Hammer High Performance Bowling Balls

To understand the components of high performance bowling balls is to consider the ball construction materials as two independent components, the coverstock and the inner-core materials. High performance bowling balls are essentially all poly-urethane based products. These products include additive materials and curing process variations, particularly for the coverstocks, yielding calculated designs in the final bowling ball construction.

The industry refers to various coverstock blends, however, in the following way: plastic, urethane, reactive resin, hybrid reactive, and particle materials. Each of these coverstock material variations yields to the performance range capabilities a given bowling ball possesses. Hybrid or particle coverstocks are, typically, the pro performance ranges of bowling balls and the reactive resin coverstock is found commonly in the general performance ranges of bowling balls, both being available from 12 – 16 lbs in weight and both considered high performance bowling balls.
Naturally, the coverstock is the most important, single factor in determining the right choice of bowling balls but don’t overlook the importance of the inner core designs. Manufacturers will design cores made of urethane and polymer based products in varying density ranges, shapes, and sizes so the end result will influence the overall ball motion predictably as it travels down the lane.

Hammer bowling balls have long been associated with power, control, and innovation. Their high-performance line is designed for serious bowlers who demand superior performance on the lanes. Known for their aggressive hook potential and strong backend reaction, Hammer’s high-performance balls are engineered to deliver striking power with precision.
What sets Hammer bowling balls apart is their advanced core and coverstock technology. The **Aggression CFI** (Carbon Fiber Infused) coverstock is one of their signature materials, offering durability and increased friction for enhanced hook. This coverstock allows the ball to grip the lane even on heavy oil patterns, providing bowlers with more control in challenging conditions.
The core designs in Hammer’s high-performance balls are also crafted for maximum power transfer. Asymmetrical cores like the **First Blood** or the **Gas Mask Core** in the famous Hammer Black Widow series are designed to promote a strong, continuous motion through the pins, delivering explosive strikes. These cores help bowlers achieve a more consistent and predictable reaction, vital for league and tournament play.
Another feature that appeals to bowlers is Hammer's use of **carbon fiber reinforcement**, which not only strengthens the ball but also comes with a warranty for peace of mind. The durability and longevity of Hammer bowling balls make them a trusted choice for those looking to invest in equipment that can withstand the demands of regular play.
In summary, Hammer high-performance bowling balls are designed for bowlers who want the perfect blend of power, durability, and control. With advanced technology and a focus on aggressive lane performance, Hammer continues to be a top choice for bowlers seeking a competitive edge.
