Hammer Bubblegum Vibe
I gave the Bubblegum Vibe 5 stars because I believe it is the best of the Vibe series so far. I've had 4 or 5 of this series and this is the strongest overall in my opinion. Then the Bubblegum color really looks good going down the lane. It is complimented by the yellow pin and lettering which makes it easy to see my roll. The CT-Max pearl & HK22 give this ball alot of hitting power. You get a lot of bang for your buck with this beauty. You are going to see a lot of these on league ball racks in the coming season.

Hammer Bubblegum Vibe
Recently, I was able to punch up 2 new Hammer Bubblegum Vibes. Vibes have ALWAYS had a place in my bag ever since Hammer introduced the first Vibe (Purple Pearl Vibe) in 2004. Anyway, the new Bubblegum Vibe features the identical hourglass shape symmetric core wrapped by a hot pink HK-22 CT Max Pearl cover. Box finish is Factory Compound over 2000 Siaair. I drilled this one with my favorite pin down layout, 60 x 5 x 70 and I went over the ball with a 4000 Siaair pad on the spinner. I've always trusted Vibes for a medium to lighter volume pattern symmetric core ball option. For whatever reason, the Vibe core/cover combination Hammer has made over the years has matched up well with my game. At first blush, the Bubblegum Vibe will be no exception. For comparison purposes, I took out the last 3 Vibe releases...the 2022 Ocean Vibe, the 2023 Radioactive Vibe and the 2024 Arctic Vibe. They are all drilled with the exact same layout and I went over each of them with a 4000 Siaair pad so they would have the same surface. I was bowling on mostly fresh THS. The difference in motion among the various Vibes is evident. The Radioactive Vibe, for me, was the slowest response Vibe of all of them. I think the greatest length was with the Ocean Vibe. The Arctic and Bubblegum are pretty close but to my eye, the Bubblegum has a bit quicker and stronger response off the spot. Admittedly in the videos I shot for my Facebook page, I threw the Bubblegum Vibe about 2 right of the other Vibes but even on shots where I placed the Bubblegum Vibe on top of the Arctic Vibe, the Bubblegum Vibe showed a sharper and stronger response downlane. If you liked previous Vibes, you'll definitely like this one. Again, I believe the best use of the Bubblegum Vibe will be for medium to lighter volume patterns or broken down patterns and I believe that many styles of bowlers can effectively use this Vibe. Plus…it’s just a great looking bowling ball! The Hammer Bubblegum Vibe is available tomorrow...see your local pro shop for more information!

Customer Questions & Answers | Reviews
Question:
Does it have a curve?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Yes, this ball will have a medium hook potential.
Question:
How is this ball with a slower reaction?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
This bowling ball is designed to read later on the lane which will be a good fit for someone with a slower ball speed. If you have a high ball speed, it would be better to get a ball that can read earlier so that it can grip quick enough but with a slower speed, you do not want the ball to react earlier or it may hook too much too early.
Question:
What kind of core in 13 pound?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
There is a different weight block in the 12 and 13lb weights than there is in the 14-16lb weights. To see what the weight block looks like on the 12-13lb weight, look through the pictures of this ball and it should show you the different weight blocks. The RG values on the 13lb ball are RG (2.585) DIFF (0.040) .
