BEHIND THE DESIGN:
Just like the original, this version is also engineered to blow up racks and take names.
Featuring the same Torpex Core with TORQUE SPHERE Technology, we knew the sole focus of this project was formulating the ideal coverstock to not only compliment the TNT, but also compliment the entire Roto Grip product line.
Explosive Performance PLUS SOME was our goal, and well, lets just say we CRUSHED IT!
Starting with our eTrax PLUS coverstock material, we went to work mixing up and mixing down both the pearl and solid materials. After months of rigorous testing and analysis we were able to formulate the response to friction we were looking for thanks to this 2-part pearl / 1- part solid concoction.

Roto Grip TNT Infused Ball Review by PJ Haggerty
One of the latest additions to the HP3 line at Roto Grip is the TNT Infused. If you remember the original TNT, it was a symmetrical ball with a big core and solid coverstock. I considered the TNT as a great benchmark ball to determine what the lanes were providing us. Our experts at Storm went one step further and created the TNT Infused which still uses the same core (Torpex), but wrapped it with a 2 part pearl, 1 part solid, hybrid coverstock. I had the opportunity to drill one and really like the way it rolls. The layout is mapped as 5.5 x 4.5 x 60. This puts the pin above my bridge with a decent shift of the CG. I’ve had the most success after my Magic Gem or Eternity PI start to see the front of the lane too much. The TNT Infused gets through the front of the lane easier, stores a nice amount of energy, and continue through the pins extremely well. It’s also been a ball I’ve been able to use when I need to open up my angles. It has no problem going left-to-right and I believe it’s a great addition to the already stacked line at Roto Grip. If you need a ball that compliments the asymmetrical balls or even something to compliment your benchmark balls, I’d go drill a TNT Infused and I think you’ll be impressed!

TNT Infused review
I am a higher speed, rev challenged 220-250ish, high tilt, high rotation, and super low track player. I drilled the Roto Grip TNT Infused 5.5 x 3x 1.75 using Storm VLS and my axis point is 3 ¼ right and 7/8 up. The Roto Grip TNT Infused is a symmetric Hybrid reactive piece that I really like medium volume patterns. The low RG and big diff gives this ball high flare potential when I need something to give me length and forgiveness. Overall, this ball is a beast and explosive through the pins.

TNT Infused
The Roto Grip TNT Infused has the same Torpex core as the original TNT, but the coverstock is the ETrax Plus Hybrid. At 15 pounds the RG is a very low 2.47 with a .052 differential. I drilled mine at 5x4x2 which puts the pin above my middle finger. The new Infused is a much cleaner version than the original TNT. The Infused gets into an early roll just like the original due to the low RG core, however this coverstock finished with Reacta Gloss is very clean through the heads. The other major difference between the Infused and the original TNT is the backend shape. The Infused has a quicker response to friction and is much more angular on the backend. The TNT was much more forward on the backend of the lane and required a good amount of oil for the ball to keep its energy through the pins. The TNT Infused does not have that problem, it has a good midlane roll and a very continuous motion through the pins. This is a much more versatile ball which will work for many styles of bowlers on the medium patterns.

TNT Infused
THIS BALL…I’m going to say that this ball has flown under the radar more than any ball in recent memory. The TNT infused is wrapped with e-Trax Plus Hybrid which is 2 parts pearl and 1 part hybrid. This ball handles volume better than most! The combination of the Strong, Torpex Core and the the cover surprisingly DIGS! When I struggle to get some of my bigger Asyms. to pick up and go, this ball gets the job done! I can not speak highly enough of this ball, it really is a huge bang for the buck, with this bad boy being in the HP3 line. I drilled 2 of them because I loved the first one so much. My first one was 5x5x2, my second one was 4.5x4.5x4. That pin down layout was not my favorite, however so be cautious if you are thinking about a pin down layout for this one.

