I've been fighting carry down for the last month and just couldn't find a ball / line combination that worked consistently. I read all the reviews on the Hammer Effect and it just seemed like it would give me the earlier reaction with a strong back end I was looking for. Drilled it up right before league and with 5 practice shots shoot a 297 for game 1. I grabbed it on the last shot or it would have been a 300. Ended up with a 787 series. This ball is clean through the heads and an absolute monster on the back end, but very controllable and consistent. Even some of my errant shots still found the pocket and carried.

The Hammer Effect is an aggressive, angular pearl. Even with good length, it does not easily squirt past the breakpoint. Bowlers with slower speed can use a pin down layout to round out the reaction. Very nice continuation and hit.
I've had this ball since it came out. At first the ball was great. My 2nd game with it was like a 235. Now it doesn't last 1 game. If I leave a ten pin, I adjust and leave a 7 or a 4 pin. if it slams the pocket occassionally I leave a solid 9. Average has gone down by 25 pins. Last night was a 472 series, when I'm use to 600's and above.
This ball is absolutely amazing. I bought this ball looking for something stronger on the back end and it did not disappoint! I’m a rare one finger bowler and I put a lot of speed and generate high revs through this ball. I had this ball drilled pin up and the hook is insane while remaining powerful on the back end. It’s a must buy! Honestly I’m selfish and want them to stop production immediately! I want to keep this beauty and beast of a ball all to my self!
