pba experience layout questions
« on: September 09, 2007, 05:03:10 PM »
Ill start with this isn’t my first pba league but this league I really want to get to know the patterns and improve my game. Since I have bowled on these patterns already I have a good idea of what equipment that I have works where and on which conditions, but when watching the videos on bowl.com about the patterns, say the cheetah, the pros talk about weak balls with strong drills or strong balls with weak drills. I’m curious to what they consider weak and strong, short pin to pap would be strong since the ball starts earlier? And long pin to pap distances would be weaker and flippier since the ball gets more length? I really want to get to know more about layouts any input would be appreciated.
Thanks

you shoould try the 800 sanded .. with 1200 degree polish ... taht will causte friction and at the same time length ... works great on almost every kind of surface.
