I think you should go all hammer. I haven't seen the toxic in action, but I've read posts by people who have, and I'm thinking of buying one for myself. I say, go for it....

The jury is still out for me. I need to hear or learn more about it before I take the plunge. But, time is running out for me to figure out which Hammer to put on my Christmas list.

I drilled a toxic today, Rev Leverage, Pin and CG 3 3/8 from PAP ( 5 1/8 > x 1/8^) Mid line of the grip is equidistant from the pin to CG Weight hole on a line from the Center of grip through the CG Just below the VAL.
Took it out on lanes the had 3 shifts of league and some open play I had to stand on Lane 18 to throw the ball 6th arrow on 19 with some speed to keep the ball from over hooking.
Then bowled on the fresh THS was able to play up 12 with no problem.
Bowled after the first shift league tonight. I was able to start out 2 boards deeper with the feet with no problem. Then midway into the 2nd game the ball started checking up early and over hooking. Moved a couple boards further left with the feet and eyes and took some hand out of the ball and it worked just fine. The ball DEFINITELY reacts in the dry.
I will try to get some video tomorrow

Just a quick note. I used the Toxic during 2 leagues on Tuesday night
I shot 245, 235, 208 =688 for the first shift. and 210, 214, 194 = 618 for the 2nd shift.
I made some changes to my thumb pitch and started hanging up as the night went on and was struggling to get out of the ball. I definitely like the roll of the ball
