- Fortune Maker

First Impressions
The Roto Grip Fortune Maker stands out as an exclusive international release in a classy pearl look. Inside works a strong symmetrical core with a low RG and a high differential. For the cover, Roto Grip relies on a highly polished pearl reactive shell. This combination of an early-revving core and the low-friction, smooth cover should let the ball clear the heads effortlessly and save all of its energy for a massive, symmetrical kick on the backend.
Comparison
Compared directly to dull benchmark balls like the Roto Grip Haywire, the Fortune Maker behaves extremely differently through the heads and offers a drastic, angular backend motion. Next to the Storm Hy-Road Pearl, the Fortune Maker provides far more angular length, but builds a powerful hook at the breakpoint thanks to its strong engine. When friction on the lane is high and transition dries up the front part of the lane, the Fortune Maker preserves its energy exceptionally well and turns on radically.
On the Lanes
The Roto Grip Fortune Maker is best suited to lane conditions with medium oil volume. For strokers and if you throw at moderate ball speed, it offers the option of playing deeper lines, since the cover saves energy while the strong core delivers the massive response. The tremendous drive toward the pocket should provide convincing carry. On fresh, extremely heavy oil, however, this ball can lack traction because of the polished finish. It's a weapon for open angles.
