Title: Drilling and Layouts
Post by: USFBowler on February 23, 2008, 04:33:00 PM
I was wondering if there was a general summary of the basic drillings and their reactions when it came to bowling balls?  I know there are a ton of different ways to drill bowling balls and they will give a million different reactions, but I was wondering if there were general guidelines I could follow because I will start coaching bowlers starting next year, and I would like to be able to have a general idea of what certain drilling layouts do to their bowling balls.  All I really know right now is pin up makes it go longer, pin under fingers makes it roll earlier, moving the CG further out makes it snap harder at the end (I think), the pin further out to the right (for a right handed bowler) means it will hook more then one between the fingers.  This is somewhat helpful (If it is all correct lol), but any tips would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

Kicking out the CG/MB on a bowling ball makes it roll smoother with a more even midlane reaction. The further out you go, the smoother it will be.  Stronger layouts with more backend are generally Stacked and have the MB in a somewhat close area to the right side of the thumb hole (for a righty, opposite for a lefty).  But here are some basic drill sheets for all high, med. and low track players from brunswick.  (I hope I dont get hit too hard with the CGNOMADDAH stuff).
