Was I right?
« on: November 28, 2017, 08:44:49 AM »
I have a teammate that wanted my recommendation for ball characteristics for his style. When I got to thinking about it, I'm wondering if I was accurate in my suggestion. He has the following characteristics - 14 mph, ~300 rpm, medium tilt, and low axis rotation.

My suggestions were looking for cleaner covers so medium strength and lower like R2X or less, medium-high RG, low-medium diff, probably avoid 2k and down on the surface, and 4.5"-5" PIN-PAP on the drillings but of course his PSO will influence that. The PSO will actually influence the whole thing but I want to fact check myself I guess.

My reasoning for the above characteristics was to help get the ball down the lane without burning off rotation too soon resulting in early roll like he sees a lot.

PS - I know the best recommendation is to have him learn to increase his axis rotation when the lanes call for it.

His stats are similar to my own. Your advice seems to be what I look for.

Awesome, I started contradicting myself after thinking I sent him down the wrong path.
