Black Widow 3.0


 


We did it again!

Improving an already incredible line isn’t easy, but we managed to do it again with the new Black Widow 3.0. Each Widow release in recent years has been more popular than the previous and has taken ball reaction to new levels, and the Black Widow 3.0 will not be an exception. The Black Widow 3.0 is an incredible complement to the Widow 2.0 Hybrid; it has surface and tractions more in oil, making it a great ball to pull out of your bag first. The new Black Widow 3.0 is a solid reactive, much like the Black Widow 2.0, but the cover has been upgraded with a solid version of HK22 and has the same out-of-the-box surface as the Black Widow 2.0. HK22 gives the new Black Widow an advantage on medium to oily lanes, and Hammer fans will be excited when they see that it’s the traditional black and orange Hammer colors.

    Amazing..after 10 years I am back to Hammer Bowling balls

    Lat in the2022/2023 season I bought first Hammer bowling ball in 10 years. The Black Widow 2.0. I bumped my average up 12 pins (202 to 214). When that ball started dying I thought long and hard about getting another 2.0 but ended up getting the 3.0 This ball seemed to hook a bit more but was not as angular as the 2.0. I finished the 2023/2024 season with 218. 5 weeks into 2024 i am at 236. I've made some changes in my game which I am sure helped me out. I've been working out so I am stronger. I am throwing the ball a bit faster and getting a few more revs on it. I am getting out of the ball more consistently. But Dang...I got to give some credit to this ball (both the 2.0 and 3.0).

    Great versatility

    3rd game thrown was a 300 with this one. This ball is so versatile as I can play it "deep and steep" with a ton of angle, or I can play it "skinny" with a little less hand in it. This ball is a killer on several of the house patterns I roll and I landed a 719 the first night with it on Carbon. Right now, I am throwing 16 pins over my average when using this ball across 3 different patterns on 3 different leagues, Carbon, Main Street, and Helium. This one also gets saturated quickly after about 10 games and needs a little "sauna" time to get it back to being reliable. In tournaments, I bring this ball no matter what as I can throw it on long, short, and even flat patterns.

    Love the Ball!!!

    Great ball for more oily conditions. A way better step up than my past ball. Looks good and feels good too. Highly recommend for people looking for stronger ball.

    Great

    I like this ball on strike's, but this ball does not hook that much on a 42-45ft oiling pattern

    Amazing

    The widow, is perfect. I am beyond happy with its performance and how much it has changed my game. I am like a little kid every time we go to the alley.
