- Some bowling balls are gifted. They just bring a lot of value because they outperform what is typically expected from its performance category. The Scorpion Strike is one of those bowling balls. Watch the video and you'll understand why.

With the help of SPECTO data, it'll help tell the story about reaction shape, overall hook and continuation through the pins. Here are the SPECTO data points used and definition of each term:
Launch Speed - Speed measured off the hand.
Entry Speed - Speed measured at the pins. (What you'd see on your home center MPH screens)
Rev Rate - Revolutions Per Minute (RPM)
Launch Angle - The angle the ball traveled the first 10 feet.
Break Point Position - Board at which the ball was at its outermost position.
Total Hook - Total number of boards the ball crosses on the way to the pins.
Hook Power - Number of boards the ball hooked based from the True Breakpoint.
Entry Angle - The angle of the ball between 51 and 55 feet.
Impact Angle - The angle of the ball between 57 and 59.5 feet.
Pin Deck Exit - Ball position at the end of the pin deck.

was looking for a nice quality transition/burn ball with good length and back end. Hammer is right on time with this one!
Never really paid that much attention to the Scorpion series, but this one caught my eye with its backend reaction. I might get this piece.
Same here.
I have the OG scorpion as my benchmark so this would fit right up next to it. But I am curious where and if this ball would fit into your arsenal Nick? btw keep up the good work on reviews and content!! Really happy to have started watching your channel 😃
I would've loved this ball to come out sooner. This looks like an amazing ball for its price point
Commenting on what you said about waiting for the day a pin stands back up you'd cry, i was working on the front 10 after never having 300 i rolled one in the pocket so perfect the 10 pin flipped off the curtain and stood up in the 6 pin spot.....i almost had a mental breakdown..... anyway lol. I like this ball
My arsenal is sort of pearl-heavy, but man this one looks good
You and Hype Charles on the same ball schedule? Lol
Love to see multiple reviews on all these balls. Great stuff BrunsNick!
@@thestonesaver6345 we copy eachothers homework 😎
This ball lists for $145.00! Looks great. HK22, pearl, 1500, compound, nice big core. I’m looking for a new piece just because. And after seeing it in action, this could be it.
Nick, you are aces my friend! I have an OG Scorpion that I love. This will be a perfect companion to it. Thanks for sharing as always!
Nick, I once had a pin slide into the channel while upright, bounce off the wall and back into the channel, then settle back on the lane standing up - this occurred in game 1. In game 3 I had a pin richochet off the wall sideways but stand up spinning like crazy, eventually coming to a stop about 3 feet in front of the sweep and in front of the 3 pin. I didn't cry but came real close - two of the most unlucky breaks occurring on the same night. It happened nearly 50 years ago but I remembrer it like yesterday. Ugh!!!
Can’t wait for mine!
About 40 years ago my dad had a pin come out of the pit on a strike, go through the sweep and stand up in the middle of the lane. 3 months ago I had the headpin hit the left wall and stand up where the 7 pin was. I normally video my practices but wasn't that time.
About a decade ago, I had a pin bounce out of the pit after a flush strike, only to dance and spin around across the pin deck and settle in on the 2-pin spot.
On the outside, I was laughing in shock and disbelief…but internally, I wanted to fight somebody.
Wow that ball hooks for a symmetric pearl, even when going left on less than ideal conditions.
This Ball hits exceptionally hard!
Great video Nick! You the man!
Been very interested in this one
Looking at my Scorpion Sting, Scorpion Hybrid and Scorpion LF wondering where this new Scorpion fits into my arsenal...
I know my wallet doesn't need a new ball that doesn't do something really different from what I already own.
Love the colors and am very curious about adding an HK22 into my collection but I may pass on this one. I am very happy with my Sting so I don't think I need a replacement for that.
I do love those colors though. Hammer has some of the best looking balls on the market. My green smoke Web Pearl is beautiful and a very solid performer as well.
Thanks BrunsNick for another great review! Never considered any of the Scorpions but this one is definitely going on my list. Hopefully I can get it before going to nationals near the end of July.
Cool video talk tech bowling ball brunsnick
I take it back 😅
Your crown jewel pattern is different compared to the 2012 pattern in the pattern library drop box
Thanks for adding that to the video
Good video, enjoyed watching oh well this one responds to little changes like that, unrelated note but i know y’all putting that HK22 base on everything and for some reason something popped into my noggin, what if y’all slapped the NU cover stock on the Gas Mask core? Don’t know if that might happen but hey i would definitely love to see how a ball like that reacts!
pretty much a web tour pearl with hk22 and a touch less core.. maybe? better continuation through pins
Great looking ball, thanks for the demo in multiple zones, I also loft the ball naturally, I have tried not to, but then my accuracy dropped, your demos are my favorite. 👍
@@scenicmyles thank you!
How does this compare to the low fare hammer released a while back
This is cleaner and more backend, the low flare is better playing straighter since it’s smoother.
@@brunsnick perfect thank you
Ok nick which way to hammer scorpion strike new Hammer Hazmat or Hammer effect not to mention excited to see this New Brunswick Mesmerize 4 color with new tri core and the new Atlas 😮😮😮 my head is dizzy another great video Nick
I'm getting a crypto boom vibe, it's a pretty ball but the low flare was also purple
Most balls should behave the way you want as long as you throw it the right way. 👍
Nothing hits like a HAMMERRRRR
Can someone please answer why bowlers blow in their thumb holes? I notice some do, some don't, some do it every shot, others it seems random. Im assuming its in case something gets in there, but that seems so far fetched to me.
It gives you a little time to grip so you won't drop it then you can put tape later if needed
Moisture from your breath makes the thumbhole tackier to give them a little more grip, to prevent the ball from slipping off their hand. I personally can't stand moisture getting in my...*ahem* hole. I try not to grip the ball too much with the thumb anyway.
@@steadfasttinsoldier5228 THANK YOU! Ive asked that question a dozen times and no one will answer (which I find odd) That makes sense but would drive me crazy. Im the same, any moisture and I have to back off, wipe my thumb off, wipe out the thumb hole etc. Personally, it drives me nuts hearing that sound every shot on these channels. Not so much on this channel, but others its just annoying. Maybe now that I know why it wont bug me.
Thanks again.
Moisture
Moisture, and I also use slide so I blow it to get the excess out of there
Interesting
This ball looks nice. How does it compare to the DV8 chill pearl? Would both fit in the bag?
@@E3cubed pick either or. No need for both.
Nick’ the break away or the scorpion strike ? For league.
@@remington1439 Either are great league balls. For me personally I like quicker response and I’m bias towards pearls.
How do you compare this ball with the new vibe artic is it stronger? I am looking for a good companion for my widow 3.0,thanks
@@AMERICOBECKS stronger than Vibes. You’d need a ball like Hazmat original to go between 3.0 and this Scorpion. Too much gap just the 2.
This vs the orange Fireball? 🧐
@@gabebennett818 this is stronger by a fair amount.
Nick, how does this compare to the DV8 Chill?
currently have a widow 3.0, scorpion, raw solid, kinetic black ice. do you think this ball could replace the black ice? i typically bowl on house shots but im venturing into more sport leagues/tournaments
@@justin6740 this would probably be a small step down from Kinetic. A little cleaner, maybe sharper on back as the lanes break down.
Hammer effect or Scorpion strike for league?
@@eww8899 if you throw it harder, Effect. If you’re slower speed, the. Scorpion Strike
