Layout help please.....
« on: September 15, 2005, 07:39:31 AM »
I just got my dad a Smokin Inferno.
The specs are: 14lbs 2 oz, 2-3/8 pin (cg to bottom of the pin), 2.5 top

What layout would you recommend?

He currently has:
1. Absolute Inferno - 5 x 4 with the pin under the ring finger, cg kicked out an 1-1/2 inches and a x-hole 6.5 from center of span

2. Intense Inferno - 4 inch from PAP. Pin next to ringer finger with the cg in the middle of his grip.

3. Spare Ball.

I want him to have a pin up ball. His span is 4-9.5/16 cut to cut. WIth inserts
his span is 4-13/16.

The pin is 2-3/8 from the cg to the bottom of the pin. If i put the pin up
i know there is going to be a good amount of finger weight.

Would this be ok. I want this ball to fit inbetween his AI and II.

Also do you think he can use these balls as a full arsenal?

Thanks in advance.

In my experience the II hooked alot especially out of the box.  If you could get it so that the II is for use on medium/light It could be a full arsenal for a typical house shot.  The only problem I would have with drillin' the smokin' pin over is that the ball naturally gets down the lane cleanly.  If you drill it pin over don't make the pin too far from the pap (ie 5 1/2-6in) or the ball probably won't be a good match (too long) considering the other stuff.  The pin to cg distance shouldn't be too much of an issue, don't forget you always can drill the fingers deep to get rid of some of the top.
