January 16, 2025 was the release day for the new Hammer 3D Offset Assault, the 3rd in the line of the 3D Offset Hammers. The new Assault features the same High Rev Offset asymmetric core found in prior 3D Offsets wrapped by a bright red HK-22 cohesion hybrid cover. Box finish is 2000 Siaair. I've tried the Assault on fresh and leftover THS. The layout on the ball I used was 50 x 4 1/2 x 25.
To my eye, like prior 3D Offset releases, the motion with the Assault is earlier and forward off the spot. I think that with this cover/surface overall the Assault covers more boards than the prior ones. That being said, the motion to my eye is definitely rolly and forward off the spot. In testing the new Assault, I had to use a considerable amount of rotation to get the ball to respond properly as our house shot has lighter volume and longer distance. From all that I can see, the Assault is definitely a ball for the fresh on higher volumes of oil. I also think the Assault will excel on medium to shorter distance patterns.
As noted above, the Hammer 3D Offset Assault is available.. See your local pro shop for more information!
