Hammer Ultimatum

[PackRat]

Saw on Bowlingballreviews.com a new overseas Hammer, the Ultimatum. It has a core different from anything in the Hammer line that I have seen.

Maybe this is a glimpse of what we have in store.

That looks pretty cool.

Yes it uses the VR P coverstock, but so does the BW Pearl (and the Bite II, BTW). It's the core that would make it a different series. The gas mask core (Big Deal, Big Blue, Widow series, etc) went in to several different series. This core appears to be something totally different. Different core = Different series.

With Hammer discontinuing the NM line, I'm just suggesting that this may be a hint of what we in the States have to look forward to.

I'd be tempted to buy a closeout NM - certainly wouldn't pay full price for one.

This core has no hart! :D

This core has no hart! :D

Yeah, no HART.

The Vicious, Deal and Raw Hammer Series have had core changes. Sure I'm missing more.
