It a bit longer than what I expected, but in the last 3 feet before it hits the pocket, mine has this continued angular continuation that really kicks the ten pin out.. let me explain a bit more. You know when you make a shot, and after the release you sort of feeling the shot is slightly "undercooked"?... you know it going to hook towards the pocket, but chances are it's going to be a ringing six pin.. Well with the angular, I am, a lot of time, quite pleasantly surprised by the ball having a last micro second hook into the pocket. It is this last hook that takes the ten pin out.
hope that wasn't too confusing...
