How do you drill a heavy oiler?
« on: August 08, 2004, 12:13:25 PM »
Hi all,
  I'm in a bind here and I hope that I can get some input.  I am getting a roto grip oracle soon, and I was wondering how I should drill it.  Should I drill it stacked, go long or what?  I want a true heavy oil ball.  Right now my biggest hooking ball is the roto grip ressurection, but it goes too long, I want the Oracle to start trying to move a lot earlier.  I know that the partice will help it move earlier too.  I'm thinking about just putting a label drill with the MB in the first ring of my track, but I dunno.  Please give your input.

Thanks,
BMM

if you put the mass bias in your track, then that will get the ball into an early rolling formation with a very long but strong arcing motion throughout the entire lane.  Sometimes this drill pattern can result in rolling out for those that have slower ball speed, dryier lanes, and people that are rev challeneged.  But that would get the ball into a very early roll which means that there needs to be some head oil or it'll burn up too quick.  This drill normally makes a bowling ball start to hook at about 35 feet. hope that was helpful.

I would suggest putting the pin 4-4.5 from the PAP and the MB in the strong position.  The cover and core is stronger than you Resurrection.  With slower speed, stack leverage may give you some rollout.  That's why I would put the pin a little further fromt the PAP.

No, on both accounts, sorry guys,...
label will give you too much length unless your speed is 12mph
Stacked or MB in strong will give you a nice reaction but if you want it for heavy oil.....
go pin under and next to ring and kick the mb way out at the VAL area...say, 4x2 or so.....message me for details,  OR, email Roger ; rogerN@rotogrip.com

drill the pin 3 3/8 inches from your pap and put your mb on your val. that is the best layout i have run across for true heavy oil.
