If I could bring back 1 Roto Grip ball...
« on: March 24, 2011, 08:26:04 AM »
If you could get Roto to reissue any single ball from the past, what would it be?
 
I'd love to see the SD73 Classic again, albeit I'm not sure as to what hurdles there would be to jump through due to the changes in USBC regulations...

Horizon Pearl best and most verstile ball used it for everything.

For those of us that are rotationally challenged, I would love to see the SD-73 brought out of retirement.

Although it hasn't been gone long, the RS-P would be nice.

My first pick will be the SD-73 Classic... Still have one that I use in tournaments because I don't want to wear it out...

2nd pick would be the CELL.... That ball was and still is incredible... i think those two could still do damage on the lanes...

I'm in the process of trying to find out where I fit in the bowling world. I do not know my tech specs of my game, but it's all a learning process.

I know its only been two years but I would have to say the Mercury. I have never had a more consistent ball in my bag.

This is a question I cannot answer. There are so many great Roto pieces that I love, including the RSP, Silver Streak, and the whole Horizon line!

 

If I just had to....it would be the Battle as well. One of the sneakiest, strongest pieces I have ever owned, and.....I didn't know it's versatility until I applied some polish to it!!!



@ Locke.....did you throw your Mercury WITH....or WITHOUT polish?
Duct tape is like 'The Force'. It has a light side and a dark side, but it still holds the universe together.

Either the Epic Saga or the Neptune would be on my wishlist.
