Since there is no spot for the Hustle AU in the ball reviews right now, I will post mine here.
As with the HSB review above, I compared all the current Hustle's.
Roto Grip Hustle AU
Coverstock:VTC-P18â„¢
Weight Block: Hustleâ„¢ Core
Factory Finish: 1500-grit Polished
Radius of Gyration: 2.53
Differential: 0.030
With the release of 3 new Hustle's, 1 hybrid and 2 pearls, I figured a comparison between these and the Hustle INK would be the best way to review them.
The Hustle AU is a my favorite color scheme of all of the Hustles. Great looking ball and once again has packed a lot of performance in a low price point ball. The price point would make a buyer assume it is a light oil piece but if you are looking for that, look towards the Storm Tropical Surge. The Hustle AU will be as much on a typical house shot as it will be on lighter oil. If I were using my Hustle-only lineup for a THS league, the AU will fit right between my INK and 3TP.
The 3TP gets length with ease and gives an angular, but predictable, turn when it hits the friction. I drilled mine to move a touch earlier than my 3TP. Since those two balls are so similar, I went with different layouts to see the different shapes this ball can create.
My Hustle-only arsenal was built as follows:
HSB early/strongest/smooth
INK long/strong/smooth
AU long/medium/slightly more angle than above
3TP longest/medium/most angle of the group
****AU and 3TP left at box finish, drilled differently***
