Now, I am SO glad I took the leap and drilled up the new Hammer Black Widow Mania! Having never thrown a Black Widow, I wanted to see what made this ball so different.

Now, Hammer has introduced the newest innovation in the Effect line, the Hammer Special Effect! The new Special Effect has the successful new Huntsman core wrapped in the HK22-Cohesion solid coverstock with…
