Hammer Hazmat Pearl Bowling Ball

I recently had a chance to punch the Hammer Hazmat Pearl and here are my impressions. The Hazmat Pearl features the same low RG/high diff Hazmat symmetric core found in the prior two Hazmat releases over the last 2 years. The cover is a blue/white/cobalt Semtex Pearl with the HK-22 base found in many Brands of Brunswick releases. Box finish is Factory Compound over 1500 Siaair. I have drilled one with a 55 x 5 1/4 x 25 layout and I went over the ball with a 4000 Siaair pad. I have tried the Hazmat Pearl on a variety of THS. Hammer's intent was to create a stronger piece with a little quicker downlane response for medium volume patterns. This was the first ball I drilled since I did a finger pitch change on all of the balls that are currently in the arsenal. So, being the first new ball, I was anxious to try it. I also had some issues getting the prior Hazmat releases to match up for my game. I talked with fellow Brands of Brunswick staffer John Zawalick about what I could do to make the Hazmat Pearl work. We came up with a little different layout to try. I don't know if it is the layout or the finger pitch change but the Hazmat Pearl is exactly what I wanted. I can usually tell pretty quickly whether any given ball offers a shape I'll like and to be sure, the Hazmat Pearl has already earned a spot in my bag. The Hazmat Pearl has a wide range of motion handling increased rotation and a much steeper launch as well as handling a more up the back release with a straighter launch. The Hazmat Pearl handled both with ease splitting the 8-9 when it entered the pit. This release hits the target in terms of its designated purpose. Plus, I have to say this release just looks great going down the lane with that color combination. I NEVER talk about practice games as that's all they are... practice games. But if you want to know how much I like the Hazmat Pearl, without any practice with it, first game out of the box was 299 with the 7 pin in the 12th. The Hammer Hazmat Pearl is readily available. See your local pro shop for more information!

The Hazmat Pearl is the 3rd in ball introduced in the Hazmat Series and it doesn't disappoint. The ball is clean through the front of the lane and reads the midlane great with a strong continuous backend motion. I have been able with my 60x4x30 drill been able to play up the lane and continue to move left and get great recovery and finish. I loved my Hazmat Hybrid and Solid and this is a great addition to both. It is a Strong Symmetrical so don't underestimate it at all.
