Awesome Revs the best I've seen for league!
« on: January 18, 2008, 02:09:50 AM »
I keep telling people.

For me this is the first ball I have ever had that when I throw it....I think.

"Cheater ball"!

For me when it hits the head pin it strikes....!  I couldn't throw a ball worse than I am throwing this thing either.

2nd...the way I have drilled it is the perfect league shot ball.  Tons of midlane AND continuation and hit!

I have a friend of mine who is not yet used to playing inside of the third arrow and is also uncomfortable throwing inbetween the second and third arrow.
Fairly new bowler great release.  

He usually has one 230 game a night with this ball and has to move and puts it down.  I keep telling him....if you get comfortable with where this ball wants to be played you will average over 700 the rest of the year!

I put it down for jollies last night and don't know why!

GReat ball.

REgards,

I just picked up a used one and had it plugged and redrilled.  Went pin under ring, 4" from PAP, MB 5" from PAP, no weighthole.  Haven't changed the surface.  There usually isn't enough oil where I bowl league to use it.  The week I had it drilled, I bowled in a tournament on old wooden lanes.  Was able to use it the first three games and shot 243-232-225 for 700 on the nose.  Great ball.  I too feel at times like I'm cheating.  The hit is unbelievable.

What layout did you use LL?

Pin over ring(touching) (about 4 3/4 for me) mass bias....about 2 inches off thumb.

Mo would call assymetric flip drill.

This mass bias position gives me great midlane and then powerful angular continuation due to the pin up position!

Trememdous hit.

I'm throwing this worse than any ball I own(different thumb insert than others).
Scoring higher than all other balls and carrying more than ever.

For an oily crown the best ball ever.

Equal to my great Revs leverage drilled Pantera of years ago!  See review!

Have seen many other drill configurations that dramatically more and hook differently on this ball.

As we almost never say on the left!  Stand left fling right!  (you righties know what I'm talkin about! with all your stuff!)

REgards,

A friend of mine that throws with good revs and side roll like I do....has that drilling.

His pushes a lot farther than mine and has much less midlane.

Still a strong sharp backend but not as early as mine!

REgards,

PS your axis rotation is important in the equation and how much midlane oil/friction you expect to see.  Your drilling is better for dryer midlanes than what I am throwing on....on the PROPER...left side!
