I love my pitch black, once I figured out how to use urethane I really really like the motion that the ball gives me. I like it so much I use it on house, lets me control wet/dry and doesn’t force me inside, I can just camp on the track for the whole set. I feel like I get a pretty liberal miss room even on sport when I can throw urethane. I get plenty of push if I grab it and some recover if I miss out. Love the stuff, plus I’m a lefty 😎 ready for the comments behind my back at the tournaments

Pitch Purple is not a true urethane like the Hammers and the Umotion amongst others. Pitch Purple has reactive in it's mix so it is very much like a hybrid between the two. There is a Tank that is similar, but I do not remember which it is.

Thanks Brad and Kyle for the Video! Can't agree more on the Purple Urethane as it seems to be my favorite ball. My rev rate is lower than most So I am able to stay right and increase ball speed as the lanes dry to constantly continue to Hammer the Pocket. My Hammer Black urethane is a great spare ball but without the rev rate of many of the pro's not ideal for me to use as a strike ball. Curious what your top Reactive balls are?

[@masterhead4888]

hey guys, long time subscriber and fan. Question? The topic of speed changing when it comes to using Urethane was not addressed in this video and my 60 odd years of bowling has taught me that 'ball speed' is different with all the newer and newer balls and coverstocks. When Kyle is talking about that uncomfortable 16 board plus area where the Purple Hammer won't come back the way he wants it that's the time ball speed needs to be addressed I think, (sorry guys, I'm a retired teacher, it was a good living). I'm picking up my purple hammer this week, I'll let you know how I like it.

[@Sproutt]

1. Burned house shot, 2. Purple hammer over third arrow 3. Equals plenty if hook.

[@jakherbertson4778]

The thing i love about urethane is I can put as much surface as I want on it and it doesn't jump off the friction too quickly. Like Kyle said, it allows me to be aggressive with it as much as I want. I tend to keep my blue hammer at about 500 grit for the short sport shorts, Purple hammer usually about 1000 (in terms of true cut) for me and if i need to change the surface i will. Purple hammer is just a monster. Love them both :D

[@AverageLeagueHack]

what it does moves more oil from the heads to the breakpoint and beyond. You could get that motion with weaker or short pin reactive and not destroy the pattern.

[@TheBobdickens]

I always have two with me. I won 5 though. 2 purple hammers, pitch purple, natural and natural pearl

[@Brentster1953]

Seems like it was early 1980s when I saw guys hurling the blue and purple balls. Colors were a little more prominent. Must have been Hammers, since the colors are the same. I used a Johnny Petraglia LT-48 for a spell back then. It was like a sponge, with the oil track that returned... My high school graduation gift was a Dick Weber 5-star in 1971, from mom & dad. In Pensacola Navy comms school, it was a hefty walk from the barracks to the lanes on base, but I went home on leave to Calif. and brought that ball back to Florida. When stationed on a little base in nowhere, Morocco, a ball on the rack was the same Dick Weber as mine, drilled close to my hand!! About 2000 a local PBA pro resurfaced and regripped my ball. Glad i did!! Kyle, does Brad really think he's better than you...?

How to make adjustments (board position, angle, speed, etc..) in Short, Medium, and Long pattern throughout the games or when the lane transitions. I would really appreciate if you or anyone who is reading this share their expertise. Thank you so much!

[@tmilwaukee]

I'm 69 years old ... recently got back into bowling after a 20 year layoff and you young fellas have really helped me with these videos. Using mostly a Pitch Black in my leagues. I have lost some speed over the years and would like some tips on increasing it. Used to average 195-200 in leagues, but now I'm down around 175.

[@dcccvislimbone9147]

If you're only doing a typical 4 step approach then you could add another two steps to your approach that should help you a bit with ball speed/release. Depending on the pattern I usually have a typical 4 step approach and my ball speed averages around 16mph. Sometimes I need to speed it up a bit so I'll transition to a 6 step approach and with it I pick up more speed during my slide. It allows me to up my ball speed to about 17.5-18mph.

[@adventuresfloridatothailan5217]

Black widow urethane stands up much sooner because of the easy rotating gas mask core and it's solid instead of pearl.

I’ve never liked to used Urethane, the reason is the the ball just falls off my left hand to much when I bowl. This normally causes me to drop the ball off my fingers or the ball isn’t consistent on how it rolls. (I’m two handed by the way also got the purple hammer)

[@coopergates9680]

[@dcccvislimbone9147]

Instead of moving left and continuing to miss the pocket I would've moved right with the feet and with the target. Left foot around board 20 and throw it out over board 7 at the arrows. I feel like that would've been slamming pocket.

[@bowlingxp8345]

Nice video. I would clarify though (as per observations) that Purple Hammer is not plain urethane. Even on Hammer's website, they state it has a pear additive. So it is probably at least a urethane hybrid of some sort, if not just a mild reactive cover.

I have not seen any evidence or test that proves that it is 100% plain urethane and thus contains no plasticizer. What have YOU found. I am interested.

[@ChevyRedneckGFX]

@@bowlingxp8345 i literally have one, and so does my friend. They don't absorb oil. That's the number one flag that your ball has plasticizer. Purple Hammer is a Pearlized Urethane cover, but it doesn't absorb oil . It's hard to explain how it's"pearlized" yet still urethane and doesn't absorb oil. A good way to compare is like a Storm Mix, although that's way way under the specific purple hammer potential. If you're thinking it can't possibly have overall hook potential like it does as a urethane you're sadly mistaken. In fact the Widow Urethane (Solid urethane cover) hooks over more boards than the purple hammer. The Purple Hammer just clears the fronts very well and has good downlane motion that gives it a hard hitting roll.

[@bowlingboi9633]

Brad and Kyle, I have a question My friend told me that when I bowl with Urethane I shouldn't wipe it off, but after we finish bowling I should clean it, he said that if I wipe it off I won't get carry down and the Urethane won't mess other people's lines up if I wipe it off, is that all true?, should I really just clean off my ball after I finish bowling instead of wiping the ball off after each shot like a normal ball?, what is the right thing to do?

[@bowlingxp8345]

Why did he tell you not to wipe it off? You should do what is best for you, not others.

[@aimxiety6340]

The ball still picks up oil on it's way down the lane, so even if you wipe it off you still move the oil from the shot you just threw, but you also guarantee consistent reaction in the oil by cleaning the surface before each shot. Urethane shape is so reliant on its surface that if you arent wiping it off between each shot you're killing your own ball reaction and hurting your chance to score.

[@MGW1974]

I'd clean it, the purpose of urethane is to handle short patterns and to drag oil down to the dry area where you can use it later with a different ball. Just my 2¢.👍
