Any WRW equipment pics?
« on: September 12, 2008, 06:27:49 AM »
Does anyone have any pics of walter ray williams, mo rich balls he used last year?  I know there was a pic or two of the LEVRG he used in one of the tourney's but that was some time ago.

Here's his bowlspace homepage:

Why not write him direct....

Too bad Rick Benoit couldn't keep up with the Brunswick Insiders website later in the season.

This is kind of off topic. But is WRW Jr. really a jerk in person? I've heard from a lot of people on here, that he is.

I was very fortunate to have got to meet and bowl with Walter in Thailand.  Both him and Paige were very nice to us.  I think we were one of the only teams not asking him and Tommy and Chris for autographs and pics though....It was neat seeing Walter in line at Dairy Queen and talking ice cream with him...lol...good times

Thanks Rich, and JMAC for the info.

WRW seems to like the reduced flare pin position.  A couple of the balls look to have the pin about 2" from his pap.

You're welcome.

I really think the majority of those are "control" type layouts that keep the pin at, or very close to, the 3 3/8" pin to PAP range.

Haven't been able to find any info to help nail down WRW Jr's PAP though...

I thought I read somewhere that his PAP was 5" over and 3/4" up.   I could be wrong but almost positive it's in the 5" over range.

I'm willing to bet in the ensane levrg pic his pin is close to 2" from his pap.  That would be a controlled layout for sure.

Chitown... if you're correct about his PAP being 5" x 3/4" the DAL on the N'Sane is roughly 50 deg. x 3" x 35 deg.

I'm with you in regards to it being more of a "control" layout, but it's not going to be a decreased flare layout.


On edit -

The layout is more of a sharp break point or midlane hook layout after looking through the suggested layouts on MoRich's website.

I found out his PAP through the kegel web site articles page.

WRW's PAP is: 5 7/8" over and 1/4" up

I don't think he used the LevRG in the Bottom pic on TV in the Etonic Championships.  I just watched it on youtube and didn't see it.

Does anyone have any additional pics of his equipment used on tour?

Storm does a great job providing pics of their staff's equipment used during tourney's.  I wish MoRich would add pics to their web site.
