What I Was Looking For In This Ball Layout:
The Raw Hammer series has always been a consistent series of mid price performance bowling balls. We were looking for a basic layout to let me read what this ball can do and hopefully get past this bright yellow color that Hammer chose.

One thing is for sure if this turns out to be a winner for Hammer there will be no missing it on the lanes.

What I Ended Up With in the Ball and Layout:
I ended up with a really good ball reaction kind of as I expected. There has not been a Raw Hammer that has let me down yet. I compare this line to the Vortex line that Ebonite used to have, every ball is a solid piece
of equipment that lets you play a variety of angles with the same good ball motion.

The Burn was a little tough to read at first since the color is hard to pick up going down the lane. Once my eyes adjusted to the color and swirl patterns you could tell how hard this ball was working going down the lane. Very smooth
from the heads into the transition part of the lane with plenty of energy stored for the back end portion.

Overall ball reaction was solid and I think this ball will play well for a majority of bowlers out there looking for a solid ball reaction from a mid-priced pearlized ball.
