Ooo the deadly aim is back. This is one I would definitely like to try out

[toddgeers]

It's an awesome ball, mine hits like a truck

[DLP]

OOooh the Deadly Aim. The hubby wanted this ball but couldn't justify it after buying three other ones :)

[Blacksox1]

Hammer Deadly Aim. I am in. Hybrid reactive cover that is polished ! May a board member win this ball. Good luck to us ! :)

[foreverincamo]

I watched guy throwing one of these the other day while I was practicing. It went a good ways down the lane before hooking hard. Carried quite well. I'll take one for sure!

May a board member win this ball. Good luck to us ! :)
Hear hear! Good luck to us all. This would be an extremely nice win.

[rv driver]

I'd give this ball a try, myself.

[Amyers]

Well hello RV we thought you had disappeared

[Jaescrub]

That's right we need to bring the wins back to the Boards. Stop this Face book Winning streak dead in its tracks. Maybe we should all email and request that only board members win. It's not like members here can win the Bowlingball.com give always just by posting here ;)

[Amyers]

I think we are pretty lucky they are giving away a ball a week I'm not sure it's a good time to be stating conditions

[Jaescrub]

Why not? We can ask no harm in that. The worst that can be said is No. Or no response. Really the FB wins are not doing much for them. They give a ball out but do the FB leaches know that this is apart of Bowlingball.com? Do they know that hey you won a ball from bowling boards so next ball you order would you consider bowling ball.com? I see it making it harder or bowling boards to get more members. Why join and be a member if you have better odds on winning on Facebook. I know we are very lucky to have this. Maybe I just have salt in my boots cuz I wanted last week win real bad. Ha ha ha. But at the same time I'm looking out for all board members with my last post.

[Amyers]

I understand how you feel but how many people start on the facebook page that join us here? They could always decide to only do it once a month or not at all. Ball reviews.com recently quit their monthly give away.

I agree that we participate much more and most likely purchase more equipment from them than the Facebook guys do. I know I have ordered three times from them since I won. The thing you have to consider if you get them in the mood to change something when was the last time things changed for the better?

Maybe they agree with you and only give it away to .com members but it's only once a month are you better off? When was the last contest that you entered that gave anything this valuable away that you actually knew people that won much less had won yourself?

All I'm saying is don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

[Jaescrub]

I was with you till the last part. I have a great track on winning. I have won 8 bowling balls alone in the last year. I just happened to give them away to teammates and family. Now tht I have done all the giving Im out to win one for my self ha ha. Any day now I hope. But I feel ya. I would give up the once a week to lose the FB people in a hartbeat. ;)

[coreyds012778]

I got an chance to try one a deadly aim, see why a good number of people use it. i liked it better then I thought I would.

as for fb, I sign up for the drawing every week and on here. I found the board first. for me just an extra chance.

[jnv32185]

I found out about this website from the Facebook Page so I understand what you are saying. At the same time I rather see less FB winners. I think a great idea would be to do 2 give-a-ways a month instead of every week. One strictly for the forum members and one that includes the FB fans, that is just my opinion.

All I'm saying is don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
I agree it is an amazing thing that they do. Giving away anything at all now a days is very rare.

[AngieHall]

I think a deadly aim would improve my average. I currently use a karma solid and either something is wrong with it or it was drilled in the wrong spot because it simply does not hook like it is supposed to. I think Deadly aim would help me out.

As for fb people, I do try to win there as well, but I do participate on the boards too. I am not as active as some but am a little more active than others. I don't have much time for the computer between work, volunteering for Special Olympics, and getting our new house ready to move into and then we will be moving. I have learned a lot on this board though. And I've gotten a lot of support :) It is always much appreciated :)

[Shaneshu87]

the Deadly Aim was a great ball in my bag i wish i hadn't sold mine, but it was a money issue, wish i could win another this ball is missed!

[shortstack]

I can only say if the Deadly Aim is half the ball my Arson is, it would be awesome. I inherited my Arson from my husband who said "I can't get any carry with this new Hammer" so now, it's MINE. I Love It!! I believe I would love that Deadly Aim as well.

[ragstormfan]

Not having had a chance to throw a Hammer for a while, and with there being no way I'll spend $165 for one. Although I'll drop $191 on a NIB Critical Theory just yesterday!!! LOL

[manke]

I won the deadly aim on here and you guys wont be disapointed!!

[MICHAEL]

I won the deadly aim on here and you guys wont be disapointed!!

Actions speak louder then words, ask Aslan!!!! The deadly aim is truly a weapon of Choice for Ice.. ! Make that Deadly Aim the weapon its designed to be, and maybe you will be on the Mudpuppy/Iceman team nest spring/summer in Vegas!! I have 2 deadly aims, and belive me,,,,, they are deadly, each in their own secret way!

CAUTION: make sure when you use the Deadly Aim,,, to only use it on opponents that deserve Deadly Force!! Its a killer on most lanes!!!

[bubba809]

After all I'm hearing about this ball, I would absolutely love to have it. Sounds like a very destructive coverstock.

[RichRay]

I see the Aim all over the League, Great Ball....Got to get me one of these !!!

Would love the Aim so I can retire the Quantum and be a complete Hammer Head !!!

Arsenal right now is: Quantum 2.0, First Blood, Taboo (Gen 1)

[foreverincamo]

Hey Manke, have you used the ball you won?

The question is though, how many that have won on FB have came here and began to take part in the topics? Honestly it does not look like much. Yet on the flipside it seems like alot of people of FB have been winning recently? Yet in the rules it states that you have to be active here to win if I am reading it correctly, and that your posts are the entry. Either way I just hope to win one day :)

[YODA]

My Cousin just got one, and he said the same thing, its the hardest hitting ball he owns.... Would be a good ball for me for sure as I have a problem getting speed on the ball lately.

[foreverincamo]

Funniest shot I've seen this year was with the Deadly Aim. Guy on next lane tried to clear some dead wood out of his left channel. His misguided attempt caused his ball to ramp out of his left channel into my right channel, skipped across my lane and into my left channel. His next attempt was thwarted when his companion hit the reset button and the sweep stopped the pin and the ball.

[foreverincamo]

I recently realized how fun it is to look at a ball return with 10 balls on it during league play and see all the different balls. No two match anymore. I remember watching my Dad bowl in his league and every guy having to search for his black ball with his name on it.

The senior league that my grandma bowls in is the same way... Every one of the ladies has a pink or purple ball I took my grandmas ball and had betty boop painted on it for her so she can tell it is her ball.

me wanty

[bigjimbo316]

Would love to win this. Hammer is and has always been my favorite brand. I've been throwing a Hammer Raw Anger for quite a long time now. Perhaps a new upgrade would be due.

[Jaescrub]

So who won this any ways ;)

[Aslan]

Hopefully Iceman...because he really needs another Deadly Aim!

One night in league there were 3 hyper cells on the rack and it drove me nuts every time I was up. I had to pick out that color variation or grip colors.
