  • They make a Hammer-Lite!

    Dec 24 '99
    Pros: Reliable. Comes in lighter weights
    Cons: I feel like a sissy for not using a heavier ball

    Summary: Before I suffered from "Frozen Shoulder" & had to bowl left-handed for 2 years, I used to use a heavier ball. After years of physical therapy & getting the use back of my arm, I had to go down a few pounds & get a lighter ball. I...

  • Old Timer or Good As Any?

    Jul 20 '00
    Pros: Good control, good pin actions.
    Cons: Absorbs oil, easily scratched on dry lanes.

    Summary: I am new to bowling and picked-up on this sport about two years ago. When considering my purchase for a primary ball, I asked the opinions of different shop owners for something that's good for starters. About 6 out of 10 assistants pointed out to the...

  • 300 Game

    Mar 17 '00
    Pros: Urthane Ball
    Cons: Likes urthane better than resin

    Summary: I finally got to witness a friend of mine roll a 300 game. It was great! We work together at a Bowling Alley in Johnstown, PA and we also bowl together in tournaments and for fun in our Scotch Doubles League in the summer. I have only seen him throw...

  • Faball Burgandy Hammer Review

    Jan 30 '00
    Pros: great ball, good power, clean rolling
    Cons: none

    Summary: This was my first "real" bowling ball since I got serious about bowling. I continued to use this after I replaced it with newer technology 4 years later for my spares because of its consistant hooking ability. This ball was one of the most...

  • great pin action

    Jan 19 '00
    Pros: great pin action
    Cons: expensive

    Summary: I am consider a beginner bowler and I have my own bowling ball but I am not using a hammer instead I am using a puma because I didn't know about the hammer ball until one day I saw my friend using the hammer ball. One reason why I like the hammer more...

  • Faball Hammer PC-3

    Jan 19 '00
    Pros: Consistent Roll, Inexpensive
    Cons: Very Few if any

    Summary: The Faball Hammer PC-3 is one of the best bowling balls I have ever owned.It is a 3 piece ball with a urethane cover and since I am not a big fan of the resin ball I really liked the way it performed on any condition. Since I got my PC-3 which was last...

  • A Ball for the Millenium

    Dec 31 '99
    Pros: easy to learn , long lasting, powerful hitting
    Cons: Need lots of speed on very dry conditions

    Summary: Since 1995 I have owned A Faball Burgundy Hammer and in the last five years my average has increased ten (10) pins per year. I started bowling in 1993 and threw a hard, fast straight ball and averaged in the 150s.
    When my friend Charlie gave me a...

  • Great Preforming ball

    Dec 19 '99
    Pros: gets the 10-pin out, strong hitting power
    Cons: on oily lanes, doesn't perform as well (not enough hook on the back end)

    Summary: I purchased my faball blue hammer a few years ago in order to improve my bowling game. This is the best investment I had ever made. I love the hitting power of the ball. It takes out the 10-pin on a consistent basis, and has a nice, natural hook that...

  • great

    Dec 18 '99
    Pros: none
    Cons: none

    Summary: I enjoy bowling very much now that I purchased my new hammer. It took me a while to get use to but know it feels like a part of me. I have had it for almost a year now and it really has held up great. I saw an extreme difference in my bowling score once...

  • Roll to the hole

    Nov 10 '99
    Pros: Even roll, hard hitting
    Cons: Not for every style and condition

    Summary: Fab Ball USA is back on track. The 3D Offset balls, the Nail, the Claw and now a "particle" ball. It is all about keeping up with Brunswicks! The Syntactive Sledge has a new weight block called the boomer core. It is symmetrical in shape and...

  • Ennnhh....

    Nov 10 '99
    Pros: Looks nice?
    Cons: No back end. Period.

    Summary: Unfortunately, when you pay Faball $130 for this ball, you are paying about $100 into the Faball CEO's beer fund, and about $30 for the ball.

    I may be cynical, but this ball really didn't do it for me. I roll one HEAVY hook, and this thing...

  • It's Hammer Time

    Nov 04 '99
    Pros: A solid performer, Powerful, Durable, Consistent, Suitable for various styles
    Cons: You may want a ball with more dynamic power, spin, etc.

    Summary: While schooling in Jersey some four years back, I hooked up with three friends and joined a Friday night bowling league in Trenton. I had always enjoyed hitting the lanes: the noise, fries and bowling pin shaped beers, but my involvement had otherwise...

  • Love it

    Feb 11 '07
    Pros: Consistent roll/hook, it does want ever you make it do
    Cons: Not as much backend snap at a resin ball.

    Summary: I got lucky and found two of these balls at a thrift store for 25 dollars. I had one fitted and drilled and it has been amazing. Very consistent roll and hook, I use it for a spare ball most of the time. It hooks nicely but it does not have the back
