Roto Grip Defiant Bowling Ball Review and Bowling Ball Videos

On a fresh typical house shot (THS) this ball was everything you would want. Even with its 3000 grit Abralon finish the Roto Grip Defiant bowling ball cleared the heads smoothly. It reads the lanes well, not too early and it transitioned perfectly into the middle part of the lane.

Track 508A Bowling Ball Review

Advanced performance Track bowling ball at a reasonable price. Great for medium to dry lane conditons. Looking for a great deal with a lot of hook potential? Look no further.

Jason Kosby, our Product Development Engineer, found the magic combination.

“We found that the 505A’s cover worked well with the Legion core,” expounded Kosby. “When we altered the color, it changed the chemical composition slightly. This cover works so well that it’s actually stronger off the spot than its predecessor, but it still has the angularity bowlers love.”
