Love my hazmat. Took a bit to figure it out but hit it with 1000 and it kills all house shots. And it’s a great game 2/3 ball on sport shots when you need some angle
Glad you're loving it! And yeah, that should be an AMAZING 1-2 punch with the XLR8. I think the XLR8 was one of the best sleeper balls of this past year.
If you could find it, a good ball to compare this to would be the Hammer Scandal/S. The entire Scandal series is symmetrical, plus uses the same Semtex coverstock (The Scandal has Symtex Solid, Scandal Pearl using Symtex Pearl, and the Scandal/S using Symtex Hybrid). outside of the core and HK22, the covers would be the same, so that would give a good direct comparison.
It's a pretty clean cover, for sure. And that cover, paired with its core, produce a nice even-rolling, smooth reaction. A little abralon pad could probably get it to pick up more were you might be preferring it to.
This ball for me. Not smooth. The most snappy angular thing i have and its nkt thr layout the pin in maybe .5 inches up and over from my ring finger and thr rg is in a straight line below it
Interesting. It's been pretty smooth, but not too smooth, for some of our other bowlers at WSB. Perhaps your center has different lane material than ours?

@3:13 fantastic release at the bottom of your swing, couldn’t hear a thing. Great review.
Thank you
Joe's the silent killer

Shelf appeal is great, great video!
Thank you
Thanks!
Love the color scheme…def has shelf appeal for me. Great video btw…great comentary
Thanks!
the colors are appealing to me
Yea they definitely pop
Blue and green always look good on a ball
For me the hazmat is a sleeper for ball of the year. I’m averaging almost 238 with it
Nice! And yeah, I can definitely see how it'd be an amazing sleeper ball.
Senior using the Hazmat, Good step down from the Hellcat XLR8

We'll have to see If I can find one for Joe sometime soon. I know a few others who liked it pretty good.
Love the color choice
We like it too!
Wondering how you would compare the Hazmat to the Dark Web solid. Cleaner through the fronts with a stronger continuous arc in the back end?
Definitely cleaner in the front and middle of the lane. Dark Web solid is pretty smooth all around
Every video I’ve seen of the hazmat shows it to hit really light and deflect a lot. Kind of surprising for the HK22 cover

Do not like the cover color.
What color do you wish Hammer had chosen instead?
A dark dark red with the black or a very bright red with black
