swinging the cg
« on: August 15, 2007, 01:08:59 AM »
I am fairly new to drillings, layouts, pin placement, covers and etc. Today I am getting my cherry vibe drilled and maybe my awesome revs that I've had forever but I've switched to 14 lbs and the revs is 15. I've also since the end of last season switched my delivery so before i would cup my wrist and hook the lane but I guess I'm over that and now I now don't have as much hook or revs. So if I get a ball drilled with the cg swung will it naturally make the ball more aggressive to compensate for my lack of hand? What I'm looking for is out of the vibe is pretty much to be drilled to its strength and out of the revs should i choose to get it drilled is the control drilling smooth continuous hook. I will for sure ask the guy in the pro shop but i would also like to have an idea as to what I'm talking about going in. Any insight is appreciated.

I really don't even know why whether the cg matters or not is a debate anymore.  As far as the USBC is concerned it does matter and, whether this is true or not, their acknowledgement that it matters in turn makes it matter.  By saying that the cg has an effect on ball motion and creating regulations concerning side weight, they have essentially forced bowlers to use weight holes, which ironically have had a far more profound effect on ball motion that static weights ever could.  

Kicking the cg out does matter from the perspective that it forces the bowler to use a weight hole which, can safely be said to effect ball reaction.  Which can be seen in a very nice and instructive manner by viewing Brunsnick's weight hole video.

The others wonderful bowlers with stacked drillings split.

Me (not as good)with non stacked drillings didn't.

Who squeezed?  Or did we all throw nice?...them with just 5% of TOO MUCH at the back me with 5% less of too much!  Thank you Lord, Thank you drilling!

My comment is this, i like cg out drillings because they usually require a weight hole which i prefer in the thumb quad area.

Yes it gets my ball into a roll and then flattens out somewhat on some lane conditions. For me it is a preference on certain balls. I have about 10-20 percent of 300 ball arsenal drilled this way on purpose.

But i have at least 250 balls with no weight holes and pin over or below the ring finger. I also have 3 balls drilled with 6 1/2- 7 inch pap with strong covers, these balls go 50 feet and make dead left turns. Pin at 6 1/2-7 and cg right in the mid grip works like a charm.
