well, it all depends on the weight of that particular shark, as it can be very difficult to catch and weight a great hammerhead shark, marine biologists have limited information as to the wieght that these creatures can reach. As for the bullshark, they are much more common and marine biologists have a greater knowledge of their size and weight, as they are often mistaken for a great white, i would say that the bullshark generally weights more, but as the great hammerhead is more rare, there could be individuals that weight more.

How are hammerheads endangered?

Hammerheads are one of the medium sized species of sharks, which make them an easy target for fishermen. Their fins are a delicacy. As a result of overfishing, hammerhead numbers have fallen drastically in many of their habitats. Fishermen usually cut off their fins and toss the remainder of the fish into the sea to die a horrible death. Loss of habitat is another danger to these sharks. Because of widespread uncontrolled hunting, hammerheads are considered an "endangered" species. Unless hunting them is stopped soon, these species may become extinct very soon.
