I finally know my PAP!! :) *** sniff ***
« on: May 16, 2005, 11:29:34 PM »
After nearly 2 years of bowling, I finally know what my PAP is.  Before having my TA plugged and drilled, I went to the driller at my home house where he had me roll some shots to get my PAP.  Are you ready??  It's 5 7/8" over and 1 3/16" up.  Don't know how I went this long without knowing it, but I feel complete now that I do.

Right back at ya'!!  I know PAPs aren't good or bad, they just are -- but being high trackers, does this allow us to get more out of a ball??  It seems, in my feeble mind, that all that surface in contact with the lanes would make for a better overall hooking action -- say comparing a high and med./low tracker each with 45* axis rotation.....

im probably the king of high track, high speed lots of forward roll, little rotation.

I don't know Nollster,...I seem to get a better read out of my stuff the more I migrate AWAY from the holes....albeit, still a high tracker ...but all in all, I'm not sure.....

well the initial track is like 1/2 from the thumbhole and flares out from there....it doesnt really cross over the thumbhole other wise i'd hear the thumping sound cause by rolling over the thumb....
