Pin Question
« on: July 11, 2004, 06:53:27 AM »
I have a question for you people that might know an answer.  I have trouble rolling over the middle finger hole when a ball has a pin that is above the ring finger.  I have no problem when the pin is away from the ring finger.  Can anyone help me let me know please.  Let me know what i can do to fix it or just drill all my stuff where the pin is not next to the ring finger.

bigfish -- Describe your ball's track and give us your PAP coordinates.  Are you a full roller?  Read my second post to this topic:

Go to the link in that reply and look at the diagram of the pin safe zones.  But if you do happen to be a full roller, those zones don't apply.  --  JohnP

The differents between track lines are about 3/8th of an inch and the first ring is over my finger hole.  I dont know what my PAP is and maybe you can explain to me in stupid terms on how to find it.
Let me know what else you need.

Thanks

bigfish -- Bushman gave you a couple of good links in your other post.  For a beginner like yourself, not having any pro shop tools, it would be best to go to a pro shop and ask them to watch you throw a few and locate your PAP for you.  They can do a better job of trouble shooting your problem than someone that can't even watch you throw a ball can.  A full roller track is one that is between the fingers and the thumb.  --  JohnP
