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.

Packy coming out HOT after the announcement! Quality of the vids continuing to grow, love to see it

Highly considering this ball, still new to bowling but this channel has helped my game grow little by little. Nice work man, doing a great job!

Those first games show the consistency of a true professional. Jeez.

crazy what they come out with!! Looks like it has a pretty decent core in it too. It hits pretty hard. I would definitely give in a try in a tourny👍

Ball looks great! Would love to see another video showcasing this ball on a short pattern to see if it does well with that too

Wow, I picked up an OG blue hammer from marketplace last season and love that old ball, this just got me so hyped!

I had a blue urethane Hammer back in the early 90's that looked like the blue hammer you just got.

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.

just got back into bowling after over 20 years and wow ball have changed a lot.

Appreciate the comparison and the details you provided on how you played each ball

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!!

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…👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

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?

Thanks for the quick review. Looks like it will be a GREAT replacement in regionals for the purple.

When I first heard of this ball I was way to excitedc it looks good thanks for making this video

That shape reminds me so much of what I loved about my Stingray C. Early read, smooth hook without rolling out.

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

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?

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.

Thank you for the quick & quality review

This blue NU is super enticing.

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.

This ball will be PHENOMENAL👏🏾🔥

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!!!

You’re videos have been a great help and have made me become a better bowler! Thank you

Thx for insight... definitely going to help for future decisions

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

Thanks for the quick review

You are like a bowling physicist. I like how you break down the shots. Definitely subscribed

You are definitely my top 3 bowling KZfaqr packy!!! Can’t wait to get mine.

lol I saw this ball earlier today first thing I thought was if you are going to love it. I sure hope you do. It is a damn good looking ball.

That blue hammer looks pretty good up the front half of the lane. Can't wait to see this on some shorter patterns.

Like the color of the new Blue Hammer. Nice review!

Getting my drilled next week. Can't wait to use it!!!!

Good looking ball. Love me some Hammers!!

That new Blue hammer looks like it's smooth going down I'll have to try it out!

It really nice sky blue hammer NU is the best bowling ball and it almost even with purple hammer bowling ball get into strike zone, wow. 😮

Never have owned a hammer ball... this one will be my first!

Good video.. may have mine Monday 😁 got a good feeling about this ball

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. 😂

That ball looks so good

As soon as I saw the news on this bowling ball I had to come straight to Packy. Thank you for this review!

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.

I’m sure it will get glowing reviews from you guys on tour 👌🏻

Packy, did you notice it absorbing or was it leaving oil on the cover? did it shine up pretty quick or did it hold onto the surface pretty good? I noticed the core flares twice as much as regular purple, you think it’s gonna chew up the lane as much? How much was it flaring? I was gonna drill a fresh purple pin thane but if this one is close I might just go with it, looks pretty damn close

Looks like a great addition!!

As an old school bowler, I'm learning a lot from these videos

found a purple hammer nail ball at a garage sale from the 90s, been using it as my strike ball since lol

I just watched hammers video on it and it looks so good!

Looks nice, definitely a must for me.

I remember bowling at them lanes as a kid. Cool seeing another youtuber from my village!

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

Subscribed☑️ sick video! Im excited for my pre order! Thanks for the info!

Looks really good! Might have to get one.

Great comparison! I don't think anything will be exactly like urethane, but that balloons damage clo close. Probably as close as you can get.

Im really looking Forward to see what you do in tourneys with the NUBlue... really interested in the ball

very nice !!! Hello from Port Orange,Fl

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.

Absolutely gonna pick one of these up now

Hey Packky! I just saw a vid on the NU blue hammer. My preorder is already in. Lol

Just getting into bowling. I’m really enjoying it man i want to get better. You got a new subscriber today sir

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!

Havent bowled in almost 10 years. Last ball I truly loved was the IQ Fusion but it cracked. Might try one of my old ones one day when it gets cooler.

The Sky Blue Hammer!!!

Could you compare the flare different by showing track line on balls? This helps me to choose which layout i should put on.

Bought the vibe so far so good

Great video, thanks...

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.

me: So bad. 5 Packy: So bad. 10

I think you should, the more information you accumulate on a ball will always translate to tournament conditions! Loved the video.

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?

Just came here to say that your videos are getting really good, and it was nice to meet you at Northrock!

Ball looks good!!!

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

almost here it's next month on the 15th and I sure do love bowling myself how come everytime I see my grandpa he takes me bowling when he can

Just got my purple hammer and I’m loving very interested in why the cuter holds with the new blue N.U

I am really curious to see if it is going to carry down oil like the purple. Especially on some tournament play I will use the purple to create some hold downlane before I go to reactive

Big fan here Pakey, new subscriber to. I think I’m going to love that ball.

been watching you forever love the content

@TheHouseBowling, Packy could you do a comparison video of the Purple Hammer Solid Reactive vs. NU Blue Hammer? I’m curious to how different the two are since they have the same RG, Diff, and Core.

Motiv did it first with the MCP. Motiv is always ahead of the game. I love my blue tank. Cool to see other brands going to this new technology

Love it!

Great video!

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 😂

Love to See how this New NU -Hammer Blue rocks the Lane

Happy to see the Blue Hammer is looking good for you. Also now that it has been a little while, how has adjusting to string pins been?

Hey the house bowling I just found your channel and you guys are awesome I subbed

Let's go! I was almost set on getting the Teal Rhino Pro, but I think this is going to replace my PH as well as that spot in the bag. Looks $$$$

Wow nice video keep up the good work

I’m excited for this one! Just curious, do you still need to give it a warmup shot like a traditional urethane?

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

Great comparison

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

I want that blue ball looks so good they did a great job with it

great video bro

Lovin it!!!

Did I see string pins???? Honestly the new Blue looks really good.

nice job!
