Default Florida Hammerhead Captures 895 Series With Black Widow

Wednesday, 03/19/2008
HOPKINSVILLE, Kent.—Once again the Black Widow has solidified its reputation as a deadly competitor and unstoppable force on the lanes, no matter the conditions!

On March 4, Hammerhead Andy Vanostrand rolled a high series of 895 (296-299-300) with his brand new Black Widow ball at the South Florida Masters’ TRIO league at Strikers Family SportsCenter in Sunrise, Fla. The ball has just been drilled at the Precision Pro Shop in Boca Raton, Fla., before the competition that night.

“It was an amazing feeling,” said Vanostrand. “The Black Widow navigates the lanes well and hits the pins with a lot of energy left. I just kept thinking ‘one shot at a time’.”

Vanostrand has bowled with Hammer for years and rolled a previous high series of 863 in March 2004. He has been a member of the TRIO league for five years, where his current average is 228. He has also been a member of the bowling center’s Mixed Nuts league for eight years.

Nothing Hits Like a Hammer®. For more information on Black Widow or to find the pro shop nearest you, visit the Goods section of www.hammerbowling.com. Hammer is headquartered in Hopkinsville, Kent.

I'm guessing you bowled in the "mixed nuts" league.

Anyway awsome shooting, nothing could justify a new ball more than dropping a near 900 out of the box!

Rolled in The Mens Classic on Friday night and then they used to have an awesome sweeper on Saturday night. Deadly serious bowling. Try looking at the next lane and swearing that that guy looked like Brian Voss. Oops. It IS Brian Voss! Talk about pressure.

Those scores just go to show that the BWS can still get it done. I don't belive we've got all the potential out of that ball yet. I might start out with a different ball,but when it comes down to crunch time,I'm reaching for a BWS to bring home the bacon.
