NOT A REPEAT—A REVOLUTION IN WIDOW POWER!

The Black Widow 3.0 Dynasty was created to enhance the line by not re-creating what is already on the market but offering something new. The Black Widow 3.0 Dynasty’s HK22 Cohesion Solid cover provides more overall hook than a Black Widow 2.0 and more length and flip compared to a Black Widow 3.0. This is the strongest Black Widow to date, while complementing the big hooking oil balls like Maximum Effect, and Zero Mercy Solid as a ball to step down to. We’ve given you the Black Widow motion you’ve come to expect for 20 years, just more of it.

Black Widow 3.0 Dynasty

This is the strongest Black Widow to date. It will not disappoint. Very aggressive response yet predictable and controllable. This spider has a lot of teeth. Don't sleep on this one!!!

Hammer Widow 3.0 Dynasty

Recently, I punched the new Hammer Widow 3.0 Dynasty. Like with all Widow series balls, it features the Gas Mask asymmetric core. The coverstock is a purple HK-22 Cohesion Solid finished at 2000 Siaair. The layout used on the Widow 3.0 Dynasty is 60 x 5 x 70 and I used it in fresh THS at box surface.

I'll say it once and I'll say it again, Hammer has yet to make a Widow that I didn't like and this will be no exception. For years, Widows have always matched up well for my particular game. Even by Widow standards, this ball covers a lot of territory. For comparison purposes, I took out a Widow Mania, last year's regular Widow release drilled with a similar layout. (I know there was the Widow Tour V1 from September but that is a different ball with a modified Gas Mask core.) I put the Mania to the same surface. The difference is indeed significant between the 2 balls as the new Widow 3.0 Dynasty is about 3 boards left at the arrows. But that ever reliable Widow shape is definitely there. The Widow 3.0 Dynasty, at box surface, requires volume in the pattern. It's definitely a step down from a Zero Mercy Solid and a step up from a Widow Mania and the Widow Tour V1. I see this a touch stronger and more sideways than the Zero Mercy Pearl. Hammer has some truly great selections in their asymmetric core pieces presently. Like all Widows, I expect this Widow to match up with many different styles and rev rates. I'll try it at different surface preparations but at box surface, it will excel on higher volume patterns.

The Hammer Widow 3.0 Dynasty is readily available. See your local pro shop for more information!
