I know there have been countless posts concerning this but I need to know some more about the "center line transfer" from any of you Pro Shop Operators on this site.

I can swear to it that years ago, a guy that used to drill my equipment used this method. I could look at the bowling ball and see that the thumb and middle finger were on top of one another.....or was that my imagination? I look at my current stuff and the thumb is pretty much in the center of span. I ask this question because nothing feels as good now when I throw it then it did years ago. I used to "track" higher then I do currently. I feel like I am coming out of the ball a lot later now. I just dont seem to get enough skid before the ball begins to check up.

The guy who drilled my stuff years ago was a bit unorthodox with his measurement methods.......he would make various marks on your hand and fingers then lay your hand flat palm down and make a copy of it on a xerox machine. Crazy method but damn it was awesome. I have never had a bowling ball be that comfortable........best part was he was able to duplicate it time after time. Unfortunately I took a couple years off....sold my stuff.....and he closed his shop!!!!  

Sorry for the rant....is there anyone out here who can clarify my thoughts?
