I just bought this ball for the new bowling season and also a sport shot league. I just used it for the first time after my Friday night league meeting and cannot wait to see what scores I can put up with it. This ball is perfect on house shots, and I am very interested to see how it matches up on short oil patterns for my sport shot league.
Love this ball. This ball is my go to for short patterns, patterns I have to play a very tight line, burnt out house shots, corner spares and for when everything on the lanes goes to 5h!t and I need a guaranteed line of 12 to 9 into the pocket. Goes with me everywhere.
I love this ball! It’s works well on the House Shot pattern. Very clean and smooth. Had a very good 800 series game.

Control, Control, and more Control. That’s what I feel about the NU Blue Hammer. With a fresh cover, the ball hooks quite a bit and is very smooth overall. When you need to control the downlane motion, but get the ball to read early, but are NOT comfortable using urethane, this is a great go-to ball. The cover does shine pretty quick, so it is suggested to keep the cover clean and scuff the surface when needed. If you have a bit of side tilt, you can definitely swing the lane a bit, but you’ll likely use this to keep your angles closed.
This ball destroys house shot with its clean and continuous motion
