This solid cover, crafted with factory compound, delivers exceptional mid-lane motion and an aggressive change of direction.

The Hammer Effect Line is Complete!!!
The new Hammer Effect line is by far the newest and hottest ball line produced in years. The Hammer Effect changed the game as to how pearlized balls can react in oil. The Hammer Effect Tour took the original Hammer Effect and put a solid coverstock on it and created a new ball shape not seen from a solid bowling balls in recent years. Now, Hammer has introduced the newest innovation in the Effect line, the Hammer Special Effect! The new Special Effect has the successful new Huntsman core wrapped in the HK22-Cohesion solid coverstock with a factory compound which delivers an exceptional mid-lane motion and an aggressive change of direction off the spot. The Special Effect compliments the original Hammer Effect by providing a cleaner ball motion through the front parts of the lane, with a stronger continuous ball motion through the pins with incredible hitting power. I absolutely love the Hammer Special Effect and now I have all three Hammer Effect line balls in my bag, because of their versatility and predictability on both oily and medium lane conditions. Keep believing the hype about the Hammer Effect line because these balls are just simply amazing. The new Hammer Special Effect in my opinion completes the Effect line and provides bowlers at all levels versatility on oily conditions unlike any other ball in the market today! The new Special Effect is available in your local pro shop!

Hammer Special Effect
Hammer came out with another awesome piece. The Special Effect is a shiny solid that slows down just enough in the mid lane to be predictable, but is very continuous down lane. That makes this ball special. It has HK22-cohesion on the cover and the Huntsman core inside. I shot 695 the first week opening all 3 tenth frames. Should have been much bigger series. Followed that up by shooting 793 the next week. This ball is a four color beauty with a citrus smell. This ball needs to be in everyone's arsenal.

BALL IS DEFINITELY SPECIAL
Words can’t express how good the Hammer Special Effect really is. Hammer has really outdone themselves once again. I had the opportunity to drill two of them, one 60 x 5 x 30 and the other 40 x 4 ¼ x 70. I’m super impressed with the versatility, predictability and shape with both layouts. The HK22 Cohesion coverstock is devastating providing mid lane traction without sacrificing any backend motion. The Hammer Special Effect is a must have so visit your Local Pro Shop Operator and get your ASAP!!!

Special Effect is Special
The Hammer Special Effect is just that a special blend of the original Huntsman Core and the HK22 Cohesion Solid and finished with the Factory Compound has smoothened out the reaction of the Original Effect yet provides awesome recovery and hitting power. This ball is Goood! This balls allows me to play up the boards as well as move to play inside angles. Even when there is some oil on the lanes you can see this ball tracking through it and still providing the hitting power and motion on the backend. This is a great addition with the Effect Tour and Original Effect. You can see the progression from the Special Effect to the Original Effect when the lanes begin to break down. The Effect Series is providing great reaction and reliability.