Roto Grip TNT Infused
The new Roto Grip ball in the HP 3 Line is the TNT Infused. I was real big fan of the original TNT. The TNT Infused uses the same core with the E-Trax Hybird coverstock. 2 parts pearl 1 part solid. I drilled the Infused the same as original, 4 1/4 x 4 x 2. I used the Infused on house pattern and a couple sport patterns. To be honest for me the Infused rolled okay for me, but not as good as the original. It seemed like Infused was too strong to play up the lane, and not enough to move in and hook it a little on house shots. On sport it rolled a little better for me. I have drilled a few in my shop and customers like the ball real well as it backend for them a lot! I really think the infused for me is a conditional ball. But for others it is a great ball for them. As sometimes certain ball just dont match up for the bowler. But if you are stroker or tweener looking for a ball that can help you down lane while playing down and in, the Infused is your ball.

TNT Infused Cover: eTrax+ Hybrid Reactive Core: Torpex RG: 2.47 RG Diff: 0.050 My layout: 4.75 x 2.5 The Infused is a hybrid symmetrical ball that I see working best on medium to med-dry conditions. The hybrid eTrax+ cover on the Infused is very clean compared to the original TNT. It gets through early friction easily is much quicker than I was expecting. The low rg core translates the clean cover to a medium to medium-quick response motion down lane. I have found that the Infused is best when the lanes transition past big solid balls like the Absolute Power or Phase 2. It allows me to get more shape without picking up the fronts too hard.

Roto Grip TNT Infused Ball Review
Bowler Stats: Speed: 15.5 MPH Rev Rate: 275 RPM Tilt: 3-5 degrees Axis Rotation: 60 degrees PAP: 5 ⅜ over 1 ¼ up Layout: 5 X 3.75 X 2.5 VLS Video Review: https://youtu.be/GQ5xsZya7zw The Original TNT was very slow off the end of the pattern for me so when the TNT Infused was released I was hoping this ball would be quicker off the dry so I can use it when the lanes transition during league. I didn’t like the out of box surface with the reacta gloss because it made the ball skid too far and be confused off the end of the pattern. After scratching it by hand with a 2000 abralon pad the ball began to blend the wet dry better and give me a more predictable motion. With also having the Journey the TNT Infused compliments it well. I can play to the right in league with the Journey and when that ball begins to read the house shot too early I can switch to the Infused and not have to make a large move left. The PBA 50 begins soon so I will be able to test this ball on patterns. The TNT Infused rolls great in the second shift league I bowl in since the lanes are constantly transitioning during league and different from week to week.

Infused is Explosive
Sam Cooper Roto Grip Amateur Staff. I am a little late to the party on the TNT Infused but better late than never! The TNT Infused features the Torpex core which has a lower RG higher differential. This ball has the E-Trax Plus Hybrid which is a two-part pearl and one part solid. The original TNT was designed to really control the lane, the Infused is the exact opposite of that. I drilled this ball shortly after I drilled a 900 Global Sublime, they are similar strength to each other but there is a difference. Ball progression for me in the middle of my bag would be TNT Infused, Sublime, then a Zen Gold Label. The TNT Infused will have a strong mid-lane roll to it with an earlier response to friction over the Sublime. The Infused, however, when it responds to the friction it almost looks like waits a moment before it turns it can be a little forward at times if there is not enough oil. Whereas the Sublime seems to get down lane a little bit more and have a rounder more continuous motion to it. I found that when the Sublime is not carrying or getting behind the head pin a little bit the TNT Infused will hook slightly earlier to help you get through the pins better. On the other side of that when the TNT is hooking too early and not going through the pins you can go to the Sublime. Like I said these balls are in a similar strength window but there is a reaction difference. My only regret is that I did not drill this ball sooner. It has been a great addition to the bag.

TNT Infused
Layout: 45 x 4 5/8 x 35 I had success using the original TNT on tougher patterns, but it was too strong and rolled too early for me to be able to use it on the house shots that I see. The TNT Infused is the absolute opposite; it is clean through the fronts but has an a bunch of backend flip. Due to this, it is a killer on the medium oil house shots that I usually see. Even though I would characterize the backend as being a bit flippy, it is still controllable. It is strong enough overall to use to begin with, but has plenty of pop downlane as I need to move left throughout the night. If I need something that can handle a bit more oil than the Infused, I change to the Sublime or the Magic Gem.

