Great Ball! By Kid Jersey from St. Louis, MO
Reviewed on: 7/26/2009
Unverified Pros:Great Weight, Flawless Surface, Comfortable Grip Best Uses:Tournaments, Local Bowling Alley Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend This is a great ball for bowlers with slower ball speed. A lot of times you see guys with slow ball speed having trouble once the lanes start to break down and this ball is a great answer to that. You can still shoot your comfortable line without haveing to put a lot of extra speed on the ball causeing yourself to pull the ball off target. I bowl in a dryer house so I go to this ball first in league but I also bowl a lot of tournaments and this ball makes it out of the bag more times then not. I a comfortable shooting second arrow and out to the right and this ball gives me that option. Was this review helpful to you? Yes / No- You may also flag this review.

Hammer Razyr By Anonymous from South Florida
Reviewed on: 11/17/2009
Verified Reviewer Pros:Comfortable Grip, Great Weight, Flawless Surface, Attractive Design Best Uses:Tournaments, Local Bowling Alley, Upgrade Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I really like this ball. Today was the first day of bowling with it and I was impressed with it. It is designed for dryer lanes which is the reason for my purchase of it. It has more of a straight line to the pocket, so that will make it a good ball for spare shooting, in my opinion, also. Was this review helpful to you? Yes / No- You may also flag this review.

Excellent Ball By Butcher from Ashland, Ky
Reviewed on: 3/26/2010
Unverified Pros:Attractive Design, Comfortable Grip, Great Weight, Flawless Surface Best Uses:Tournaments, Local Bowling Alley, Upgrade Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend This ball is excellent when you want to slow your ball down for more controlled accuracy. When lanes are dry you cant beat this ball. In oil, i just slow the speed down, maybe move a board or 2. Even with slower speed this ball still hits very hard for me.I got a 15 pound and it hits very solid, no complaints at all.Also, in heavy oil excellent spare ball for those nasty 10 pins. I recommend this ball 100% , no question. Was this review helpful to you? Yes / No- You may also flag this review.

Great Ball for the Money By Mark from Upstate Ny
Reviewed on: 12/12/2009
Verified Reviewer Pros:Attractive Design Best Uses:Local Bowling Alley Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I purchased this ball after reading reviews about slower speed bowlers that put a good amount of hand in it. This past week I used this ball in the 3rd game once the backend started drying up. I ended up with a 299 game. I like the idea that this goes long but doesn't over react once it hits the dry. It is a very controllable bowling ball. It also seems to keep the pins low to the ground. I average around 14.5 for my speed. For the price this is a no brainer purchase. You just need to know when and when not to use it. Was this review helpful to you? Yes / No- You may also flag this review.

Tough enough By Strike King from PA

I had this drilled and was told your not gonna get allot of hook out of it as a L/H bowler .Well I primarily use this ball to pick up tough spares but have been using it lately on med oily surface lane conditions and as my strike ball also during league play . My avg is 179 and has not faultered with this ball at all . Get pick up for the money ! Was this review helpful to you? Yes / No- You may also flag this review.

There's a little hook in this ball By Bartman from Cadott, WI
Reviewed on: 12/29/2009
Verified Reviewer Pros:Great Weight Best Uses:Local Bowling Alley Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I bought this ball for when the alleys really dry out (like for that 3rd game on league night) and it's working well for that. The Razyr actually hooks a little more than I thought, so I've even been using it some when my Sauce is just too much, or when I'm a little off on my game. The Raxyr is pretty forgiving. I picked this ball up for about $65 [...] At that price, you can't beat the Razyr. Was this review helpful to you? Yes / No- You may also flag this review.
