i usually go pin down, if im trying to get away from the hockey-stick reaction on the dry. if you want a reaction that allows you to still cover some boards, i would keep mb closer to thumb, so it will still retain some energy going down lane. let us know what you went with and what ball.

good luck!

I agree with inverted I would try a 4-1/2 pin to pap as using a 5+ inch pin will make it tougher to use on heavier or longer patterns.
4-1/2 pin down will allow the ball to clear the heads but be smoother off the break and not left turn off the dry.

The only thing you may have to watch for with pin down is clipping the holes. You should be ok just be careful. Your driller may be able to tell you if you will be ok.

My 2nd dimension is drilled with the pin 4-1/2 up and mb 1/2 way b/w thumb and VAL (3 or 3-1/2 from PAP can't remember off hand). it gets good length and has good pop at the back.
