Which to Rico, Twisted or Sidewinder
« on: April 12, 2008, 02:08:22 PM »
Going to be drilling both of these balls up next week and want to finally try out the Rico drill.  Will be bowling a PBA pattern league (only 2 of the patterns) this Summer and then will be using the balls for mostly house shots.  Which ball should I Rico?  I thought I remember seeing posts about that being a great drill for the Twisted but not positive.  That is the one I am leaning towards now.  If the CG is out of alignment, should I prefer one direction over the other?  We will be having a ball draft where there will be a room full of balls and we get to pick from them.

Well my stuff is definitely smaller.  My edge to edge/cut to cut is 4 3/16 middle and 4 1/4 ring.  I use a 3/4 in middle and 11/16 in ring.  My thumb in that ball is a super beveled 57/64 oval with 3 cuts at 45 degrees.  However, I have not put my new slug in that ball, so I will open it up as much as needed for you to throw.  Right now I only work on Thurdsays from 1-9, but I am down there a lot.  The span will be short and thumb won't be perfect, but I think I should be able to make it work for you if you want.  Let me know.
