I know this is kind of general but what kind of drilling do you tend to lean toward when it is for a youth.
The reason I am asking is my 10 year old is getting a new to him ball and the local drillers around here don't know squat.
He has been throwing a 10 lb plastic Zone, Usually across 10 out to 5 and to the pocket at about 10/11 mph. When the lanes start to dry this same shot goes brooklyn.
I am no expert but he looks to be a LITTLE rev dominate.
His new to him ball is a 10 lb erasure pbt, 2 1/2 pin. This is his first reactive ball.
I hope he does not hook this thing off the lanes. We will see.
I was thinking about a 4" to 5" pin to pap, under fingers for consistency but I am afraid it may just hook to much.
Any thoughts, thanx, Doug

At 10 lbs, the ball almost assuredly has a pancake core, so the layout won't make a lot of difference. Put the cg near grip center and the pin away from all holes to avoid cracking. The most important factor for a young bowler like this is to get a good fit. -- JohnP
