The Hustle Earth is going to be a great ball for all bowlers. The color combination looks really cool and the finish on it makes it stand out more than if this color combination was used with a polish. As far performance it gave me exactly what I knew it would a nice smooth and controllable motion. As I tell most of my customers Hustles are a great ball for its price point when compared to Tropical Surges and Raws. They are so reliable that even the pros will use them on TV shows.

As a bowler who thrives on reliability when the lanes start to break down, the Roto Grip Hustle Earth has become a key piece in my late-game arsenal. Featuring the proven Hustle™ Core with an RG of 2.53 and a differential of 0.030, this ball delivers a smooth, controlled motion that shines on light to medium oil conditions. The VTC™ Solid Reactive coverstock, finished at 2000-grit Abralon, gives the Hustle Earth an earlier read in the midlane and a smooth, predictable backend that’s perfect when control is more important than raw angle. Compared to other balls in the Hustle line, the Earth offers a bit more traction than the Xray, Glow or M-M, making it ideal for controlling over/under or flattening out the reaction late in blocks. Whether you're a newer player building a reliable lineup or a veteran looking for a controllable solid when the pattern is fading, the Hustle Earth offers outstanding value and dependable performance.

Layout: 4 1/2 x 3 x 2 Surface: 2000 Abralon Rev Rate: 470 RPM Tilt: 13* The Hustle Solid is brought back again with colors of the Earth. The VTC Solid coverstock is used again on top of the Hustle Core. The core has a 2.53 RG and 0.030 differential in 15 pounds. The Hustle Earth was designed to give a traction ball reaction for medium to light oil at the lowest price point. This ball would be great for a beginner looking to get their first reactive ball to a professional bowler looking for a different look on higher friction oil patterns. On the 44ft house pattern I test on, I saw a relatively clean look compared to the rest of the Roto Grip lineup but with decent traction in the midlane. On the fresh, it actually read the lane overall well which would give it an option for me for early in my league setting. Compared to the Ultimate wrecker, I saw similar length but much slower reaction speed and smoother overall motion. Compared to the Hustle Glow, I saw earlier ball motion and smoother ball reaction down the lane. I can recommend this ball for a lot of different styles due to its versatility on low volumes of oil. For the price point, you get a lot of performance out this one. I can see myself using this for tournaments at the end of blocks where I need length and smooth midlane roll or on the fresh of house patterns as well as some lower volume sport patterns.

Roto Grip Hustle EARTH Core: Hustle Core Coverstock: VTC Solid Reactive Finish: 2000 grit Recommended Lane Condition: Light to Medium Layout: 5 x 5 x 4 My updated specs: Rev rate 420’s, ball speed 15.3 to 15.8 mph off the hand, axis tilt of 16 degrees and axis rotation of 70 degrees, PAP is 3 15/16th up 3/16th. Tested on Pro-lane surface and older HPL on 44 ft house patterns with lower volume used for the junior and senior leagues, 44 ft house patterns with larger volume,and patterns that ranged from 33 ft to 39 ft sport patterns. The newest Roto Grip Hustle solid has arrived. The new EARTH has hit the marketplace and it is out of this world. With the colors resembling the EARTH with colors of sea, greenery, and dirt make this Hustle a very unique color combo that I can say I have never seen or thought of. Now for why anyone stops and reads ball reviews: the PERFORMANCE! The EARTH rolls and reacts a smidge sooner than my X-Ray with identical layout, Where the X-Ray which I LOVE a TON, sometimes tends to be a little late in the middle part of the pattern and just kind of rides the wave and leaves more corner pins, the EARTH I have notices moves earlier but punches the pins a little bit stronger. The EARTH reminds me of the USA version we had a few years ago where the INK would be a little too long in front of the pattern in reaction, the USA would pick up sooner but still have a strong kick in the back end. The EARTH is designed for lighter to light medium volume patterns and also does react better on the older HPLs than the Pro-Lane panels just because the HPL picks up the ball sooner than the Pro-Lane because of the RA value differences in the panels. HPL is “gritty” compared to the Pro-Lane which is a TON smoother. The EARTH is a great ball for all types of players and more importantly, it gives you unmatched performance for the price point. Once again Roto Grip has redefined value and performance in the Hustle line of bowling balls.

Hustle Earth (Solid)/Glow (Pearl): For the lower performance/weaker bowling ball options, the Hustles are a great tandem to go to. The Earth, which is the solid version, will provide a smoother earlier reaction whereas the Glow (pearl) will provide more angle down lane. I drilled the Earth pin down to amplify the controllable nature of the ball and play more up the lane and closer to the track area. As the lanes develop, I would be able to transition to the Glow and open my angles up. I typically do not go this weak in league or tournaments, as I usually stop along the HP2 line of performance, as I still need more performance given my lower rev rate. If I know I will be bowling on very early beat up lane surfaces I would bring one of these balls. If your someone who prefers a lot of control and keeping angles closer to the track this ball would be good for you.

Drilling pattern: 3 1/2 x 2 5/8 x 3 3/8 Pin position: Below ring finger PAP: 4.5 over x 1 up Due to my little bit slower ball speed and higher rev rate, I've always been a HUGE fan of the HUSTLE series. This is my 4th or 5th iteration of the HUSTLE that I've drilled and I've loved every single one of them. However, my favorite of them all has been the HUSTLE CAMO. I drilled the HUSTLE EARTH with a copy of the drilling from my HUSTLE CAMO but looking for just a little earlier roll and little rounder shape and that is essentially what I got. The HUSTLE EARTH comes with a duller cover stock which grabs the late earlier and is tamer down lane. I tested this ball on the 37' PBA Bat pattern and was able to play significantly further right than some of my other equipment. The ball gave me a nice read of the mid lane and a very tame and round shape off the end of the pattern. I can see this ball, along with most in the HUSTLE series, as a fantastic option for drier house patterns, shorter sport shots, or really anyone looking for fantastic performance at a lower price point.

Hustle EARTH - 50 x 4.75 x 30 The Hustle EARTH really caught my attention with its color scheme and the 2000 grit abralon finish. It does read early and is very smooth and predictable. The EARTH is a great ball to start off with on the fresh on a typical house shot and can play a little closer to the friction to help blend the oil in the fronts and crisp backends. It’s simple and to the point, and is a great ball for bowlers with slower speeds or someone that wants to step up to hooking the ball a little bit more. If you want something simple, grab this ball!
