Drilling for a cobalt
« on: May 14, 2006, 12:48:46 PM »
Hi guys.

Tomorrow I'll be getting my new 15 lb. cobalt and I'm looking to amximise the ball's natural reaction and want a skid-snap reaction from it. Am a tweener with about 14 mph speed.

Would be grateful for suggestions for the best drill to achieve this from the Lane#1 drillings or others.

All advice welcome. Thanks in advance,
Alan

Pins above the fingers around 5" from pap will usually give a bowler a nice skid flip reaction.

I'd subscribe to this, 4 1/2-5" pin from PAP. Hopefully you get a 3" pin ball to put the pin above the fingers and keep static weights legal. Put the CG stacked, so the reaction will be flippy.

Since the CB has a symmetric core, there should be no bad surprises through mass bias influence.
