release changes and layouts
« on: April 08, 2009, 04:42:15 AM »
I've been thinking about some posts that I've read in the past and they have brought up a few questions to mind.
if you release up the back of the ball that would give you a higher track,Right?and if you come around the ball that would lower your rack,right?
now let say you have a ball with a 4x4 layout and you release the ball with your normal release with a pap of 5x0 and all is fine untill the ball starts to roll too soon,what do you do? I would move in to some fresh oil and add some rotation to promote skid to the dry.but if that release change drops your track now that 4x4 layout is a 3.5" or 3" or maybe even 2.5" pin to pap? and if that's the case then that release change to make the ball skid and hook later would make it just roll earlier?

Yes, if your release changes so that the new track is not a concentric circle to the original track the PAP will change.  --  JohnP
