dual angle measurements
« on: November 25, 2013, 03:08:20 PM »
I just wondered what a rico drilled ball would be with mo pinels dual angle method?

Both angles would vary based on cg and/or mb placement, and both would depend on the bowlers axis point, but generally, it would result in relatively high drilling angle usually, and a very high VAL angle to put the pin that low compared to the fingers.

Mo is not a fan of that drilling...

If you are looking for the type of ball reaction that everyone claims that the Rico layout is supposed to give, Mo suggests that you lay out a symmetrical ball with a dual angle layout of 15°x5"x50° and use a P4 gradient line balance hole.

He doesn't find a need to lay out asymmetrical equipment with such a scheme because the dual angle layouts need to be much more specific to the individual bowler on strong asymmetric equipment.

Mo is also not a fan of anything not Mo. That is always obvious in his replies.

It would depend on your PAP.  Since rico is a general drilling and not an actual layout it will not only produce a different dual angle for each bowler, but it will roll different too.
