Roto Grip Hustle VP Bowling Ball

Love the ball and as usual drilled for a perfect fit

The new Hustle VP features the tried-and-true Hustle core wrapped in the VTC Reactive Pearl coverstock finished with Power Edge. At 15 pounds the RG is 2.53 and the differential is .030. Drilled at 5x4x2 (pin above bridge) this ball is excellent on drier conditions. The pearl cover and low differential make this an easy ball to use when the lanes start to get burned up. I am still able to play further right in the drier part of the lane and the Hustle VP does not overreact. It provides great length with a medium-quick response on the backend. This Hustle creates a good entry angle into the pocket providing outstanding pin action. The color mix of this Hustle has outstanding shelf appeal. If you are looking for a great performance ball at a low price, the Hustle line will not disappoint.

Layout: 4 x 4 x 1 1/2 Surface: Power Edge Rev Rate: 470 Tilt: 13* The Hustle series is back with the new VP Pearl! The proven Hustle core is back with the VTC Pearl Coverstock finished with Power Edge. The Power Edge finish gives that length that new bowlers and competitive bowlers are looking for on medium to lighter oil. On my typical house condition, I saw very clean in the front, a good amount of length and a smoother backend for this pearl Hustle. The White/Orange colors usually add to smoother ball motion. I see this here with this Hustle Pearl. Smoother than the previous pearl versions but still with the same proven performance. Removing the Power Edge will allow it to be used more on the fresh and keeping the box finish will be for more length and backend. Compared to the Hustle SOS, I saw about 4 boards of less total hook and about 2 more feet of length. Although still smoother, it angles a little harder than the SOS. If you are looking for a more skid Hustle, I would look for previous versions especially the Hustle Wine. Adam Chase Storm Staff

The new Roto Grip Hustle VP is everything you'd want from the Hustle line—clean through the front, easy to control, and surprisingly strong off the spot. It clears the heads with ease, reads the midlane without overreacting, and gives me a smooth, predictable motion that keeps me in play when the lanes start to transition. Whether I'm bowling league or tournaments, it's a ball I can trust to blend out the pattern while still carrying the corners. It's quickly become one of the first balls I reach for when I need consistency.

The Hustle VP features the VTC (Versatile Traction Control) pearl coverstock. The layout on this is 4 3/4 x 4 3/4 x 2 1/4. Provides me length and a controllable motion for a weaker core and coverstock, and it’s not sideways off the spot. Definitely a ball to go down to from the Hustle SOS, and the dreamsicle color looks amazing going down the lane. Definitely a great ball to have a such a very low price point.

Hustle VP is the newest pearl Hustle colorway! The Hustle line is legendary for providing a tour-shape in a slightly weaker package at a great price point. VP continues that legacy. This is the perfect ball for that last game of league after you've beaten the lanes up with that big solid, or for travel league when you bowl at that one center in town that still has wood lanes or doesn't put out more than 20 mLs. The Hustle line has been a secret weapon for friction, and a way to play straighter on short or flat conditions. The VP continues the trend of Hustle's outperforming their price point, offering a great ball for beginners, and a great bottom-of-the-bag option for high level players.

Like its newly released brother, the Hustle SOS, the Hustle VP features an exciting, proven core and energetic coverstock combination that keeps the Hustle line among the best level-one balls on the market! The Hustle VP is not only vibrant thanks to its new VTC Pearl coverstock, but the excellent combination of the Hustle Core and VTC Pearl coverstock also makes it a wonderful ball for nearly any bowler to add to their arsenal. So, let’s take a closer look at where the dynamic Hustle VP belongs in your arsenal. The Hustle Core is a proven staple that has earned the respect of the bowling industry. Its balanced shape and medium RG and Diff specifications make any Hustle a predictable, smooth-rolling ball. What I like about the Hustle Core is that, as a straighter player who tends to miss right, it creates a motion that gives me plenty of recovery room without being too aggressive on the back end. Because it rolls smoothly and remains balanced, I can depend on the Hustle Core to retain a good amount of energy, helping me save those softer hits that normally leave corner pins. Lastly, as a straighter, low-rev player, I can rely on the Hustle Core in any lane condition to provide a predictable motion that pulls me out of trouble. The VTC (Versatile Traction Control) Pearl coverstock is not only vibrant in color but also makes the Hustle VP a dynamic powerhouse for any bowler’s arsenal. The VTC Pearl is clean through the front of the lane and provides crisp traction in the mid-lane. That “crisp” traction allows the Hustle VP to get down the lane with authority and gives it a good amount of punch as it enters the pocket! I found the VTC Pearl to be pretty stable off the pattern in fresh THS conditions, but I did find the VTC can get a bit jumpy off the spot when the conditions start to break down. However, with my older classic down-and-in approach, a light surface tweak to 4000-grit Abralon gave my Hustle VP a very predictable and stable motion off the pattern in late-night conditions. So, if you’re an advanced bowler, I suggest that when you consider where you want to use the Hustle VP, you tweak your surface accordingly, as this will provide you with the best possible success for your game. In closing, the Roto Grip Hustle VP is a great combination of the Hustle Core and VTC Pearl coverstock, bringing success to bowlers at any level or style. New bowlers will love the smooth motion and vibrant look the Hustle VP brings to their game, and seasoned bowlers will appreciate how it delivers the smooth, predictable motion they can depend on to keep them striking as the competition goes on. So, stop in at your local Strom VIP Pro Shop today and see where the Hustle VP will fit in your arsenal! The Hustle VP is far beyond an entry-level bowling ball; it is a vibrant workhorse that will elevate any bowler’s game, making it a great choice!
