THE KING IS HERE! | Hammer Black Widow 3.0 | The Hype

[@Thevendorshow]

As soon as I heard about the release of this ball I looked for your video. So glad to see this here. Thank you.

[@TheBrinkjr2]

Same here 😂

[@euphobass3998]

I bought this ball after league Wednesday night and it is a beast!! My very first Widow ever and I had to learn to control it!! I’m a 2-finger bowler and it is my most aggressive ball, yet! I bowled better every game. First gave was 144, second was 177, last game was 226. Can’t wait till next week’s league!!💪🏾💪🏾

[@ALFAJERKBFH]

I can't wait to watch this after work. I'm a HUGE fan of the Widows🕷️

[@CliftonDon74]

I need one. My friends have them and they bang, but nobody has the 2.0 Hybrid. I think the 3.0 may be too much for me to handle, unless I get it drilled pin down. 👍

[@ALFAJERKBFH]

@@CliftonDon74 The 2.0 Hybrid is definitely the way to go. It sure helped me 👍

[@EdTechGC]

Amazing unbiased unfiltered review of the Blackwidow 3.30. I've already bought mine, and it looks like it is going to take some getting used to. I am still kicking myself for getting rid of my purple hammer. Oh well.

[@chrisdavis4665]

I’m thinking about putting a short pin layout on mine just to keep my angles straighter

[@taysdad45]

The color scheme on this ball reminds me of the first Hammer ball I ever bought, the Hawg Wild….and that Hawg series before Brunswick took over, was just like what the Black Widow series is now. Thanks for this review, very informative!

[@seanliff2505]

That ball did you dirty! It is definitely strong. I'd say I would go with the Envy Tour because it keeps everything a bit smoother and can handle a wider range of oil patterns. That is the type of ball you use when you see people having rooster-tails of oil going down the lane... huge volume! Great video!!

[@michaelfinley9988]

It will be interesting to compare this BW 3.0 and the Harsh Reality.

[@traveling.down.the.road56]

@michaelfinley, I bought the Harsh Reality ball as soon as it was released and decided to also get the Hammer Black Widow 3.0, about two weeks ago. I bowled a new personal best score game and series with the Harsh Reality the first week I had it, 252 and 791 from 230, 232, & 229. This was during league play and my average is 164. I got a lesson from the local PBA member, pro shop owner before having my Black Widow 3.0 drilled about ten days ago and have been working on learning how to be consistent with it, until today while practicing. In my fifth game I started with a strike, followed by a spare, and then all strikes to finish with my new personal best score of 280! What got me even more excited was that I had two more strikes to start the next game, for a total of twelve strikes in a row. I’m 68 and just started bowling again after a 35 year break due to injuries and two back surgeries. For the first time I feel like a 300 game is within my reach with these two new balls, the Harsh Reality and the Black Widow 3.0.

[@SuperFatPainterMan81]

The One Encore and Remix also a ton of bang for your buck imo. Got both drilled up last month. Sanded my remix to 2k to use as my big solid asymm.

[@erichesche1602]

Could you please compare 3.0 vs. extreme envy

[@donlinsky7588]

I have the Envy, I am curious myself which hooks more.

[@remington1439]

Would it be stronger than the jackal last weeks show? After seeing this Charles is right a 5” pin and a stage two polish. Yeah man. 16:16 oh man I thought we were going to see the best carry

[@cheeksmcgee5250]

If you would've carried that 10 pin in the 8th frame, I was going to yell at the screen like I'm watching a football game 😂😂😂😂 That ball looks great!!!!

[@gregdolgner275]

I love your videos on bowling balls. Iwas looking at getting the Hammer Black Widow 3.0. Am left handed and I believe you drill your balls using your finger tips only. I haven't bowled in 25 years and I normally have my ball drilled to my second joint. Am in my mid 70's now and I was thinking about getting a 12# ball. I like where you say the starting point on the lane 20, 22,25 ect. For me it would be moving to the right instead of the left which you move. if I get the 3.0 would I get the same reaction with drilling the ball to the second joint compared to finger tip? Is getting the 3.0 the right ball I should be getting?Am just bowling for fun with a group of people. Thanks for your video!!!!

[@TheHype-Bowling]

If this is the first ball. I would jump straight to a widow. I would go for a ocean Vibe or a Hustle M&M to get an idea of works for you. Jumping to one of the strongest coverstocks on the market I think can be a disadvantage. If you have multiple balls already than yeah you could grab one. The Widow might force you out of your comfort zone. If you don’t want to move left this might not be the right ball.

[@TheWuky22]

@@TheHype-Bowling You mean he SHOULDN’T jump to a Black Widow as his first ball.

[@TypicalAllstar]

So what’s the shammy do? Does it spread the oil on the ball or remove it I’m pretty new to the game bought my first ball last summer and now I’m looking to get my second. Think the bw hybrid! Current ball is a tropical surge that’s all I got for now

[@ARsAndGlocksOhMy]

It takes the oil off. If you don't, it will gradually hook less and less. I've seen them demonstrate this with Throwbot. Always wipe the ball off before every shot, unless you're throwing a plastic spare ball, that you don't want to hook.

[@stonejr74]

Do a review of the black widow 3.0 and the extreme Envy

[@gregdolgner275]

Thanks for the feed back

[@mikeseabrook3380]

It would be awesome to see your Hammer Black Widow 3.0 with the new TruCut Gloss on it to smooth it out!!

[@TheVicsinner]

Will you compare ot to the violent or brutal collision? I hear the numbers are similar to the Dark Code as far as RG and differential. That'd be something to see as well. I'm actually thinking about this as my first gas mask core ball.

