Ruthless

Take No Prisoners!

There are winners and losers; no one remembers the losers!

JUICED SOLID COVERSTOCK

The Juiced coverstock is responsive by nature. This solid version, with its 500/1000/2000 Abralon finish, will create stronger overall ball motion compared to the pearl version featured on the Flawless, while still offering a strong reaction at the breakpoint.

40 WATT CORE

The 40 Watt core was named after its light bulb shape and differential in the forties. You can expect medium flare potential from this core.

Ruthless uses Hammer's patent-pending carbon fiber outer core and carries Hammer's three-year warranty.

Amazing feel.

I got back into bowling a about 2 years ago and always had hand me down bowling balls. I saw the Ruthless and it was over. I am a 2 fingers bowler. This ball has great control. 2 weeks ago I got my first 300 and my highest series of my career with a 791. This ball is worth every penny spent.

Takes a little time to get used to...but worth it

Lefty Here and glad I am, as I usually have clean untracked oil....

Anywhooots, I usually throw a Red Hammer Vibe and was so used to how it rolled thru the front and back ends.

Now that I have a Ruthless, and after many difficult times/conditions on how to throw, I start a little closer to the line and change nothing else....solid front end...and blasts thru the back end and I am happy with my purchase. Little tweaks here and there...but overall happy!

BTW, I still use the Red Hammer Vibe as needed!

Ruthless!!!

The ne Ruthless is a must have bench mark ball. It is a great value for the price, very versatile, and not overly angular off of the back of the pattern.
I drilled mine pin over bridge. (5" from PAP) this is the same way I drilled my Flawless. It allows me to start with this ball on the fresh and blends the wet-dry patterns.

Hammer Ruthless

The Hammer Ruthless bowling ball, for me, has been great on fresh oil patterns, allows me to play up the boards or even migrate inside later and still get the continuous roll down the lane. It's classified as a mid-performance ball, but it plays like a high-performance ball.

Ruthless - Lives up to its name

Right Handed
Rev Rate – 380-400
Ave Ball Speed – 15.6
Tilt – 22.70
The Hammer Ruthless with the Juiced coverstock lives up to its name. I have my Ruthless drill with pin up and to the right of the fingers.. My Axis Point is X=4 1/8” Y=15/16”. It is just overall strong, midland and the backend. It gets through the heads clean, but just annihilates the pins. This ball will always be in my bag and should be in yours as well. If you want a strong symmetrical ball, this one is for you.
