pap question
« on: August 04, 2006, 08:25:17 AM »
I am a high track bowler and i usually clip the thumb hole on the first and second revs. i measured my pap today and found it to be 6 in and 1 1/2 up does this sound normal for a him track bowler.

Took a spare ball rolled it down the lane in the heavy oil traced track and placed in spinner and found it that way.

Mine's in the 6" neighborhood too.  I don't usually clip the fingers but frequently the thumb.

Since you're clipping the thumb hole, that could be right.  Did you mark it with tape and throw it to confirm?  --  JohnP

You would be correct.  It is not abnormal for someone with a high track to clip any of the holes.
