Pro pin/pro cg
« on: November 02, 2007, 03:47:07 AM »
I know a pro pin ball has a long pin to cg distance, but what is a pro cg?

The CG is out of line with the pin-MB.  Pin length and top weight might be normal, but the CG mark is more than some distance from the pin-MB line.  Might be great (CG to the left for a right-handed bowler), might not be.

Pro Cg balls are asymmetrical with the pin, CG and MB misaligned.

And the cg is usually out of line by 2 or more inches.

Thanks.  Sounds like key words are left or right, depending on the layout in mind.
