I am a 200+ average bowler and after alot of trial and error, I have come up with 2 basic favorite layouts.    Pin Up 65 x 5 x 35 for length and strength and a Pin down 50 x 4 x 70.       

I just picked up a Marvel Pearl that I want to and I am looking for thoughts from the BR community before I meet with my driller this coming week.     Ideally it would compliment my Hy Road pearl drilled at 65 x 5 x 35 which has plenty of back end but I want the Marvel Pearl to have more emphais on control.

My inital thought is to increase my VAL angle and reduce my Drilling angle on my 65 x 5 by 35 layout and try to stay around a total combined angle of about 110 degrees.   I know it is best to watch me throw to give best advice but can anybody help with general thoughts?

Thanks

Here are my basic specs.
  o PAP 5 1/2 > 1/2^
  o Rev Dominant tweener
  o Ball Speed 15-16
  o Axits tilt +/- 15 degrees
  o roatation +/- 50 degrees
  o high track
I am comforatable putting alot of hand into the ball or almost none at all.  As a rule,  I favor trhowing inside the other league bowlers has I can keep a cleaner line longer but I have no problem throwing down 10 with no hand if need be.

Thanks.  My Hy Road has a small P3 hole.   If I recall I was about 1 oz positive initially and the X hole and brought it back to essentailly neutral by taking about +/- 1 oz.   I wanted more a little more pop on the back end but not too much which is why I went with a P3 and not P4.

In that case, I would repeat the layout if I wanted something that was a step up or do the pin down if I wanted to control the breakpoint.
