. From Philly, P.A. U.S.A.

[@mbberry135]

Pretty Pleae BrunsNick!

[@nmF14T]

Black widow probably will roll out more likey than the effect

[@mikegreen2078]

The effect really moves at the back end and the pins explode and that look wonder for a 70 year old rookie bowler 😊

[@levihayes5365]

Can we get effect vs bw 2.0?

[@brunsnick]

Likely no.

[@robertarmstrong2323]

This is funny. I just bought 3.0, my bro bought effect

[@Reclaimer77]

A pin-down setup on the Black Widow 3.0 will give you the exact same "continuous" shape as the Hammer Effect, for a LOT less money. The Effect is overpriced imo. But a pin-up setup on the Widow? Will do things the Effect just cannot.

[@brunsnick]

Coverstocks still matter, while they are close on the fresh, as the friction takes over, the Effect will be better suited than the 3.0.

[@Reclaimer77]

@@brunsnick Nick I'm blown away you replied to me. Learned SO much watching you. Still struggling with the "hook" but getting better. Had my Widow for maybe 2 months now. I got it because my Rhino just couldn't hook at all on oily league nights. But on the dry? Well you have a point because I've never gotten more Brooklyn's in my life. I went pin-up, wish I went pin-down, but I'll get the hang of it. I'm not speed and rev dominant, yet. Great video!

[@newbloodink]

Shoulda did the 2.0Hy instead GOAT v GOAT

[@boober42]

Love the looks of the effect. My son absolutely loves his!!! Finished 6th.
