    I bought this ball about a month ago and had it punched up, but have yet to throw it in league without some practice with it first (been busy). After seeing this great review, I will be making time to practice with it, and if it performs half as well as it did for you, it will be in my league bag for next week.
    Thank you for the best review for the Hammer Raw Black on youtube.

    I have the silver and pink Raw. It is a pearl. I would like to try the hybrid and the solid too. My wife steels it all the time. We have almost identical hand hit except the thumb size. So we can change thumbs with the vise it system and she can use any of my balls. I had it soaked to get the oil out and resurfaced because it had got nasty and she was not wiping it off ever. She was living the lily several times in the pocket. I threw it 2 frames Thursday and both was pocket5 pins. I got it back today and it was money. No more stupid 5 pin leaves. I have had some real good games with my pearl in the past too. For the money the raw is a great line of balls. I would love to see it compared to Rotogrip hustle camo. But good video. Thank you as always Luis.
    Also to anyone that feels their ball is in the pocket but will not carry especially if it is hitting flat. clean your ball professionally. Have it soaked or baked to remove the oil and then resurface it. They get a lot of oil in them or crap on them they will just burn up the balls energy spinning out on the backend instead of grabbing the dry and turning, then it just hits dead. I know Luis knows all this but some of you that have a lot of games on a ball it might be worth looking at doing. I have been told about every 60 games they need to be de oiled. I am currently rolling 25 to 30 games a week so it adds up fast.

    Excellent review of the Raw Hammer Black! I have one and use it from the left side and it is equally an awesome ball. It's very forgiving, release friendly, and has excellent carry. I've used it on the fresh and the burn and it does equally well providing a strong but predictable reaction. For me the Hammer Raw Black is a weaker version of the Hammer Web Tour which I have taken out to 500/2000/3000 to make it usable on a house shot. I think the Hammer Raw Black is probably one of the more underrated balls - especially at its price point. :)

    A lot of these lower end balls are performing very very well on typical house shots, when the lanes have friction. In my home center I get the best performance on the house shot with an Brunswick Rhino. Easy to go with a score of 200+ per round at the end of the day.

Lanes were really dry too but that 30-40 degree sudden yank at the end took some getting used to. You don't think it is going to do anything and stay pretty straight and then BAM. It pulls a juke... Going to say this, I wished I had this RAW to try out on the light to dry conditions!! Def going to add the RAW to the bag.

    How does this compare against the vibe? I normally bowl with an older Beast 13.9 lb (at 16-17 mph), and just got a vibe (15.2 lb), my speed dropped by 4-5 mph, and I’m finding the vibe likes the back of the alley a lot at 12 mph. I’m thinking of getting the RAW in a 13.8-14 lb, so I can roll at 14-15 mph. Thoughts?

    I have the Raw Hybrid and it is great when my upper and upper/mid performance balls just get squirrelly in the mids and very inconsistent motion in the back. It is basically a great ball to ball down to when there has been too much transition on the heads. Please do the burner pearl.

      the Onyx Vibe, in particular, has a stronger cover and slightly more differential (042 to 038 in 15lb.). Smooth, but a little more angular using the same layout than the Black Raw. I've thrown them both. The Onyx was a very good ball, as is the Black Raw Hammer. You should be able to stay with he Black Raw longer in blocks of medium to light oil, it's an under the radar killer.