[@TheHype-Bowling]

Definitely thinking about this versus a number of other balls including the brutal collision.

[@emperorking900]

Did I hear you say you're a Jan 30th birthday? My Aquarius brother! We share birthdays! I never log in but I watch pretty much all your videos. Been watching since you only had a few subscribers. Love your reviews and hustle, man! Also love seeing you pop up all over in other channels, drinking in the content like the rest of us bowling nerds. Really happy to see this channel blowing up and your growth. 🤩😎 The 3.0 looks insane but have you seen any deterioration in performance with HK-22 solids? I realize there's only been the Brutal and I think one of the Vibes. However, my experience with the Brutal Collision was that it was the Jesus Christ of solids coming back from everywhere. Probably the best Solid I've ever thrown. But after about 100 games, the performance really wore off. Which makes me concerned about future HK-22 solids. Also the fact that B7 hasn't released many HK-22 Solids despite putting it on virtually all of their pearls. HK-22 on pearls is God Tier, you're only prying my Katana and Paragon from my cold dead hands. But, we're worried about the performance loss in solids. Crazy thought? Your opinion and experience?

[@lilhawk36]

[@Rocketman9mm]

I love my 2.0 hybrid. 5:50 that's pretty much my shot with it.

[@srujay]

how does this compare to the mindset and the extreme envy? pls reply!

[@TheHype-Bowling]

3.0 is more down lane, the mindset and extreme are smoother downlane in relation to the 3.0 monster.

[@newbloodink]

Theyre not trying to prove a point they're solitifiying their crown in the game with banger after banger

[@nathanielhale9278]

Which bowling ball is better for flatter house shots the 3.0 or the extreme envy

I’m going to go with the extreme

[@CliftonDon74]

Thanks Charles! I saw your short earlier today. You couldn't smile any bigger! I nnow 2024 only started, but the BW 3.0 Solid looks like it is going to be a favorite this season. Question: Why did you stop the "alot" counter only after the first 5-6? LoL 😂

[@TheHype-Bowling]

Aye we just dug in right there that’s all. But who knows you may see it again.

[@CliftonDon74]

@@TheHype-Bowling the counter was fun.

[@tigertolliver5199]

Hey Charles, I'm glad you said specific. Instead of pacific you know what I mean?😊

[@Reclaimer77]

So I just started bowling a lot last year and the pro shop guy put me with a Bruns' Rhino. Apparently that's a weak beginners ball. I'm a kinda low-rev bowler I guess so on the dry lanes, especially if I play right I can get some decent movement into the pocket. However on league nights with fresh oil I struggle really bad. I'm now looking to get a stronger hook monster ball. Is this the one for me??

[@TheHype-Bowling]

This is definitely an option. Or even the two newer balls the Columbia 309 Pure Madness. If down lane motion is what your looking for you could lean towards a more responsive ball like archetype hybrid or Virtal energy black out. The best in between ball would be the Absolute Power.

[@michaeljesiolowskiuk8210]

So if you had to choose the black widow 3.0 or hammer effect which you like better?

[@TheHype-Bowling]

I like them equally. I probably try to throw the effect more!

[@AMERICOBECKS]

What do you think between this 3.0 and the katana strike wich ball do you think is stronger and hits harder, thanks great videos

[@TheHype-Bowling]

3.0 is stronger. Stronger coverstock front to back. Katana striker will have a littler more motion down lane. Hits harder? If your bowling on more volume the widow could hit harder, if the lanes are more transitioned the katana could hit harder.

[@travis4k]

Alot. Can't wait to see the Scorpion Low Flare video 🙌🏼

[@timothypoburs9269]

If you were to throw this or the extreme envy as your big ball for oil which would you throw?

[@TheHype-Bowling]

On a house shot. Widow, on flatter condition extreme envy

[@JeffD-i9k]

How do you get your jopo inserts out so easily? Mine are new and they are pretty difficult to remove without a tool

[@jaleelbrewer1586]

I'm surprised I haven't saw more of these in league so far. I'm deciding btw this or the Eternity Pi now, wanted a solid asym. Definitely have always been Curious to own a BW though!

[@jerrystephens7179]

Is this the same as the overseas Black Widow Toxin? It's also an HK-22 solid that's described as stronger than the 2.0 solid.

[@OpticDetailingKY]

We need that 2.0 vs 3.0 solid review

[@erickuhn6561]

How does the 3.0 solid compare to the 2.0 solid? I have the 2.0 solid and even at 500 grit it still hits hard. I assume the 2.0 should be a bit earlier without hk and hk 3.0 may be a little stronger and corner a little harder but not as much as the 2.0 hybrid.

[@TheHype-Bowling]

This ball is definitely a step up from the 2.0 much more ball. That can handle more volume. Angular it still can be seen as that.

[@erickuhn6561]

Is the 3.0 more angular than the 2.0? Which one do you prefer? Thanks for your opinion!

[@chriswabeke]

How would you compare the 3.0 to the Dark Knight?

[@TheHype-Bowling]

Nothing close at all. Hk22 solid makes this ball a step from all other widows in existence.

[@stompingpeak2043]

Would the 2.0 be the same or close if you hit it with pads(Spinner 500,1000,2000)?

[@davidechevarria4552]

Would you say this is a step up from the Phaze 2?

I started this season with a 155 average and now it’s about 166, and that new personal best was a 252, and a 691 series (230, 232, & 229). I also got a Black Widow 3.0 and got a lesson before I had it drilled ten days ago. Today while practicing, in my fifth game with the Widow 3.0, I got another personal best score of 280, and had two more strikes in the next game, for a total of twelve strikes in a row!
