An idea could be to polish half the ball, and sand the other half way down to 500 (or even lower). Could even be progressed to sanding 4 quadrants of the ball all to a different surface. Polish, 2000, 1000, 500 or something like that.
@@shorty808100 right. Sanding really only matters over the track area. It will be more than a game or two before it goes back up but this ball is best shiny anyway
@@TheHouseBowling if u still got that bowling ball ill buy it off of u. Edit: I have a lot of hook with my purple hammer so I can definitely get used to this ball just the way it is. Lemme finish the video an ill put another edit in lol
2 Ideas for videos: 1. Corner pin high game against another house member/WSU Bowler -> Get TJ Rock or Mitch, where the goal is to hit the corner pins w/o hitting the 2/3 first and play for high count, bouncing as much as possible out of the back 2. This may be difficult, but: modifying/sanding a ball to the point its visibly eliptical and not so much a sphere. Then see how it goes down lane and through the pins.
I sanded one of my old and dead reactive balls down to 500 and I can actually use it off and on. Since before it would barley move. Although I would never hit a new ball with it. Even if you can bring it back up.
Packy did you just hit us with some click bait? 🧐 LOL Yes 1500 with a little lane shine on a pearl really smooths out the reaction. Great vid and as always top notch engagement with your audience.
Nice video, i subscribed. Question...During tournament, what grit do you use on Short, Medium, Long pattern with your purple hammer? Please respond for your expertise
I sanded my faball blue pearl hammer to 500 grit with creating the difference trucut sanding pads. And my dad took his ebi purple pearl hammer on a spinner with 220 grit wet sand paper and loved it ALOT same with ebi black hammer and the original black widow urethane.
Will James 1 second ago I took my black widow ghost down to 3000 and it smoothed out a tad and still was as continuous as a hot knife through butter. I absolutely love this ball!
Next video....take a black widow ghost and bring the polish to as HIGH as you can get. Like, high mirror shine, higher than 4000 if at all possible. See if you can put so much shine that it acts like a spare ball.
I used to have a 60 grit LT-48. I called it black velvet. I would use it to burn a breakpoint in during warmup on a flooded condition or use it to mess with someone's line during warmup.
@@TheHouseBowling This was on a practice night. Unfortunately the 284 came on my 5th game. My first three games were 300/246/222 - 768 series. First time hitting 750 which is great. Now im chasing that 800!!
The Brooklyn 5 Pin at 4:13, I am sorry I have to roast you on. My league in Louisville, we pay a quarter $0.25 for leaving a 5 Pin and $0.50 if you miss it. LOL Just mail that quarter on in. LOL
I just started bowling in October. Bought a rhino, was averaging 140 to 150. My fiance bought be this ball 2 weeks before Christmas and I'm averaging 180 with it and bowling a 200+ game normally once every week in league. I love the ball.
I have a Venom Shock and a Widow Ghost. The problem I run into right now is Leagues start in a couple weeks so for now I have to bowl on whatever dry to scorched conditions the lanes have, they don't oil for open play. The Shock I can do pretty good with. Low to high 180s. The Widow just grabs too hard and misses the pocket. I wanna see how it does but I have to wait. Damn it. For now I'm using my old Columbia 300 Scout from the mid nineties as a spare ball. I know if I get into tournaments I might have to actually buy a spare ball. Doubt they'd let me use it.
@@TheHouseBowling Oh, it's effective. I like it because it's pre core tech so even on dry conditions I can pick up the right side with ease. Didn't think a ball that old would be legal.
@@michaelcordes6153 Yeah, two very good friends talking a little smack and it looked to me like it kept Kris loose. Not sure if you noticed, but at the end, right after Kris won, as the camera followed him and you can see Packy in the background and the look on his face is classic.
maybe a vid of polishing a ball and stuffing the ball down to like 800 on everything except the first track? like that weird hybrid urethane reactive ball but with just modifying the surface
My ball randomly cracked after about a year not using it idk how it got a major crack all the way around idk if it was me not using it for a while or it was too hot in my room or cold I don’t know got any ideas what it could be? Also recommendations on my next ball?
Buttruff is out there saying only 180?? LOL, I heard he surfaces the hell out of his stuff, but like you said with urethane tho. I remember sanding my OG pink hammer and the first shot i threw went from the right gutter to the left and back into the right gutter, could not keep it on the lane, back then didn't have the knowledge i do now and didn't know how to fix it, miss that ball, what a waste.
Not sure if this is a good idea but you should take a strong solid and really polish it. I want to see what it will do and if you can beat your 210!! (would enjoy the Gem out there)
You have to go with the stripe to try to replicate those old 2 part gold and black debacle balls that rarely turned when you needed to be on one area of that stripe. Walter Ray killed with it but think he was only person ever to like it 😆
Roll candlepin balls down a 10 pin house!! That would be hilarious.. Aside from that, It would be interesting to see an illegal substance on the ball to make it perform differently like a ceramic coating or carnauba wax.
So that's a aggressive pearl,and that ball HOOK befor you ever change that surface..........duh !!!!!! Yup hooks even harder now! Glad your trying something other hammer tang
wouldnt sand a pearl ball to 500 but the purple Hammer is a pearl. and you are not destroying the ball. you can get it back by pulling the surface back up.