TNT Infused
Nice addition to the original TNT. The Infused has many of the same characteristics for me as the TNT but in a package I find more usable. While the original was all about control. The Infused offers plenty of control but still has the ability to create some shape on the backend.

TNT Infused
TNT Infused. Really loved the Original TNT super excited for this Hybrid being 2 parts pearl one part solid. Layout 5x4x4…For me this balls rolls heavy really looks like its chugging down lane and when it hits the spot it goes. And goes and goes. This ball is a beast. Really liking this ball later on in the set when they start to break down. This ball lets me play in the same area of the lane that I started at. Great compliment to the original but better. The original as they broke down I would lose carry not with the Infused. Infused for the win

Roto Grip TNT Infused
Layout: 5 x 3 x 2 VLS The TNT Infused is a hybrid version of the original TNT. While the original TNT was extremely early and a very conditional ball, I’ve found the TNT Infused to be much more versatile, I could see it fitting in as a benchmark ball for lighter oil or higher friction lanes, it has a low RG core to get mid lane read while the reacta gloss finish helps it get through the heads. It is responsive to the friction without being overly jumpy and is explosive when it hits the pins. My Specs - Speed - 16 mph, Rev Rate - 315. PAP 5 1/8 x 7/8 Up.

Roto Grip TNT Fused review by Mike Craig
I drilled up my ROTO GRIP TNT INFUSED with my standard layout of 4.5 x 4.5 x 2.5. This puts the pin close to the middle of my grip line but a good inch and a half above the fingers with a small CG kick out. I hit the surface with 1000 then lite Storm Rough Edge which is my new go to on factory Reacta Gloss surfaces. I put this one up with my pearl balls that I use when I see a medium to medium dry pattern or house on burnt panels. I threw it against my EXOTIC GEM, newer JOURNEY, and VIRTUAL ENERGY BLACKOUT. Compared right away to these, the TNT INFUSED was longer thru the fronts than the EXOTIC and VEB. The JOURNEY was close with the same surface on it. The EXOTIC and VEB were close to the same ball motion as the INFUSED. The INFUSED started its move towards the pocket just a little later than both of those. Compared to the JOURNEY, it is much earlier and stronger down lane. These two should play off each other well. Put this one in your bag if your looking for a stronger medium piece that has a slightly later motion than the big asym pearls do. Or if you want to get a 1-2 punch, grab a JOURNEY also.

I thought that this ball was going to be bigger than it is. I was pleasantly surprised that I could pull the Infused out mid tournament or set and be able to play that over under situation. It's nice because if I get it out quickly it sits and reads and if I get it into the oil, it has enough to come back. This ball will be in my bag just for this reason. I am excited about how this roll and for how hard it hits as well. This is going into my line up and now I am going have to make a few tough choices because the Storm Family of products (Storm, Roto Grip, and 900 Global) are making some seriously off the chart’s equipment.

TNT Infused
Roto Grip TNT Infused Cover: eTrax™ PLUS Hybrid Reactive Weight Block: Torpex™ Core (Symmetrical) Color: Glow Orange/Copper/Plum Review: Looking for a versatile benchmark ball that will be great as the first ball out of your bag on league night? Looking for a upgrade from that Tropical? Look no further than the TNT Infused. This ball plays off the original success from the TNT. The TNT infused is the type of ball that will get down the lane while offering plenty of pop on the backend. Being that the ball is a hybrid you won’t have to worry about the ball reading to early on the lane or over hooking on you. Being that the ball comes with the reacta shine you will not have to worry about getting through the fronts, it will get cleanly through the fronts while offering a good pop when it hits the pocket. When comparing this ball to other’s in my bag I am often drawn to the OG Hyroad with the TNT getting the slight edge due to bright vibrant colors. I would highly recommend this ball to anyone who is looking for a new hybrid in their bag. Will Tefft Roto Grip Pro Shop Staff Member will@parklanes.net www.rotogrip.com #SquadRG

