Anyone use the tp massage ball and roller? I have them, and often feel very awkward rolling on my hamstring area, and really can’t get the hip with it, and its uncomfortable on the quad. Any users out there who have found a good trick for using these. Maybe I’m just a dope who can’t figure it out.

Well, they aren't comfortable to use. Stay away from the bone. It will hurt when you use them, but the pain lessens as you break up the adhesions over time.
Do you have the quad roller or the calf roller? I have the calf one and it's really too small for the quad hips. I supplement the set with a foam roller for the hip/hamstrings and find it works really well. Perhaps a user of the quad roller can chime in with benefits of that vs the foam roller, but I have no complaints... I do use the ball on the glutes, but comfortable is definitely not the word I'd use - more like YEEEOOOUCH! (but in a good way) ;-D