It doesn’t really matter after I think it’s four games your track area is down to about 2-3k grit
Maybe we should dump a ball in a bucket of oil and show how similar it is to out of the box ball iykyk
@@shorty808100 right. Sanding really only matters over the track area. It will be more than a game or two before it goes back up but this ball is best shiny anyway
Wouldn't be legal for play. Gotta have consistent surface grit. But I guess Packy has done stuff outside of legal for the sake of science before?

Did you have that at factory surface to start? Seemed a lot shinier than my 1500/compounded one but maybe that was the camera?
The Black Widow Ghost is another ball that senior players can roll down and in on THS, and crush it.

Love mine also
Love Keven singing
I sanded a ball down to 60 and could not keep it on the lane, also, throwing as hard as I could, I couldn’t surpass 9 mph
You could use a 180 reactive ball on badger pattern
did it make it slower?

Purple Hammer, go up from 500 grit pad to 5000 pad. Then lots of time with compound, then polish, then car polish. Bet.
Happy belated birthday pack!!
Thank you!!
Surface half the ball, sounds familiar, almost like I brought it up a couples months ago
Watching the delayed screen at the beginning is funny
Maybe drill it differently or change hand position upon release
Or I could just not hit it with 180 grit sand paper
Lmao or that 🤣

Happy late birthday Packy!
Roll candlepin balls down a 10 pin house!! That would be hilarious..

A candlepin ball could damage the machinery.
@@BornIn1500 Then you do it with the lane off or have a mechanic down behind the lane.
On the opposite side, I want to see a 15 pound ball thrown at a rack of candle pins
You should do 10 ball challenge where you use house balls and go from 6lbs to 16lbs that would be good to watch
I can't get my hands on a widow ghost and pack is "destoying" one for the lols 🤦😅
Shop near me has a ton of em in stock they shouldn’t be hard to find. Just order one and go get it drilled mane

Happy Birthday! The monitor camera from behind you guys filming in your footage, awkward.
Funny!!
Ha ha your funny with making these videos
You should def do 80 grit
Glue the pads to the ball haha
Would be interesting to see how a shiny purple hammer would perform
Go talk to Ron Hickman. He thought it necessary to do a TH-cam video on polishing a purple hammer.🤦
what size ball do you use? also do a video where you try to get a strike with every size ball
15lb ball!!!
Hit it with a 10k pad now and shine it back up
"brunswick ball" lol
Brunswick owns Hammer, Radical, DV8, Columbia 300 and Track.
@@remoevans7847 my bad
Do each side of the ball with a different grit / polish.
I might do a video with polishing the ball after 3/4000 grit
i like my B.W.Ghost with surface it was hooking too much for me
What weight is that ball
Ball is 15lbs but with the surface it kinda dies down lane and looks like 10 😂😂
2 Hand bowling tips. Coming from no thumb style
Video of the way you bring back to a surface you like...?
You better pay your girl for filming these lolol
Brunswick? Was that a troll or an oops?
i thought when the title said broken, i though the ball broke in half or chipped off
Can’t do 5 frames and use a spare ball lol I don’t think the ball is ruined but the lane surface might be damaged lol
Some guys use grit like that just not on reactive lol
Just like Brunswick did! Buy a Widow and destroy it! Buy Ebonite, and destroy it!
Take your purple hammer sand up to 4000 then polish it.
So that's a aggressive pearl,and that ball HOOK befor you ever change that surface..........duh !!!!!! Yup hooks even harder now! Glad your trying something other hammer tang

wouldnt sand a pearl ball to 500 but the purple Hammer is a pearl. and you are not destroying the ball. you can get it back by pulling the surface back up.
