I haven't thrown the BW but the description made it sound like another medium oil ball. I was looking for something stronger for heavier oil.

I found this review to be helpful:
buddiesproshop/Hammer/HawgZilla (http://www.buddiesproshop.com/product/3211/Hammer_Hawg_Zilla_Bowling_Ball_-_FREE_SHIPPING.htm)

I'm not trying to plug buddies here, they just have accurate reviews. My hawgzilla plays exactly how they describe it.

Best of luck, I'm sure you'd be happy with either of them.

The only hammer balls I own are the original purple high rev 3d offset and the hawgzilla (love em both.)

I have a lot of revs and the zilla is very aggressive, usually anywhere near the pocket is a strike for me. At the same time, I've left a lot of splits with it too. It's great ball for somewhat heavier oil conditions.
