Bowled on THS? Would like to see ball played up the gutter. I drilled mine pin down expecting better movement on tighter conditions. Not happy with the oob reaction. Gonna adjust the cover up to 4000, then try more grit if that doesn't work. Last notr, you make great videos. LF Fam.....

Much appreciated, and yes Kegel Main Street is a Kegel approved house shot, that's what we use at my center. I hit mine with a fresh 2000 pad by hand and it brought it to life.

I keep mine highly polished. I love to play deep inside when the lanes start breaking down. Haven't tried mine dull but it polished it is a touch longer than the Judgement and stronger at the break point.

Nice video Terry.

5.5 inches from pap allows me to get deeper and still playable even with mine at 2000 no polish

Terry,

That's a pretty long pin-PAP.

The LF web site says the stock surface is 1000+ polish, AND you changed it to 2000 dull.
What would you say was its oil handling ability/range with the stock surface and what did it become with the 2000 grit dull surface?

Thanks.

Ok, still don't like the reaction @500 ruff buff. Being drilled pin under, ball still gets good length, just a little to much for my liking. Ball now @4000 polished, if thats not working, I will then try 2000.

Mine is still 1000 polished but pin above the ring and it is clean and strong at the break point. Great complement to my Judgment.

Sorry for the late reply dude, but I have found for myself long pin to pap ratios works best for me with the equipment, for me it just didnt pick up as I needed/desired, and I hate using polish on THS. The 2000 finish allows me to read the ball from the front to back of the pin deck.  With the box finish and the long pin, it was very unpredictable and after the change it was night and day, very predictable read all the way thru the deck.

Great! Thanks, Terry.

FWIW, I've been using longer pin-PAPs (5.5 - 6") lately myself. Also finding duller balls more useful with those lower flare drillings.
