Absolutebowling,

Thank you for the feedback and the drilling recommendation for the Sideways.  I kinda think I'm drilling my bowling balls too strong for a shorter lighter oil or even a swing ball.  I think they are rolling out or burning up.  My ball speed is fast so on a fresh oil pattern I'm averaving very well, but when they dry up and I have to move in deep, my bowling balls don't turn the corner.

Thanks again for your time and suggestion,
Barry

I don't think it belongs in the Lane 1 forum, we even talked about the AMF Sideways, but I know you're just being funny.

I agree that my ball speed is fast and I can adjust it, but it seems the bowling balls are rolling out or burning up, not throwing them through the break point.

But all feedback is welcome, maybe even a release recommendation.

Static weights have the same minor affect they did in the dark ages when they were all drillers had to work with.  Now we have pin to PAP distance mass bias position and balance hole location, diameter and depth (in decreasing order of affect).  These all have so much more affect than statics that statics become negligible.  --  JohnP

I'm with dp on this.  The differences of reaction have virtually NOTHING to do with the ending static weights.  It is based on how the core has been tipped or rotated which dictates the reaction AND can cause there to be static weights.  Static weights are just measurements at this point.  Like dp said, how can a certain measurement that has 10000s of ways of achieving it possibly dictate a specific reaction?  In the simplest terms a 1/2oz sideweight can be achieved by laying a ball out with the pin up or down in regards to the fingers.  Do these layouts roll the same?  According to some they should because the sideweight is the same.  
Now also in strictly Physics terms, something that is <1oz has next to nothing of an affect of something that is 7-8lbs.  Please stop the insanity and realize that its not the static weight itself and that its the 97 other variables that got you to that static weight.
