Title: Confirm this for me...
Post by: Rock77 on July 21, 2004, 09:33:26 PM
Ok, I was talking to someone on Saturday about drilling in order to get more of an idea as to how the drill affects a ball's reaction. Anyhow, the basis of what was told to me is that if you place the pin closer to your PAP, that will get the ball to roll earlier. The further from your PAP you go, the longer the ball will skid. If that is the affect that the pin has on a ball's reaction, what does the cg or mb do?? Does that affect the shape of the reaction, ie..arc vs. snap??

Please help, this is driving me nuts!!
