I have also successed with a 1" pin solid wow and pin/cg stacked under ring finger, with 1 to 2 arrow with end over end around 5 degree axis rotation, the ball start at around 40 feet but the roll can keep rolling to pocket because of carrydown, I am just wonder the shot is not look pretty because my style is tweener and usually play with 4 - 5 arrow, just not happy to play small arc ball ! what is your feeling, chitown ?

I don't want to set the pin to 3 3/8 for the spot backend, the think I am now trying is cutting the aggressive of the ball flare and also all the axis with my 1" pin solid wow which stacked under my ring finger with modorate revs, I think all bowler cannot assume to get high score from this kind of lane, but a high court/spare situation. think about mika.

thanks for your advised chitown !

lane1lover,

You're looking for a universal solution and there isn't one.
If there's an out of bonds that forces you to play inside, you need a ball that will a small hook at th ebackend and still allow you to skid it enough on the "dry" inside and to hook just inside the OOB. The best way I have found is to find a break-point 2-3 boards inside of OOB in order to give myself some margin of error. I know I'm not going to hit it exactly every time.

The ball needs to have the right surface  and a small backend hook (usually, but not always, this implies a shortish pin-CG distance, pin placed somewhere above the ring finger area and CG kicked back towards the PAP) and the right surface depends on the amount of dry in the middle and how you deliver the ball (ball speed, axis tilt, rotation angle, etc).

Personally I've found very mild solids, such as the AMF Scamp, Storm Bolt Pro, Columbia Beast, and playing inside the 4th arrow to give me the most margin for error, and still be able to carry.
