PAP
« on: August 23, 2007, 08:09:42 AM »
Just got done throwing some games, trying to come up the back of the ball more to get rid of some of my hook . worked out great put after I got done I was checking my PAP and it was one inch above and to the left of my thumb. Just thought that was a strange place for that to be. It must have  moved 3 inches right and droped 2 inches. I was going from alot of side roll to a much smoother release . Just wanted to no if thats ok for my PAP to be there.

I have trouble with that location. A lot of trouble
Are you sure you understand what the PAP is?

The Pap will often move up towards the fingerholes when you release with the hand behind the ball.

Yes I know how to find my PAP I put it on my spinner and marked it off then measured just to make sure. I still come around the ball , just not as much. I think I will take it to the proshop just to see what he says. Just wanted to no what you guys thought. Thanks

A PAP just above and slightly to the left of the thumb is unusual in the extreme. It indicates a reverse track (track closer to fingers than to the thumb) with lots and lots of very early turn.
