What type of reaction would this give you?
« on: May 24, 2005, 07:01:17 AM »

---0-0---

----0----


Something like that.  I saw the ball but never saw it thrown.  Basically the CG was close to center grip, but the pin was further out and closer to the thumb.

It could be a full roller drilling or a reverse flare drilling.

I have a ball drilled like that. Condition ball only.
Basically my pin is on the other side of the thumb for a Right hander and down.
It causes the ball to reverse the flare and flare towards the fingers and thumb rather than away. Deisgned to give the player a more lateral move potential and play the friction more as it doesnt over jump when it hits friction. Very nice when you can use it but very limited on most League shots.

So without knowing anything about the ball or lane condition, you can predict the breakpoint and approximate number of boards it will hook?  LOL.

If you would read I was telling him how "MY" ball works with it drilled that way.---Anyway,You will need some oil for this to work the best for you.I have used this ball on a flood to medium and only had to make small moves.I have this on a Trauma,Blaze,Vertigo and I love it.