TNT Infused
Hey everyone, I'm back with another ball review, and this time it's for the Roto Grip TNT Infused. In 14 pounds this ball is wrapped in an eTrax Plus Hybrid Cover and comes with a reacta gloss finish with the Torpex symmetric Core from the original TNT and has an RG of 2.54, Diff of .051. The layout for this ball is 5.5 X 4.5 X 1 and I went on the weaker side to have a ball that hooks but to be used when they get drier. There are many videos online showing this ball as a hook monster but not knowing things like their layout or what the pattern hurts the person watching as sometimes it is hard to understand what you are watching. I hope this helps and please let me know on the socials. I filmed this ball after league to show what it looks like on a drier shot as when I did throw it on fresh for me it didn't look great and yes that is part of the layout. This ball comes with the reacta gloss finish and like the 4Kfast I didn’t find that surface to be to my liking and the same goes with this ball. Before holes were put in I hit the ball with a used 2000 pad just to knock off the shine. This ball will stay in the bag for some time to come and will put in work later in events or even on a shorter pattern.

TNT Infused
The all new TNT Infused is Roto Grips newest addition to the HP3 line. The infused features the Torpex Core (in the original TNT as well) with the eTrax Hybrid coverstock (with Reacta gloss) wrapped around it. I think that the Infused was a great addition to the line, I felt that the original TNT was a ball that was very shot dependent. If I needed a ball to be slow and rolly it was my go-to ball, however, I thought that the coverstock may have been too strong unless there was a lot of oil in the front part of the lane. I think that the eTrax Hybrid coverstock is more of what I like to see out of a ball, it allows the ball to slow down in the midlane without bogging down when it gets to the pins. The TNT Infused is great when you want to move in and open up the lane without sacrificing midlane control. This ball made a good ball (TNT) even better!

Roto Grip TNT Infused Layout: 4.5 x 5 x 2 Storm Pin Buffer Layout Rev Rate: 325 rpm, 7 degree of axis tilt, 40 degree of axis rotation Testing information: 41 foot THS (medium to light volume) Bowling Center: Fulton Bowling Center Kegel Machine – Brunswick Anvilane The Roto Grip TNT Infused utilizes the eTrax hybrid coverstock and the Torpex weight block. I have seen some reviewers opine that the ball reaction of the TNT Infused is Marvel Pearl like. Those are big shoes to feel as the Marvel Pearl was one of my all-time favorites. However, the TNT Infused is very similar. It is clean upfront and nice backend motion once it touches the dry boards. The TNT Infused is very different than the original TNT, which was smooth and controllable. The TNT Infused is in that Storm Virtual Energy Blackout space, but as a symmetrical option. The TNT Infused was not quite as long s the VEBO for me, but similar backend motion. I will used it as my No. 2-3 ball after my Magic Gem or Eternity PI starts to hook too soon and won’t carry that stubborn 10-pin. Visit your local Storm VIP Pro Shop! #Stormnation #SquadRG

TNT Infused Review by Luke Rosdahl
The TNT Infused is a new symmetric ball in Roto Grip’s HP3 line. It features the eTrax plus hybrid cover, which is a clean and responsive cover that we’ve seen before on the RST X-2 in pearl form, and on the TNT as a solid. The core is the relatively new Torpex core which comes in at a low 2.47 RG and a .052 differential in 15 pounds. The Infused feels like a longer and sharper version of the TNT, but it’s remarkable how much that improves the quality of the ball reaction. I’ve used the Infused on several different conditions with a couple different surfaces. The factory gloss is too inconsistent and sensitive for me, so I resurfaced it down to 1000 on a resurfacing machine, then finished it lightly with Storm’s Step 2 compound. The result was a strong rolling, but clean, firm, and slightly forward arc. The TNT was known for being surprisingly early and strong despite the cleaner cover formula, and unfortunately the front to back shape was too front heavy which made it lazy and apathetic down lane. The Infused adjusts that shape, giving it a lot more balance and resulting in a perfect balance of core and cover. The heavy rolling and early core gives a lot of stability to the reaction shape, while the cleaner and sharper cover gets the ball further down the lane and adds punch. This makes the Infused a surprisingly effective and versatile ball that reminds me a lot of the original Zen, just cleaner and sharper. Like the TNT, the reaction shape wants to be slightly forward, but the cleaner cover allows the bowler to control the shape a little better because you can get around it more without it digging in so early or being flat like the TNT was. It fits well for a variety of bowler styles on most league conditions, and will be a great option for getting into transition on more difficult patterns.

