Title: two drilling questions
Post by: Uncle Meat PT 2 on April 04, 2016, 09:34:54 PM

Hey all, have a couple of questions about drilling
 First, is an asymetrical ball stronger with a weaker drilling than a symetrical ball with a stronger drilling?
 Second, does moving the pin further away from one's PAP increase the balls read of the lane sooner? The reason I ask this,is I have seen some balls drilled lately that have the pin a long ways, 4.5 to 5.5 inches away,from the pap.
 
          Pin

   Lf  Rf

    Hs

    T

Mb
 
The layout I put above would be for a lefty, with the PIN/PAP distance being around 5", what benefits present themselves?
Thanks everyone.

All I can say about the drilling you present to us is, that this is a typical "long and strong" drilling for most bowlers. As to your symmetrical vs. asymmetrical question, I think Bull Red answered it nicely.

Every bowler is different. Pin to Pap are different; revs are different; speeds are different, etc., so the experiences will be different as well.
