Love the videos. I haven't thrown a ball in years and I sure miss it! Working nights in a small town doesn't help, but the fact that our little 14 lane house closed down a few years ago really kills it. I think the closest house to me now is roughly 80 miles away, a little far for league night. I wonder if my old Black Hammer would still make that sweet, sweet sound as it crashes through the pocket? Hmmm... I doubt seriously that I could throw it at the same speed or same rev rate I did a few years ago... Damn, I miss bowling.
This is a great video! I'm still learning how to read the lanes and you explaining what is happening, (after I see your shot) really gives me a better idea of what I should be looking for in warmups.
It just blows my mind to see a ball hook like that….something I’ve never even tried to do because I never knew how it’s done but it sure is cool to watch…👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Great comparison! Very informative! I've been thinking about getting another Hammer to replace my Purple Hammer, which I LOVED! This just might be the one! Thanks!!!
I bowled as a kid on a saturday league forever. Translated to adult leagues through around 1998. Have not bowled since then except a time or two. Love your videos and I'm completely lost my last ball was a blue rino. I'm now bowling 2x a month a work friend gave me a couple of balls and I had them fitted to me. I know I'm lost out there by myself bowling but it's so much fun. You guys are in a different stratosphere than me but I can swing a mean hook, lol. The detail and sophistication is insane. I might pick up a NU ball. Are you throwing 15lb?
Hey dude, I really appreciate you making these videos on bowling balls so I can see what I like about it and see what I don’t without having to actually buy it keep up the amazing content. Love you man I might get one of those NU blue hammers.
My dad took me bowling when I was Twelve! I fell in love with the game and followed all the grates, watched regularly, had my own ball, shoes, played on a league etc. After my first wife died, I did just a little more bowling (around 35 years all together) and that was when I decided to use a new technique! I could throw my bowling shoes at the pins and get a better score!!
I'm using a IQ tour Ruby right now and loving it , still figuring out the changes from wood lanes to synthetic , but my average has jumped over 15 pins
Thanks for the video. The ball has a similar look to the OG Blue Hammer. I loved the OG. I know this ball is nowhere near what the old Blue Hammer was, but I will probably get one anyway.
Idk why but that blue hammer NU just looks nice hopefully you have a great season and win a major or two. Hood luck Packy. Edit: Also I’m very surprised that I’m this early to a video
Awesome video Packy! When does this Blue Hammer release? My only critique would be the color. The sky blue makes it almost look like a house ball. But if it shapes the way you need and it drives through the pins, i guess the color doesn't matter. Blue is the new purple. 😂
I absolutely loved the blue in the day, drilled semi finger tip. Rolled my best games. Ive been out of it for 15-20 years and have been thinking about getting back into it. Releasing this blue makes it even more likely I come back. Although Ill roll a 14 instead a 15 being almost 70 years old now. Now I need a spare ball. Back in the day it was my Black Hammer drilled straight. Wonder if they have something like the black too?
I'm just in the market for a new ball (only get one every twenty years or so) so I guess my timing is good! I may be going with a 14# after using only 16#. Can't hang on to those anymore, keep dropping them.
@@KC9UDX Same here, not bowling alot, no longer in leagues, so the 16 is a bit much right now. I am actually considering dropping back down to my first ball weight (40yrs ago) at 12 lbs.
Hey packy am about to finish highschool and have been thinking about trying to get onto the shockers and go to witchita for college. Very happy I found your vids
After the first shot looks like it gets of the spot just a tad quicker but love the content you’ve helped me more then you’d ever know in bowling keep it up!
I'd be interested in NU's reaction to inconsistent opponents messing up the groove and seeing how it reacts and reads from there. Enjoy the content, keep it up. Oh, the "shop" ad for this video is for the purple hammer shirt...might need to finish milking that and get the NU one.
Looks like something you’d use once the purple starts leaving flat 7 or it’s hooking too early early in a block. However, that’s coming from someone whose only ever watched the pba vlogs to grasp an idea of how you all play. Both are super smooth shots. Funny how pros prefer smooth shapes while most house bowers prefer sharp, quick, responsive shapes.
New subscriber here. Your content is great and well presented. I’ve just returned to league bowling after a 25 year hiatus. I picked up on all of the BIG changes in ball technology through your channel - my 1996 “Norm Duke Hammer” isn’t cutting it any more. Interested in the new blue NU Hammer. Will be looking at this ball for when it comes out next month.
Glad I can keep you up to date and love to see you getting back into bowling! Don’t forget you can get all your bowling needs at buddies pro shop using the link in description!😁
I can’t believe people are throwing with two hands now . A person would have been laughed out of the bowling alley back in the early 90’s when I was a serious bowler , lol .
I can't believe the cost of this ball. Just got the extreme envy it's wonderful. I need a urethane type ball and this looks like it. Great video thank you! Just subscribed
This nu blue hammer should match well with me I have a very good look using the tank line from motiv and this ball seems to fit what those balls do downlane
I love Packy hes probably my number 1 favorite bowler and ever since I started watching him I actually throw a purple hammer myself and Im a lefty lmao 😂
I don’t see a lot of difference which is awesome you get the money ball motion without the urethane trashing carry down issues I see no downside so far
Hi Packy, what is the dual angle layout for those bowling balls. I am interested in drilling a ball like that? What is that layout post to do? Hook more or less. I am looking for a layout that hooks less? What do you recommend?
Love your videos for pointers I'm new to league bowling I just found out I throw a spare ball need help finding a reactive ball any ideas u could help out with