TNT Infused
Ben Lapointe 5.25 x 4 x 3 1 1/4'' up and 4 7/8 over The TNT Infused is Roto Grips newest piece in the HP3 line. This ball provides excellent mid lane read with its big core found in the original TNT as well. The pearl cover on this piece makes it sharp enough on the back end to get through the pins with ease, but does not want to go through with too much angle and 9 pin. I find this ball blends out wet/dry or over under really well. I find this ball very useful on sport due to its slower ball motion, making it more useful on low volume fresh sport patterns. Bowl up a Storm!!

Roto Grip TNT Infused by Casey Murphy
Orientation: Right Handed Rev Rate: 400 RPM Speed: 16-17 MPH PAP: 4 ½ over and ½ up Location: Enterprise Park Lanes, Springfield MO Pattern: High Volume THS VLS Layout: Layout 1: 5 x 4 x 2 ½ (pin above bridge) Layout 2: 4 ½ x 4 x 4 1/8 (pin below bridge) The TNT Infused HOOOOKS. I liked the TNT quite a bit when it came out but it does get slow at times. The Infused comes off the spot HARD. It is a lot of ball. Where the TNT gets off the spot slow and continuous and lets you stay closer to the friction, the Infused just goes. I HAVE to open the lane up to keep this ball online, but the solid part of the cover insures that it reads the front part of the lane, so oil is not a problem. Being a high performance hybrid allows this ball to be used on all sorts of oil volumes and patterns because it tries to get through the fronts more than a solid but it also jerks, but not as much as a pearl! Love some high performance hybrids!

TNT Infused - You have been WARNED!
Roto Grip TNT Infused LAYOUT: 45 x 5 x 40 COLOR: Glow Orange / Copper / Plum CORE: TorpexTM Core COVER: eTraxTM PLUS Hybrid Reactive BOX FINISH: Reacta GlossTM BUILT FOR: Medium Oil FLARE POTENTIAL: High Consider yourself WARNED! Being a HUGE fan of Roto Grip hybrids: like my current main go to ball, Roto Grip Hyped Hybrid, I was stoked when I saw the TNT line was adding a hybrid to the line up first, before a pearl version was released. Being two parts pearl and one part solid, made me even more excited. The TNT Infused has the look of a past Roto Grip ball, the DareDevil Danger, which is still one of my all-time favorite ball lines, the TNT Infused rolls and reacts a little earlier and hits harder than my Hyped Hybrid. The multi-density Torpex core is responsive and when the Infused hits the pins, it is very explosive. Comparing to the Hyped Hybrid, on Pro-Lane and SPL, the Infused does change motions early and stronger than the Hyped, where sometimes the Hyped takes longer to respond, and I can move my feet deeper into the center of the lane and not have to play so straight on those 2 types of lane surfaces, don't get me wrong, I love playing straighter when I can, but when the Hyped does not quite "get there" a nice stronger step up is the Infused. It is now my benchmark ball on Thursday nights at ABC North Lanes in Harrisburg. So, now my league bags have the Magic Gem, TNT Infused, Tour Dynam-X, Virtual Energy Blackout and Hustle RIP. I would say that would be a well rounded arsenal. ( Saving the one spot for the IQ Tour U/78. I hope this provides you some good insight and information on how the Roto Grip TNT Infused works for me.
