Hammer Envy Tour Bowling Ball

Don't know why I waited so long to get this because the Envy Tour is a BESAST! I've used it on heavy, medium and light oil...this ball moves no matter what! Looking forward to getting more games on it, but love that I have a ball for heavy conditions that allows me to move in and know that it will still crush the pocket.

Strong continuous ball reaction. Great for first ball out of the bag. Hit it with 3000 grit if you want to use it on more oil conditions.

Best part of this ball are the numbers RG (2.469) DIFF (0.034) ASY (0.013) The asymmetry of this ball gives it an advantage over the IQ Tour. I have seen plenty of the iq's being thrown and when I see the longevity of iq being overthrown by my envy, I can stay where I'm at because I am kicking those 10 pins out while the competition is leaving them flat.

I drilled mine 45 X 4 X 50. The Hammer Envy Tour is amazing and my favorite ball of all time. This is the ultimate benchmark piece and a must-have for medium to heavy oil lane conditions. This asymmetric solid is very smooth, predictable, and versatile. I love the shape of this ball, and it will be a staple in my tournament bag for many years to come!

This ball delivers plain and simple. This is my #1 tournament ball and first one out of the bag. This ball drilled 50x4x50 gives me the most predictable ball reaction I've had in years. House shot, long sport, short sport ot is good on everthing I've tried so far.

The Hammer Envy Tour is the big ball in my arsenal that allows me to play on oily lane conditions. I have never thrown the Envy line, but really glad I put this ball in my new arsenal. The Hammer Envy Tour is incredibly smooth, yet very strong on oily lane conditions. The Envy Tour picks up much sooner than the Obsession Tour down lane. This ball allows bowlers to adjust the surface to adjust to multiple lane conditions. The drill pattern in this ball was very simple, as I kept the pin and CG close to my span to ensure I get a very clean and consistent roll through the heads and off the spot. This ball is a must have if you were ever a fan of the Obsession line of Hammer bowling balls.

The Envy Tour is one of the most versatile balls on the market today. I've used it on sport, challenge, and recreational patterns, from 35' to 45' in length. Drilling for me is pin above bridge with a 40 degree VAL angle. It's pretty dull out of the box so don't base your opinion of the ball on the first couple of games. It settles in and becomes more of its true self shortly after. The shape is clean through the fronts, and it seems to see the friction at just the right point when it has its peak energy stored for maximum striking power. I'd say it's slightly more angular than smooth, but of course that depends on the layout and pattern. This is truly a must-have piece simply for the fact that it can be used across a variety of conditions. Its only area of challenge may be when urethane has caused dry heads and it may see the lane too soon. But otherwise, a terrific ball. Jeff Poholsky Brunswick Regional Staff

Talk about versatility this ball is it. If you had and liked the obsession tour then you’ll absolutely love this ball. Same core with an upgraded stronger cover. It tends to be the first ball out of my bag everywhere I go and sometimes it’s the only ball I’ll end up using or needing

As a big fan of the Obsession Tour, this new piece became an instant favorite! While the Envy was pretty aggressive on the lane, the Envy Tour gives that much smoother roll that we've come to expect from Tour releases. For me, the Envy Tour is slightly earlier than the Obsession Tour and a bit stronger down lane and soooooo versatile. Do not miss out on this ball!!

Another great ball comes back from any where
