Title: Epic Battle mini review.
Post by: Next Level PS on February 23, 2006, 02:18:43 PM
I had drill this ball for a new Roto-Grip staffer Jeff Butler.
 his profile is
PAP: 5 1/8 over 3/8 up
tilt 24 degrees
rotation: 35 degrees
revrate: 350
speed : 19mph
Layout on this ball is 4 3/4 X 4 1/2 X 3 1/4 above the midline
he threw this on fresh house pattern and  the ball was clean through the fronts very angular on the back which is very suprising for a particle ball. This ball can play on the heaviest of pattern. the only draw back is the color of grey thats on the ball other than that this ball is a beast when you have a decent amount of head oil. The Epic and Epic ballte are great 1-2 punch when playing on the oily condition.

Congrats to Jeff on the new staffing.  I got to bowl with him a few years back when he was bowling collegiately and he's a hell of a bowler and a good guy to boot.  He'll definately make the company look impressive with his skills and demeanor.

Taking this baby down to the Nationals this weekend !
I do have about the same layout, and without some
surface adjustments, this ball really covers some
boards. I am thinking of taking it to a 2000 Abralon
and leaving it at that. Maybe some polish will also
do the trick.

Great ball by Roto !

Update:

I drilled one these up tonite for a huy by the name of Noah Lynch, he went out onthe lanes in the friday nite majors leauge here at Hy-way lanes Hot on the drill press he went 277, 300 and 239 for a 816 series. I tell you guys that this ball is awesome. with this ball having only 1% particle it does not burn up in the fronts. looking for some this for heavy oil this is the ball.
