I am setting up my equipment based on the principal of having some equipment that read the midlane with arcing motion that suares up to the pocket sooner and some equipment that read the lane later and arcs harder.
I may thrown in a few special drillings later on.
so basically 3 balls that read midlane for there oil length and volumes and arc to the pocket. 3 more for backend reaction that charge hard at the break point.
so assuming surfaced to match oil voulumes:
Midlane reads
Heavy patterns not to long - Animal 5 x 3 pin 1.5 inch above midline
Med patterns - ?
Short or light patterns- Dry heat 5x3
Backend reads
Heavy patterns longer patterns -Unleashed - 4x4.5 pin 3: up.
Med light - ?
Now I have a Rule and an Untamed in my posession. I guessing thinking of drilling the Untamed 5 x 3 pin up for a little more lenght and go with the arc nature of the ball.
now the biggest mystery is what to do with the rule. do I go with a Rule(heavy), unleashed(med) or the the other way around.
what about a 5 x 4 (pin up). will it fit in behind my Unleashed.
or what about 5 x 6 pin up.
here is a test. I'm bowling at palos lanes( rick, rember that place?)
heads are an overlay and the rest wood.
they are using a new oil and it is thicker and slick but man it just goes away quick. last year I could fluff my animal and crush it for three games most of the time. the heads use to go and the midalne held up. now the new oil holds up in the heads but the rest of the lane dries up fast. like halfway in the 1st game.
I also think they are oiling shorter. so how would you setup a strong MB ball for that shot? based on your vids, Rick I would say I have a little less maybe the same on the ball but at least a second more on speed.
Im strongly considering the Rule with the pin up 5 x 6 polished.
so what is it going to be?
