Roto Grip Exotic Gem Review

hello and welcome to our report card for the Exotic gem if you haven't seen one of these before basically what I do is go back and revisit a ball that's been out for a few months to check in see how popular it's been see if I got it right in the review and report on how much we've used it and what it's best at some people want to have certain balls as soon as they come out while other people will wait for a few months to judge the reception and staying power also since it is a report card I will actually be giving out grades kind of we're going to have a little more fun with it going forward before we get started big shout out and thanks as always to Royal Crest Lane they're a big part of bringing

and we'll say it again the Exotic is absolutely exactly what you would expect out of a pearl gem same gem reaction just longer sharper and a touch weaker if anything this makes the Exotic more versatile than the gem because even if you polish the gem it still kind of wants to be a tank the Exotic can be every bit as strong as the gem with some surface but without being quite so early and smooth the bowling math doesn't always work out expectations on paper verse reaction on the lane can be quite different but in this case it works out exactly the way it should

for a full reaction analysis and righty vers Lefty breakdown definitely check out the foreview this at least gives you a general look at both sides sides on a couple different patterns with different surfaces but this video isn't for digging deep just checking in the Exotic is a ball that takes a look like the altered reality or eternity and beefs it up more traction earlier reaction little less shape it's definitely playable on a house shot you just need speed or a solid amount of oil and it's especially good on heavier sport patterns if the pros haven't made that clear by now uh we've seen a lot of it on both

professional tours for me as we go to the new Kool-Aid meter to rank them it comes in at a seven on the left on this side it's virtually unth for me you can see that even with straight flagging out of it from fourth Arrow it's still chugging slowing down reacting very strongly and going through the pin well it looks great there's just no reason for me to have to get this deep and be this gentle with a ball just to keep it off the headpin when I have other stuff that fits better the likelihood of me needing a ball like this is very low I have a higher rev

rate and a more rolly game than most lefties so this isn't me saying it isn't a lefty ball period it's just not a me Lefty ball it would fit plenty of typical up theboard Strokers who need a nice blend of traction hook roll and shape on the right side easy9 it's nice the blend I just mentioned makes it super comfy as a righty righties have earlier but smoother reaction so while it's more Dynamic on the left it's pretty buttery on the right and it looks just as good on the sport pattern I do have the full review linked at the end

if you want to take a look and both balls are drilled with exactly the same layout Lefty and righty specific of course if I'd have been able to make it work righty again I'd have been throwing this a lot it's such a nice blend to Lane control and effective shape I love this little fallback fade shot through the middle and this is just the perfect type of ball to do that with it's still going to be really strong for most people but I've seen a lot of these in play and they look just as good for the average League crowd as they do for the pros it's a very well balanced ball that plays well in a lot more situations than it really should check out the
