Customer Rating:      Summary: Performs to spec - 14 pounds and above Comment: Great ball, and does exactly what it is designed to do. Be aware that the 12 pound ball is a little different and not as aggressive, however. My wife has been a little disappointed in the break she has been getting.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Versatile Ball... Comment: This is a very versatile bowling ball. I originally bought this ball for use on a little bit drier lanes and I was actually a little concerned the first time I used it because it had a little more backend than I expected. But, after a game I realized that this ball was right for me. I didn't want to carry a pro shop worth of bowling balls with me to the league, and this ball is strong on just about every condition I've come across with only slight adjustments. The best was when several other better bowlers were struggling with the lane conditions one night and this ball was just locking into the pocket for me. I loved the frustrated looks I got that night. I've increased my avg by over 10 pins with the help of this ball's versatility.
Is it perfect on every condition?... no. But if I only had one ball and didn't know what the lanes were like, I'd take this one. It gives me good movement in oil and when the lanes are a little dry or breaking down. And of course, it hits like a hammer. I started out bowling with a BVP Nemesis and loved the hitting power that ball had... this one is the only ball I've used since that beat it's power. Bottom line: it's just my type of ball... Versatile and nasty on contact.
Customer Rating:      Summary: This Ball Has Bite.... Comment: I have recently become hooked on bowling and with all the different products out there it can become quite confusing, so of course you need to know what is the best out there. The Black Widow Pearl by Hammer is one of the best balls you can buy. I am still in the process of getting my hook down and this ball just crushes the pins, even if you throw it off. I highly recommend the Black Widow Pearl for both beginners and professionals....
