Recommendation for a rev challenge player.... help!
« on: October 19, 2003, 08:37:25 PM »
Just wanted all of your inputs. I have a friend
that throws fast but has a high track near the fingers and thumb.
The ball does not roll over the fingers and thumb.

What would be a good heavy oil ball and what
pin and top weight would be appropiate to help.
I was thinking a 2 to 3 inch with anythign below a 3
oz top weight. What drill pattern also?

Please give me your advice.

I think this is a easy one to answer! If you stay in the ebonite line he can get the following:

1. Apex Addition- low rg, dull coverstock.
2. V2 Strong- med-low rg, aggressive coverstock.
3. V2 reactive-low rg, dull coverstock.
4.jungle green predator-made for hard throwers, oily conditions.
  Are you starting to a pattern here
5. Apex obsession-little longer than the addition.
6. Predator particle pursuit.
7. Blood red predator.

If this person is rev challanged, Try the rev leverage drilling. This will get the ball rolling sooner!

Good luck!

By watching my friend bowl, label drilling seem to
rol good when the lanes are dry but the medium rg drilling with the pin under the ring finger with the CG kicked out and balance holeeither 6 or 8 inches seems to help him get the ball in a roll faster which he needs.

You can sort of say he has a 90 degree axis tilt which creates a lot fo skid in the front.
