The [bowlingball value="8936"/] is an upcoming advanced performance bowling ball that is set to release in late November. Continuing on the Nomad theme of bowling balls, this polished hybrid reactive bowling ball should be a great compliment to the Nomad bowling ball line.

[bowlingball value="8935,i150"/]

The [bowlingball value="8935"/] is a new release in the Cell Line of bowling balls. Roto Grip may be changing the name and going with a more mathematical line of names. Notice the Sigma symbol in the logo of the Theory. I am excited to try the new release. Once I get a chance to throw the ball, we will release the video and reviews. Should be in the next few weeks.

The [bowlingball value="7625"/] is the next in the Cell line of bowling balls. The [bowlingball value="7625,ps"/] is one of the strongest bowling balls to come out. You are going to want oil under this bowling ball or a little polish on the sanded Cytoplasmic XL coverstock as it is meant for Heavy Oil.

Roto-Grip is about to release the next version of their Cell brand of bowling ball – The Rogue Cell. The Cell and Cell Pearl have been wildly popular in the bowling leagues around me. I can’t wait for this newest edition to hit the lanes on March 12, 2009.

As usual, we will try to get video and reviews written as soon as possible.

Great Night of Bowling: 590

John Congdon — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 11:23:51 +0000

Our bowling team finally took 7 points last night by winning all 3 games on our Thursday Night Men’s League.

I personally made a big change in my approach last night which caused me to play much farther left than I am used to. But it was a great change. My bowling ball reaction was so much better than usually. I was way more consistent and only threw a handful of awful shots.

I started out the first game with my [bowlingball value="6695"/]. I felt like I was making nice shots, but with a couple of pulled splits, I ended the game with a score of 175. Like normal, if I don’t like my bowling ball reaction, then I try a different ball in my fill shot of the 10th.

Brian Halstrom helped me choose which bowling ball to change to. He said I should try the [bowlingball value="6303"/] on the same line, but stay aggressive. I did and CRACK, strike.

I stayed with the [bowlingball value="6303"/] for the final two games, only moving two boards left throughout the games. The second game I scored a 202, and finished the night with a 213.

Overall, I have to credit the change in my game to moving back about two feet on the approach. This helped me increase my bowling ball’s speed, but it did more than that. I believe that it really helped improve my timing, which gave me great ball reaction.

Roto-Grip Cell Pearl Ball Review

John Congdon — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 20:30:19 +0000

The [bowlingball value="6695"/] is the follow up to the original [bowlingball value="6053"/]. It features a pearl reactive coverstock in place of the solid reactive coverstock.

Pin to PAP(4 1/4″ over 0″ up/down) – 4″
Mass Bias Position – 4″ from PAP
Pin Buffer – 1 1/2″
Balance Hole – none

Surface Preparation – Box Finish

My Personal Review: I really liked the way this ball rolls. Not only does it look great going down the lane, it also has the strongest backends of any of the equipment in my bag. I am currently a 188 avg bowler that normally starts out standing 20 playing 10 at the arrows. With this ball I am starting out standing at least 25 playing around 15.

Review of Cell Pearl

John Congdon — Sat, 13 Sep 2008 01:24:33 +0000

[bowlingball value="6695,i150r"/]

My initial review of the [bowlingball value="6695"/] is that the ball is very good. I did not score well and I am a little frustrated with my lack of proper movement on the lane last night. I thought about it after league and realized there are many things I would have changed. I would like to test these before giving my final review.

I can comment on the look of the bowling ball. It was awesome going down the lane. I really liked the over all reaction of the ball, I was just playing it too far outside and not giving it a fair shake in the oil. I will fix this and get a complete review of the [bowlingball value="6695"/] up next week.

Testing the Roto-Grip Cell Pearl

John Congdon — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 19:59:11 +0000

[bowlingball value="6695,i150r"/]

I am excited to bowl tonight. I get to test Roto-Grip’s newest release that comes out October 13, 2008, the [bowlingball value="6695"/]. I know that the original [bowlingball value="6053"/] was a fantastic bowling ball. I can only assume that the new bowling ball is going to go a little longer because of the pearlized coverstock and possibly store more energy for a great back end hook.

I am going to drill the ball with the #1 drilling layout. This layout has the Pin and Mass Bias 4″ from my PAP. I will post my review of the [bowlingball value="6695"/] tomorrow.
