KATS rev rate measurement
« on: November 24, 2009, 03:59:20 AM »
I saw that they were showing Rash with a rev rate of 430. Well if his rev rate is only 430, I think I am, and probably alot of others are guessing a little high on ours. I claim that mine is probably around 350 if everythying is normal on my release. But I lways thought rash was in the 5''s.

If his os only 430, then maybe mine is only 300, I would like to have mine checked on a KATS maching. I think I may be surprised. What do you guys think of this.

Rash was probably not getting into the ball as much as normal on the show because of all of the friction and early hook.

I believe you are correct, Ronni only was throwing with something like 270... they were taking hand out

Randy Peterson aluded to the fact that the players were taking some hand out of the ball in order to try to get the ball to push down the lane.  Rash is definitely 500 when he is tagging on it.  He was softer with his release which will knock down the rev rate.

It's C.A.T.S., an acronym for Computer Aided Tracking System.
