How would u drill the Radical if u wanted...???
« on: August 13, 2006, 12:21:46 AM »
How would u drill the Radical if u wanted...???  A skid/flip reaction? Im a cranker and i throw the ball about 18-19 mph and i was wondering whats the strongest you can drill this ball and where would everything be placed? I see Brunsnick has 2 radicals on his site but i dont know how there drilled and what their for. Please Help Brunswick Employees!!!

PS had a horrible weekend bowling my first tournement in 6 yrs a local ABT which u donated my money too b/c it was a crazy shot of Flood the whole lane especially board 1-5 and then give us the strongest backend i've ever seen!

Stack it, it's not as strong as you probably think it is.

Lol, I don't do the whole degrees thing . . but basically your pap sounds close to mine, so you just put the pin and the cg 4 inches from your pap each (the 4x4 layout), and it should come out with the pin right of your ring finger (assuming you're righthanded) and the cg straight below it, or at least close to that.  It's a max hook layout, but the ball with its box surface gets great length and great backend, so if you're a cranker with a decent amount of speed, you'll need the ball drilled strong to get the strongest reaction combined with the most consistency out of the ball.  If a Brunswick guy gets on here and offers another suggestion though, listen to them, they know waaaay more than I do.  I did work in a shop for 3 1/2 years though, and I have a Radical, so that's what I'd suggest.

well i want length of the ball. Not max but close as i can. I have my Red Zone drilled some what close to Brunsnick but it has a meduim hook and not to strong of backend but i think thats a characterstic of the ball. Great med-dry ball i think. Never over reacts to much of jumps in the backend. But I need a oil to med ball. With strong backend. I have a Vendetta Magunum 44 drilled like this:    


                       O O
                        *    o    Big X-Hole

                        O

          Red Zone:     *
                       O O
                            o       Little X-Hole
           
                        O
