Roto Grip Illusion Reviewed by: taylorgerard 02/24/2009 23:33
I first used my Illusion on the house pattern at our home center, which is dry on the outsides and heavy in the middle. I have also thrown this ball on extremely dry conditions. The Illusion gives me good reaction when the lanes are very dry.
The Illusion is my favorite ball to use on dry patterns. It gives me a lot of length with controllable back end.
I would definitely recommend this RotoGrip ball for dry conditions.

This ball should do well on a house pattern where there is a dry area to bounce the shot.

Advanced Layout 1
- Locate the mass bias by drawing a line from the pin through the CG. Find the location 6-¾" from the pin along this line, and mark it with "MB". This is the location of the mass bias or the secondary pin
- Place the major pin 5" from the player's PAP and place the "MB" on the player's ball track next to the thumb hole
- Use this layout for length with a medium backend reaction.
- This layout is great for medium to light oil. Also works well for players with higher rev rates.
Advanced Layout 2
- Locate the mass bias and mark it with "MB"
- Place the major pin 4-¼" from the player's PAP and locate the mass bias (MB) along the player's PAL
- This layout will most often require an extra hole, so place this hole on the PAP and remove excess side weight to "0".
- This layout works well to produce medium length and heavy midlane roll. Usually works well on medium to heavy oil, especially longer oil patterns.
Advanced Layout 3
- Locate the mass bias and mark the spot with an "MB". Remember, the mass bias is a fine tuning device used by advanced players.
- Place the major pin 3-3/8" from the PAP and locate the mass bias halfway between the player's ball track and PAL
- Place the extra hole, if necessary, on the player's PAP, removing excess side weight to less than 1 oz.
Advanced Layout 4
(For this layout we will select a ball with
a pin distance of 2-5" from the CG)
- Place the major pin 1-½" from the PAP. Remember to keep the pin along the line located between the PAP and the player's finger holes.
- Place the mass bias in the player's ball track.
- Check side weight to see if an extra hole is necessary. If so, place the hole on the PAP.
- This layout will produce heavy roll with a controllable backend reaction. Players with extensive side roll or high rev players will love this layout to help control dry, short oil patterns with very dry backends
