Title: How Should I Get a Black Widow Drilled?
Post by: crusher267658 on December 29, 2006, 01:37:41 PM
Ok the lanes in my league have been around medium - heavy oil lately. My friend told me that I'm right in between a tweener and a cranker but I do rev the ball quite a bit. I throw the ball at least about 15mph. The lanes I practiced on today with my DOOM were about maybe a little less than medium oil but it was fresh, the guy had just put a fresh coat of oil on the lanes. I was standing lined up with center dot and center arrow and I was throwing out somewhere between 2nd and 3rd arrrow and the DOOM worked good in that spot for the first game but then it broke down a little tiny bit  and it would go a tiny bit high. But now that I think of it I would say that the lanes were about medium oil. Look at the picture of how I have my DOOM drilled and compare it to the way the DOOM reacted on the lanes today so you can help me with how I should I have the BW drilled. If you need any other info please ask. Thanks in advance.

I like the skid/flip layout on mine and tune the cover for whatever condition I want to use it on.

consider what you wnat the ball for,heavy,med,etc.go the you're house were the pro shop is and throw a game then let the pro shop measure pap,track dia etc.etc.take a note pad with you and write everything down so you know and to do research on you're game and what will work for you.
