Post by: scottie on October 27, 2008, 05:30:10 AM
with a ball drilled with the pin about an inch above the ring fingers, and the cg stacked directly below..maybe a 3-4 pin.......

This all depends on NUMEROUS things. Ball speed, rev rate, your release, your axis point, your tilt, type of ball, surface finish of the ball, surface you are bowling on, are just a few of the varibles that we would need to even remotely give you an idea as to what the reaction for you would be.

I have a storm x-factor reloaded that has a 4 1/2 inch pin with the pin an inch above my ring, rad next to my thumb, and this ball is smooth but strong. I also have an erazer blaze and it has a stacked drilling, pin at 45 degrees above my ring, cg straight down and this ball is almost too strong on a house shot.

What's your PAP? Pin position relative to the fingers does not tell much - we'd need your PAP, as well as some info on the ball and your style. Could be a length drilling for a high tracker with a flippy breakpoint, but that's just a guess.

In general, the higher the pin the greater the length, and the more the CG is "kicked out" the greater the hook.  So again, in a very general sense, you could expect greater length with hook that is about the mid-point of the ball's hooking capabilities.  Of course, as was said numerous times, what is most important is the distance of the pin and CG from your PAP.  In general, a pin and CG that is 3 and 3/8 inches from your PAP maximizes the ball's hooking potential.

When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment

When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one.

I love when these guys post incomplete  questions, replies ask for more details and the original poster is sooo concerned, he never shows up for a week. Now scottie may have an excuse, but this sure seem to follow a regular routine that ......
