I know it’s been done here before, ,but not in awhile, maybe some of your favorites have changed with all the new pieces that have come out recently.My all-time favorite is still the outlaw, with the global assault second and third is the critical theory. Great old pieces.
-
All Out Showoff, Nomad Dagger and Mystic.
-
Kind of a tie for me, but the original Cell and Cell Pearl
-
Aw man! So many great Roto Grip pieces! This is a hard one but I'll say:
Horizon, Nomad solid, and Outlaw!!
Even though I shot 300 with a Theory! Waited too long to get a Mystic and settled for the Horizon.
-
For me, it's the Nomad Dagger. I still have one as a bail me out ball.
Honorable mentions would be the Defiant and the Rising Star. The Defiant was a great heavy oil ball for me and loved how consistent it was. The Rising Star was versatile and loved throwing that on a variety of patterns.
-
Silver Streak SE, Cell Pearl, and Nomad Dagger all stand out.

@Tommyboy74:
That Defiant series was really something! I should have archived each and every one of the balls they released in that series. I had a Defiant Edge that was the ONLY ball I could depend on, in a house that used heavy oil! Agreed! Those balls were very consistent.
-
Hands down--Critical Theory-which cracked!!! :( :( :(
-
OG Cell and Nomad Solid.
-
Totally Defiant. I'm still holding out hope that they will bring back the Paragon core.
-

I second; Best balls ever, imo.
-
Defiant. Hell of a ball!
-
I feel your pain don. My critical theory cracked as well. Good luck finding another one (new) No ball hit harder than the CT for me as long as there was oil up front. Ball was a truck.
-
Apocalypse!!
-
RSP, Particle Pearl. Had a 300/800 and a 299 before it cracked. :(
-
Disturbed, hyper cell skid, epic saga, mystic, daredevil
-
RUSH

To me, the Silver Streak solid was one of Roto Grip's greats from 20 years ago similarly to Ebonite's V2 Vortex and AMF's Nighthawk. Roto Grip has had some great mid-priced solid reactives over the years. The Outlaw Remake and the Disturbed are the most notable ones.
-
Rogue Cell
RST X-2 has been really good for me lately
-
Silver Streak SE for me, probably. Retro Resurrection was also good. The Mystic was probably the most underrated and the one I can't believe didn't catch on more than it did.
Of more recent stuff, I really like my Nuclear Cell. The RST X-1 has the chance to crack the list, as does the UC3.

It is between the hyper cell skid and defiant
-
SD-73
-
I’m surprised no one has mentioned the blue retro roto yet, that was probably my fourth choice for best Roto grip ball of all time. Great ball for medium/dry lane conditions.
-
Original Cell- huge leap in technology for Utah that release marked an era that propelled them to top of the market.
Infinite theory scoring- 244 300 300 844 set for me.
Wrecker- really got me to focus at filling my bag from the bottom up.
Shout-best low end ball I've ever thrown
Just realized on I made an awesome 4 pack of balls.
-
Nice lineup dozer. Theory series was awesome.
-
DEFIANT SOUL
-
UpRoar
-
Either of the Infinite or Critical Theory for me. Outcry also was excellent in my bag for years.
-
Disturbed
-
Silver Streak
-
I've only drilled 3. The Gold Hustle I drilled a few months ago is beautiful, and a great ball. It's my pick
-
Hustle INK and OG Idol are my top balls of all time in their respective categories, with the Idol being my favorite ball of all time, but if the Helios settles like the Idol does It could very well take that spot.
-
Defiant,shot a 300 and 800 with it.
-
Mystic, ball was titties.
