Great ball, great price!! By gipperkid from Central OH, USA
Reviewed on: 10/31/2011 Verified Reviewer Pros:Flawless Surface, Comfortable Grip, Great Weight, Attractive Design Best Uses:Local Bowling Alley, Upgrade Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I just stepped back in to bowling after 16 years and I have to say this Hammer Arson is amazing. I bowled the first six weeks of my league with a borrowed Brunswick Danger HPD before switching to a Hammer. Right away I noticed an improvement. I got used to the ball after about six games and I have brought my average up 12 pins. This ball has yet to disappoint. Hit your mark and the ball does the rest. You can't go wrong with a Hammer.

Arson Makes Me Feel Like I'm Cheating By Lemon from Las Vegas, NV
Reviewed on: 11/27/2011 Verified Buyer Pros:Comfortable Grip, Constant Reactions, Attractive Design, Few 10 pins, Hooks Perfectly, Great Weight, Flawless Surface, Amazing Carry, Great looks, Max Pin Action, Sexy Strikes Cons:Too many pros Best Uses:Tournaments, Upgrade, Local Bowling Alley Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend I'm 16 years old and at 15 I carried a 200 average. I only throw Hammer, and this ball defines the reason. First day in league, I shot 717. Recently I shot 788 and bowled my best ever, 280. Because of this ball, I realize that becoming pro isn't such an impossible feat. Thank you Hammer for renewing my dreams...Nothing hits like a Hammer. Was this review helpful to you?

Great ball By Pin smasher from valdosta, ga
Reviewed on: 7/20/2011 Verified Buyer Pros:Comfortable Grip, Flawless Surface, Attractive Design, Great Weight Best Uses:Local Bowling Alley, Tournaments, Upgrade Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Bought the ball for my wife as an upgrade. It took her a couple games to get used to the power and aggressiveness of the ball but by the third game she was in the 230's. Great ball for lots of oil. Now I'm thinking of buying me one. Gotta love the way a hammer hits the pocket. Was this review helpful to you? Yes / No- You may also flag this review.

My new favorite weapon! By Joe the Plumber from PA
Reviewed on: 3/24/2012 Verified Reviewer Pros:Great Weight, Strong Backend, Smooth roll, Attractive Design, Comfortable Grip Best Uses:Medium - Heavy Oil, Upgrade Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Well I was in need of a new ball at a reasonable price and I found the Arson. I got it 2 days after I sent for it and had it drilled the same day. Today I shot with it for the first time. I am about a 170 average bowler but I just shot my series high of a 633 with a 191, 243 and 199. I am used to be very inconsistent in stringing strikes but between the strength and control I can throw consistently. This ball is absolutely amazing. I don't have many Revs but dang did this thing shoot strong to the pocket. This just took me to another level! Was this review helpful to you? Yes / No- You may also flag this review.

A Consistent Performer By Old Bowler from Martinsville, Va
Reviewed on: 4/22/2012 Verified Reviewer Pros:Flawless Surface, Great Weight, Comfortable Grip, Attractive Design Best Uses:Upgrade, Tournaments, Local Bowling Alley Describe Yourself:League Bowler Bottom Line:Yes, I would recommend this to a friend The Arson by Hammer has been a consistently good ball. (First game out of the box was a 267.) It works really well on oily lanes, and it has helped me increase my average in league play. I've used it in few tournaments, and I cannot complain about how it responds to the lanes. This is a great ball. Was this review helpful to you? Yes / No- You may also flag this review.
