Bowling Ball Reviews: Hammer Gauntlet
January 25, 2017 Leave a comment
The Hammer Gauntlet gave us a longer skid through the heads with a shorter transition in the mid-lane, the Gauntlet has a more arcing/angular motion and revs up in the back-end, we found the Gauntlet to be a smoother type ball motion and had very good continuation. We felt the Gauntlet would be best used as a first game ball on medium to heavier and longer lane patterns. A good bowling ball for playing a medium line on medium oil or direct line on heavy oil patterns. We put this in the controlled motion type bowling ball motion. You will need some oil but don’t have to be flooded for peak performance of this bowling ball. A strong ball from Hammer.
Description: Returning is the extremely strong Semtex CFI coverstock from the Scandal, only this time we’ve used a hybrid version. This is the strongest cover in Hammer’s history. Heavy oil is no match.However, this time we didn’t try to tame the reaction with a symmetric core. The new Gauntlet Asymmetric core was designed to maximize hook and continuation on heavy oil. The Gauntlet will have more overall hook and more angularity than the Scandal.
