Roto Grip Halo Pearl
The Roto Grip Halo Pearl is the perfect compliment to the original Halo bowling ball. This ball utilizes the same proven Centrum Core that was introduced with the Halo but a completely different coverstock. This ball is wrapped in the eTrax-P18 Pearl Reactive coverstock causing it to move at a different part of the lane. This ball offers a footprint in oil while still producing a responsive reaction to friction when lane conditions are medium to medium/heavy oil.

Question:
Is the halo pearl a good ball
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
If you need a ball for a strong backend hook that also handles heavier oil and some medium oil shots then this ball could be a good option. The only person that may not want to go after this ball would be someone with a low rev rate and high ball speed.

is the Halo or the halo pearl stronger then the dare devil trick
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Both Halo and Halo Pearl are stronger than the Dare Devil Trick. The Halo Pearl is going to read the lanes later but it has a stronger backend hook. The Halo is going to read earlier like the Dare Devil Trick but it will be a few boards stronger than the Dare Devil Trick.

Question:
i loved my hper cell fused is this the closet ball to that one or would you recomend something else ??? thanks for your time answering my questions
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
In the current Roto Grip line the Hyper Cell fits between the Halo Pearl and the Halo Vision. The polished finish on the Halo Pearl is the same that the Hyper Cell Fused had so it may be just slightly closer in reaction out of the box.

Question:
compared to the widow pink is there much difference ?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The Halo is considered to be in the high performance category while the Black Widow Pink is considered to be an upper mid performance. They are very close but I would give the Halo Pearl an edge being just a little stronger.

Question:
How forgiving is this ball and is it all right for straight line non spin bowler
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Typically as you the ball has more hook potential it is often less forgiving so for a high performance ball like the Halo Pearl you would not normally have a lot of forgiveness. However, it is a very strong backend to give you great entry angle and this gives you a lot of pin action.

Question:
How will this compare to the hy road x
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The Hy-Road X is designed as a mid performance ball from medium to lighter oil and the Halo Pearl is designed as a high performance ball for medium to heavier oil. That are very different because the Halo Pearl is much stronger and will break later on the lanes while the Hy-Road is more designed to read midlane for a smoother arc hook.

Question:
What Balls would you recommend for a Full Roller style, 15 mph ball speed, low revs.
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Most bowling balls will have a drilling layout option for a full roller so you just have to make sure you mention this to your driller so they can get the ball laid out correctly. Your ball speed is pretty average but with lower revs you can use a higher performance ball like this down into medium oil conditions pretty well with no problems.

Question:
How does the Halo Pearl compare to the Golden Jackal?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
Both balls are a high performance ball and both have a pearl coverstock but the Halo Pearl has a smoother finish out the box so it will give this ball more length than the Golden Jackal. That extra length helps the Halo Pearl to work down into some medium conditions as well as heavier oil while the Golden Jackal was more strictly for heavy oil only.

Question:

Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The DV8 Turmoil 2 Pearl is a mid performance ball for medium oil while the Halo Pearl is a high performance ball from medium to heavy oil. The Halo Pearl has a stronger hook potential so it needs more oil to work correctly.

Have an answer to this question?
Answer:

Question:
whats the main difference between halo pearl and omega crux ?
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The biggest most noticeable difference would be in the finish out of the box. They are both pearl coverstocks but the Halo Pearl has a polished finish while the Omega Crux has a 3000 grit dull finish. That duller finish makes the Omega Crux read more in the mid lanes while the Halo Pearl is going to skid through the mid lane and have a stronger sharper backend.

Question:
Will this ball get down lane Easy? I throw a bit slower around 14.5mph 2 handed.
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The pearl coverstock and polished finish do help this ball to get down the lane before it reacts. If you are rev dominant then I would suggest using this ball mostly on heavier oil. As you get down into medium oil you may need to switch to something that is not quite as strong.

Question:
is this a symetrical or asymetrical ball
Have an answer to this question?
Question:
How would the halo pearl compare to the phaze 3
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The Halo Pearl is a high performance ball while the Phaze 3 was an upper mid performance ball so the Halo Pearl will be a stronger hooking ball. Also the Halo Pearl was rated for medium to heavy oil while the Phaze 3 was best for medium oil. The Phaze 3 would also read a little earlier because of the hybrid coverstock versus the pearl coverstock on the Halo Pearl which goes longer.

Question:
Is this a first quality ball
Have an answer to this question?
Question:
How would this ball compare to the gravity evolve and the mvp
Have an answer to this question?
Answer:
The Halo Pearl is going to have much more length and a sharper backend than the Gravity Evolve. Both are high performance and both work in heavier oil conditions but the big difference is the length. The MVP is a mid performance for medium oil but it will not be as strong as the Halo Pearl. The MVP does have good length like the Halo Pearl but it is not as strong.
