YEP! I SAID IT! | Hammer Effect Tour

When Hammer makes a Tour version follow up to the original Effect, it better have some SERIOUS performance to back up that name! The Hammer Effect Tour is exactly that ball. Just watch the video, this is a no nonsense, gritty workhorse!

🚨🚨🚨BRAND NEW BRUNSNICK MERCH!🚨🚨🚨
I have collaborated with Inside Bowling to design some t-shirts and performance hoodies and here they are! Sport some OG BrunsNick gear, check out the link!

With the help of SPECTO data, it'll help tell the story about reaction shape, overall hook and continuation through the pins. Here are the SPECTO data points used and definition of each term:

Launch Speed - Speed measured off the hand.
Entry Speed - Speed measured at the pins. (What you'd see on your home center MPH screens)
Rev Rate - Revolutions Per Minute (RPM)
Launch Angle - The angle the ball traveled the first 10 feet.
Break Point Position - Board at which the ball was at its outermost position.
Total Hook - Total number of boards the ball crosses on the way to the pins.
Hook Power - Number of boards the ball hooked based from the True Breakpoint.
Entry Angle - The angle of the ball between 51 and 55 feet.
Impact Angle - The angle of the ball between 57 and 59.5 feet.
Pin Deck Exit - Ball position at the end of the pin deck.

12:20 - "Guys, and %4 ladies" cracked me up 😂

I loved my Obsession Tour and now I'm thinking that I need this in my bag!

[DtKnize]

I see it coming already, Hammer Effect Tour Pearl

[robertvanepps]

Can't wait to see you throw this in league
Almost bought the no doubt, but I love my original hammer effect.

[TerrySwanson-fl]

You make these balls look so good! I have the Effect and it is absolutely a great ball! My favorite ball so much fun to throw. This ball looks very fun also! Nice!

[hetcarnavalsbeest]

Weer een leuke video. Mooi dat je het allemaal zelf kunt. Je geeft altijd fijne uitleg bij je videos. Bedankt daarvoor.
Another nice video. It's great that you can do it all yourself. You always give nice explanations with your videos. Thank you for that.
Love from Holland Ken Lee and Kevin Lee and Lamme tak, and bowlingmaster.

Balls I have bought based off your reviews: Effect, 3.0, low flare, strike, artic, purple urethane. And now I will be ordering this one. Love your vids. Please make Anger your next vid.

[Ecubed]

I think the Vaporize is the ball of the year. Would love to see a follow up on that. That being said, this looks nice. The old school look gives me good memories. I will be getting this.

[GrumpaBaggins]

I'm very glad to see the Tour come to the States. I wish the special edition would too. I threw a 191 in game 2 of league tonight. Not a huge score, but way up from a 3 week slump I've been having. There were a lot of Effects on the returns tonight, followed by the Optimum Idol.

I have an web tour solid that I love so much, I haven’t been able to find anything yet to compare, I thought the envy tour would be the one but it wasn’t but this definitely seems like the one to finally replace my web tour

[DtKnize]

I would love to see this ball polished and shiny.

[dddd]

Balls I've bought because of you and Phil: Rattler, rattler big bite, Deadly Ratter, Rattler NU, Hammer Effect, Hammer BW 3.0, GB5, and Hammer Envy Tour.

I started working at our local bowling alley as a mechanic. They are using the Brunswick A2 pinsetters. I am learning as I go.

[TheDeder]

As always; thank you B-Nick for another great review.

It seems you are quite impressed with the piece. However if you were asked to nominate a ball from Brunswick, Hammer, DV8, Track, Ebonite and of course Cilombia 300; what pieces would they be, presuming they wouldn't be all benchmark;
For example; one for long, one for flat medium, one for short, best for burnt, all arounder/Benchmark.

I know I'm asking a lot. Maybe an idea for a upcoming video? 😊

And yes. I do realize we can tune a ball a lot with cover prep. I'm saying from a brand new, less then 5 frames o.o.b. based on your experience with them so far.

Also I would love to see you do a BowlBingo at least twice a year 🎉

[cameronmcisaac]

How does this compare to the Envy tour? Basically the same ball core numbers wise and I think the covers are almost the same strength according to the hammer website

[josephmarinucci]

The sound of your release is just like a throbot, and the results are pretty much the same. You really make every ball look good.

[reneleroux]

I just bought the ancient IQ Tour a week ago for the same reasons you mention here. Thanks.

[themyth]

Gives me IQ Tour vibes, but with purple hammer energy 🤔

[jasonboness]

I like those numbers on that ball, my specs are very close to your specs and I like the look of the ball motion. Been trying to find a ball to start league in game one on the fresh, been trying different surfaces on a Hy-Road but I've never been able to match up with it too well. Might have to pony up for this one.

[huntermoore]

I have the obsession tour, but it was drilled for a 1 hander. Now being 2 hands for the past year and a half, tons of surface changes, using CTD gloss and just loving the Obsession Tour, it’s finally died 😢 but I just bought both the Envy Tour and Effect Tour lol
