Looking for a layout suggestion for the Slant HD I won, I asked over at bowlingchat but no joy. (I think you need a MoRich or Ebonite ball over there).
I'm thinking a 65º X 3 3/8†X 25º layout, for a sharper breakpoint. Which is pretty close to the Radical Drilling #2
Ball Spec's:
15 lbs. 3 oz
RG 2.47 / Diff .054 / Mid Diff .025 (from website)
Coverstock: Soaker Pearl
Finish: 1500 abralon then polished
Top weight: 3 oz
Pin to CG: 2 1/4"
CG is 1" from pin to MB reference line
My Spec's
Right handed
PAP: 5 7/8" over 5/8"up
Ball speed: 15.5 (on Qubica system), 16.5 first 15' (video method)
Rev's: 225 (averaged over 22 frames max 250)
Tilt: 13 Degrees (using axis tilt chart)
Rotation: 65 degrees (estimated from video using the overlay graphic)
The Lanes I mainly bowl on are Brunswick pro anvillanes (the ones with the breakpoint markers).They use a Kustodian ION lane machine (I don't know the brand of oil).
As for the condition's I've never got a straight answer. But if you walk down the lanes, The end of the buff area is at 41'. The main amount of oil appears to be 10 to 10.
My current balls in order of use wet, medium, dry are:
