I can easily say that this is my favorite Hammer bowling ball, maybe my favorite ball I have ever owned! I mainly throw storm and roto grip, and a lot of those balls give me more of a skid flip reaction. The motion of this ball is very predictable. It has a smooth arc that I love! This is a great ball for shorter patterns like the viper and chameleon. And when the lanes break down on some longer patterns like the scorpion, this ball is insane! This isn't always the best ball for me to throw on a fresh shot, because my rev rate is not the highest, but is perfect when the lanes begin to break down. Also a pin down layout on this ball is even better. I would recommend this ball to anyone, this is a great benchmark ball in anyone's arsenal!

As a collegiate bowler, I needed a ball for longer sport patterns with higher volumes of oil. I have it drilled pin below my ring finger and CG is kicked out with a low hole. This ball rolls very strong in the midlane without losing hitting power on the backend. I would definitely recommend this ball to anyone in need of a ball for the same conditions. Great addition to my arsenal, thanks Roto Grip!

Just got this ball drilled up a week ago and so far i love it. Got it drilled pin down for an early roll. Not only does it pick up early, but it has all the continuation you could need. I am a high rev tweener and normally dont play past the middle arrow. But on a fresh house shot, i was playing 25 board out to the 10 and it came back and smashed pocket with plenty of continuation. I was amazed with the reaction i was getting with this ball. I got this ball for the heavier volume patterns i rum into at tournaments and i feel that this ball will serve that purpose well. I recommend this ball to anyone needing a very strong ball that will still hook on the heaviest oil.

Just got this ball yesterday, and used it in my league today. I am a medium speed, medium to high rev player. I don't know if it was the oil pattern or the ball but it worked great. Over three games, i only had to move one board to the left. I have mine drilled for more length, mainly fore short oil. I would definently recommend this ball to anyone looking for a ball with moderate hook with good control of the mid to back part of the lane.

Just got this ball yesterday and allready love it. It has everything i was looking for in a ball. Before this ball, i have been throwing my virtual energy. The only thing that i didnt like about that ball was too much length, which i shouldnt have had it drilled for. With the invasion, i can get more grip on the lane, earlier hook and something about this ball makes it hit the pins harder. I would deffinently reccomend this ball.

Great Ball. This has given me much more hook on the ball. Great for heavy oil. Rolled my first 600 series with this ball, 217, 208, and 205. I would recommend this ball to anyone seeking big hook and good on heavy oil. Oh yeah, it smells good too.

There is only one word i can think of to describe this ball, WOW! I had to look twice with this ball reaction. All i have been hearing for the last few months is how good this NANO is. Well, this ball lives up to the hype! Does exactly what it is advertised to do, and that is a lot of hook. I found that this ball performed better in heavier oil than it did in the lighter oil. Heavier the oil, the better this ball reacts. Yet to throw it on a tournament condition, but i am sure i will have no problem getting a good reaction from this ball. I would recommend this ball to anyone. You need a heavy oil ball, then look no further than the VG NANO!
