Sidewinder help??
« on: December 16, 2007, 10:07:11 AM »
I just ordered a Sidewinder off eBay with a 3-4" pin and 2.5oz TW.

I am a very rev-heavy player and would like this ball to roll smooth, not too jumpy at the break, but still be strong. Based on videos I have seen, I chose the right ball.

My question is, with a PAP of 3 3/4" over, how should I drill this ball for what I'm looking for (not roll out) and not have to put a x-hole high in the ball? I will track over anything high...
If it's not possible and I picked the wrong ball, let me know that as well...any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

I have a sidewinder with a 4 1/2 inch pin to PAP. It is under and between my fingers. It is not jumpy off the break point at all. The only problem is I have an extra hole in it. But try to put the pin under that way it doesn't go long and just snap off the friction it will give you a more control arc.

hey bush,

do you know what your PAP is? pin under ring is one thing, but i'll bet that my PAP is shorter than yours, and if i put the pin under the ring with my revs, it may burn out...maybe...not sure...that's why i'm asking...

thanks for the info so far
