Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
A really old school feel.
Not my first ball, but a great way for me to get back into bowling again. 145 avg.bowler. It works like "old school" balls... not a big "fishhook" ball, just a nice simple one with a very favorable "twist" at the end, in case you need it... pure, simple stuff. I like it.

What does entry level mean?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Hi Twig, There are five categories of bowling ball performance levels. Plastic/spare balls, Entry-level, mid performance, upper-mid performance, and high performance which are determined by the coverstock, core, recommended lane conditions, and hook potential. Entry-level balls are typically best for light to medium oil lane conditions, very low hook potential, and available in lighter weights.

Is the hammer raw a plastic ball
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
No, the Hammer Raw will have a reactive resin coverstock. The Hammer Raw Hybrid Red/Smoke/Black has a hybrid reactive coverstock but there are some other types of reactive coverstocks for the Raw series if you wanted a solid or pearl reactive instead.
