Hammer Ocean Vibe Review

[Music] what's going on world we're back again today we're looking at the hammer ocean vibe great vibes great vibes uh this is a little different this time man we're going to be bowling on a bear pattern pva bear path uh so this is i think 2018 so it's 41 feet and not that crazy one like 47 feet uh so this is still like

kind of some leftovers so it's tough it's not going to be an easy one but yeah it is definitely it's gonna be a challenge so we're gonna see how this ball looks uh so i think it should look alright especially with it being a cleaner shell and uh being like probably about game five uh so they had a sweeper here for the fourth of july so that kind of time dates this video hopefully got recorded but uh yeah man so we're going to get into that and here in a second and as always man rocking my cool wigs so use that discount code a link below

hutch 10 there you go and then if you want to purchase this ball it comes out uh july 8th use the link below that really goes and supports the channel i appreciate all the love uh being down here in florida i'm seeing a lot of people that are seeing the channel and speaking to me at the bowling center i appreciate all of that helps me keep pushing forward and yeah man if you are in the south florida area uh go check out my boy tony at boulder's edge and they'll take care of you again that's really about it anywhere else check out bozemark

everything else so let's get to the video all right so see the layouts they are a little bit different uh the web is pinned down uh we will not be looking at uh the ghost in this video i did have it up there but i didn't uh throw it it's just the divide and and the weapon so there it is uh there's ob

out here again this is a pva pattern uh so again they're flatter so across the middle um they hook then on the outside it kind of will just sit there and so there are a couple oh no's essentially uh in this video uh but i want to really test it out and see what it looked like on this particular challenging pattern yeah man so again for this ball being you know so much cleaner uh then you know we'll see here in a moment a

little later uh you're gonna see a messenger uh not in this video but i do have that coming in this film on the same day but yeah the messenger looked a lot different but from what i'm really understanding from the vibe man this is a step above the raw series um as far as strength goes uh i reached out to tyler armor just to get a little more understanding of what some of the design intent was and and this ball man it's i really believe like it's going to be a high friction centers people are going

to love this um i know you probably hear me say that you know here and there like high friction centers or the center like i'm in currently saw grass where they put a lot of oil down um and that really those characteristics you we don't you know really see a lot of it um but yeah man the vibe was very clean for for it to have to get down the lane as easy as it did and retain the energy um it really really really wowed me um and so as we get into the wet pearl the

web pro is a lot earlier um we're going to talk about the numbers here in a moment but yeah this one like just a little earlier uh and not storing as much down lane so in house shots you don't see these characteristics as much how shots things like get really blended get really murky as far as like understanding what ball motion actually looks like these sports patterns really really you know open your eyes up to like what the actual ball is supposed to do

because again the condition is more flat but it is clearly shown um that again the web just picks pick up lane a little earlier um and then again it makes it a little a hair smoother down lane not to say uh that again the ball the web pro doesn't hook or or that the vibe out hooks the web like no the web is clearly a stronger bowling ball uh it's just the vibe is storing all of this

energy for downwind but yeah this particular pattern is tough um this one again how shots you have a lot of options to get to the pocket uh sport patterns um and you know some of those pva patterns they they make you play a zone based on your rev rate your tilt by how you get around it um it kind of forces you into a zone so for me and with my rev ray uh forced me a little far left in my speed

but here let's look at the numbers real quick this has the classic vibe core and a ct reactive plus pearl cover stock uh we have an rg of two five two five one zero and a differential of oh four two uh for the vibe and it's finished at 500 2000 polish now compound polish so just keep that in mind i know a lot of times you see polish and again you see how the numbers compare um this one the web web pearl uh has you know that 1500 compound

finish which again allows it to be a little bit earlier so here we go um again the web pros is again a much more aggressive piece uh but yeah so as we get here uh plant more up the boards made a lot of sense um some sport patterns you know i will try to stay as close to the to the oil and just kind of rot that thin line um at times but again here this wasn't the ball to do that with

uh playing it more up the boards i could make it work you'd have to be really precise um speed had to be right if i overpowered it um that that's what happens um kind of can throw a gutter you know it's very easy um on this type of particular pattern to you know if you leak it a little right it doesn't have a chance um but once you get to the right zone you get far enough left you know that's what you're looking for look for a little hole so you actually don't have to you know hit you know you have one inch down there to

hit to to strike but yeah this ball floated through through all the friction um out of all the balls that i tested this day like this was the easiest through the front part of the lane um but also because of that it is a little more violent uh because it's storing more energy but again again this pattern is really really tricky uh but i definitely know like this is this is my ball down i typically don't like to go lower than what pearl gb4 pearl um i like to just

get get further left um you know if i lost i have to loft it but again for the most part i don't like bringing equipment because i think you know those covers just this in my opinion like if you if you don't know the center you're going to like i like to know that this ball is going to hook from anywhere i don't wanna that's why you don't see a lot of tour players throw twists um but again this vibe because it is that again a little step up and i think it is a little bit closer to the web line than it is uh the raw series uh i

think this ball is is plenty has enough down lane um to to really you know make a difference i think we're going to see this one especially on some of those trickier you know patterns laden blocks like where you need a ball that's gonna make the corner uh it's really really something to enjoy and um this is really one of my first experiences with the vibe i know there's been a ton of them with the black onyx five that i think was one of the most recent ones um i know that one got a lot of love so i fully expect everybody to go check this one out um and that's really about

it man uh these these balls like again the vibe is definitely a step down the web pearl is that more of a benchmarky shade but again man they strike it on a house shot and you're gonna love it that's it until next time guys
