Introducing the Hammer Special Effect, a worthy successor to the legendary Effect, Hammer’s top High-Performance ball in years. Leveraging the trusted Huntsman core from its predecessor, the Special Effect elevates your play with the cutting-edge HK22-Cohesion Solid coverstock—bowling’s latest sensation. Finished with factory compound, this solid cover offers robust mid-lane control and a sharp, powerful hook. While maintaining the Effect’s smooth front-end glide, the Special Effect reacts a touch sooner, making it ideal for oily lanes when you need a shiny ball with extra bite. Built for adaptability, the Special Effect ensures reliable, standout performance across diverse oil conditions.
Here's what Hammer has to say about the Special Effect:
The new Hammer Special Effect is the perfect follow-up to the iconic Effect, Hammer’s most successful High-Performance ball in decades. Building on the proven power of the Huntsman core, featured in the original Effect, the Special Effect takes your game to the next level with HK22-Cohesion Solid, the hottest cover in bowling. This solid cover, crafted with factory compound, delivers exceptional mid-lane motion and an aggressive change of direction. Compared to the original Effect, the Special Effect still provides ease through the front of the lane but is slightly earlier, giving you the edge when there’s oil, and you need a bigger hooking shiny ball. Designed for versatility, the Special Effect is your go-to ball for consistent, high-performance results on a variety of oil patterns.
