RG anyone
« on: December 28, 2004, 02:46:17 AM »
What is RG I know what it is but can someone please explain if the ball has low RG what does it do and if it has higher RG. Does low RG = more length??

That still did not answer my question.  Goes higher RG means the bowl goes longer??

rg is radius of gyration..and basically.....

a low or lower rg ball will start it's move faster than a higher rg ball...so to answer your question...in general,...yes...it'll go longer (a higher rg ball)
