Title: high track flare layouts?
Post by: BuckeyeNation on October 30, 2006, 03:38:44 PM

Any suggestions for High Track Flare. Even a pitch adjustment maybe?

For a given ball,drill the pin 3 3/8" from the pap.Pitch will not affect flare.

i used to have problems with no being able to use some layouts but i made some pitch changes and have zero problems    so im m mind pitches can change track flare

Your question is not clear.  Do you want to increase or decrease your flare, and why?  Please clarify.  --  JohnP

I am just wanting a good layout for decreasing flare but smooth arcing motion is what I'm looking for. Thanks sorry about the vagueness

The following discussion applies to balls with symmetrical cores:

As the pooh said, flare is maximized when the pin is 3 3/8" from the PAP, and decreases to essentially 0 when the pin is on the PAP or 6 3/4" from the PAP (which would be near the track).  For a smoother, more arcing reaction, the pin should be between 0 and 3 3/8" from the PAP.  For the reaction you've described, I'd suggest a 1 1/2" pin to PAP distance with the cg near the grip center.

The strong influence of the mass bias position on balls with asymmetrical cores introduces other variables.  I have found it safest and best to use the layouts suggested by the manufacturers and described in their layout sheets.  --  JohnP
