Roto Grip Question?????????
« on: February 08, 2015, 10:23:39 PM »
Need to fill a void in the lower end of my arsenal, was going to purchase an outcry and uproar. My question is are these 2 balls mainly medium oil rollers or light oil rollers. I know Roto is a lot stronger than advertised so what do you all think?

Also was going to pick up an asylum on closeout. Why wasn't this ball very popular, maybe color combo? I watched numerous vids on this ball and it looks very good. Any info on this ball would help also help. Likes or dislikes?

since no one has mentioned the uproar i'll throw in my two cents. it can have a very skid flip/ hockey stick reaction with anything close to a strong drilling. if you  look strictly at its specs and that roto has it classified as a hp2 line you might think that it is a weaker ball when in fact it is a lot stronger than advertized. because of the low diff and medium rg it gets down the lane easily on the average pattern but when it touches a dry board it can and will cover quite a few boards very quickly, most of them on the backend. i had to plug and redrill mine with almost a 5" pin placement to make it more readable while still maintaining the length that i like about it

Well the uproar is a no brainer, now I just have to decide between outcry which was my original chose or the asylum which it seems everyone agrees that it is a great mid ball.

I have the asylum my daughter has the outcry. It really depends on what your playing on and how you prefer to play. The outcry likes a little less oil and you can flip it out a little more. The asylum handles more oil but plays better with straighter lines at least for me.
