Ball review:

My Taboo is drilled like my first two Mission $250K, and it’s also the ball that comes closet in reaction. I’m sure I’ll be happy with my new Taboo.

The Taboo Jet Black goes a bit longer than the Mission $250K, but with a stronger backend. Even though this is still a very controllable ball and it’s a ball that will fit many bowlers, because it’s strong and can be used on both medium and long profiles.

Ball review:

The best Taboo to date!

The Taboo line has always been great fun to test for me, as each of the balls has been quite different when it comes to ball motion. They have all been a bit different from everything else in the market, which have been resulting in many victories of great players with these balls. However, I must admit that after a short amount of games, the ball motion changes for me and I haven’t used it as much afterwards.

The drilling of this ball (favorite layout) was thus with mixed emotions. So far, it has been truly amazing and again something that you are not able to see at the other brands. This ball is longer and stronger in the backend, and exceptional for when the lanes burns down. I was crazy about the Black Widow, and the Taboo Jet Black contain parts from this epic ball which makes that I can recognize some of the same ball motion.

NB: Remember to do maintenance of the ball regularly.

Ball review:

This ball is just fantastic. A ball motion that I have been missing a bit. Really clean thru the fronts and mids but still loads of hook.

I have been able to use this ball on many different patterns and I am impressed how versatile this ball is.

I shot 299 and 300 at this year’s Ballmaster Open with this ball and I am sure more to come……

Ball review:

It’s about time Hammer put out an all black solid ball! This third (4th if you count the Taboo Spare) installment in the Taboo is for me the most versatile. It has just the right amout of skid, midlane and backend to be useful on different patterns and angles. It reads the front part of the lane like the Pearl Taboo, it reads the midlane like the original Taboo and backends like a nice mix of the two first Taboos.
