I am having trouble with my equipment.  I am a tweener and my eye is an angular movement to the pocket.  I have a new ball drilled but didn't specify the pin placement (which is 2") and I now have a ball that is skid-flip.  This leads me to a question.  Should the pin placement reflect the bowling personality?  I think that the 2" pin placement would be more for someone that plays the lanes more straight up, tweeners need more, in my case 3.5 to 4" and the crankers, something more, I guess.  All I know is that the 2" placement is not working for me (skid/flip).  There is another bowler that has the same ball I do with a 4" pin and hers moves fine (angular). I was told to dull up the ball, but I want to have the ball set up correctly so that I don't have to keep adjusting the coverstock for the lane conditions.  I understand that a I will always need to play the lanes but I want to play within my skillset (angular, not skid/filp).  Tell me what you think.

HackJandy thanks for the link, MI 2 AZ and AlonzoHarris thanks for the help.  I have already changed the surface of the ball, unfortunately it has to be done often.  My current driller will be emailing my measurements today so I can take a look and know what my PAP is, etc.  I will take a look at the link you sent HackJandy as well.  Had to get my book out and read up on ball physical dynamics too.  I think a layout tweaking is in order.   

Thanks guys, I done. 

This is killing me!!! What ball???
