chainsaw layout
« on: January 20, 2009, 11:45:43 PM »
how did you lay out your chainsaw
i don't have any idea how to lay mine out
stacked drill has always worked good for me in the past, but this core is a little different for this ball

so im looking for your suggestions / ideas / actual layouts you have

thanks

How exactly do you want the ball to react? Anything pin up will keep the ball pretty staight!

thats a good question
this ball is supposed to be for dry lanes, and i primarily want it for that i.e. 3rd game in a set, and tourneys
its going to have a 2" pin and 3 Oz. of top

me
16-17 mph
300 +/- RR
5 & 3/8 ^ PAP

i know its not going to be a big mover, but i want consistency, and control

I drilled mine (4" pin) with the pin above the ring and the CG stacked below.  To be honest, I don't really like this ball.  Maybe it's the drilling, but for me the ball is erratic on the backend and leaves a lot of corners.

Dont let this ball fool you. It is very clean throught the front of the lane but when it catches dry it moves quite a bit. I punched mine pin over ring with CG kicked out a little. It ended with around 1/2 finger and 1/2 side. Very smooth but covers some boards when hits dry.

From what I've seen, I would go with a CG out or a Label 1:30. =:^D

Anything but Label..  LOL  

Smooth + control = 5x3 (CG out)
Little more Power = Stacked

I went with Stacked...

thanks for the input fellas, but i fear you will be hearing more from me
i had my session w/ Ron Clifton today, and he's teaching me how to bowl more correctly, and by doing so my specs/ stats have changed dramatically

my speed and revs are WAYYYYYYYYYY up from what i listed

i was amazed how much I changed just during our short time together

its like i got a new toy

my pap changed, my axis tilt changed, easy 2-3 more mph, and i venture to say im about 400 rr now

i really dont know how much layouts play a role in the grand scheme of things or im just making much a do about nothing

been a long day sorry to bable

balls coming off my hand like a scalded dawg

I have my Chainsaw drilled pin under ring with cg kicked out 45* skinny deep weighthole on my VAL.

The ball is super rolly and still carries the 10....I love it but think I am going to drill another pin up for more length.

my ball is only got a 2" pin, and 3 oz TW
i have not had luck w/ a cg out layout before, but that could be different now
i also have never tried using a label drill
although i just punched my HRG label i have not used it yet to see the reaction
all i want is a consistent and controllable ball that has lenght
rest is up to me.........lol

Have mine drilled stacked, very predictable roll. Like stated above, when she hits dry she likes to move, but still controllable. I still have OOB finish, which seems tacky for a dry lane ball....

If you want to tame the erratic rection you should knock the shine off it. Try 1000 or 2000 grit.. Just enough for some traction and smoother finish.

i would definetly stay away from the label drilling. IMO its the worst drill you can put on a Lane 1 ball i would go with a stacked leverage drill they have always been money for me good luck with your new toy lol
