Layout for a Mean Machine
« on: July 17, 2006, 12:51:55 PM »
I got lucky and won one now I have to get it drilled.  Any suggestions?  I have a lot of speed and not much hand.  I'm looking to get the most I can out of this ball for a heavy condition.  Any comments or suggestions are greatly appreciated.  Thanks,  Joe.

Joe,

Are you able to provide us with your PAP location?

Not sure where it's located.  Been shown once before but I honestly forgot how to find it.

If you can go to your local pro shop and see if they can find it for you. Let us know what they say. It is really difficult to help with a layout without atleast that info.

Carl,

My driller is about an hour away from my house.  I would really love to find out for you but I don't really have time to get by there right now.  Out of the patterns on the Track website which one would you recommend that come's close to my style?  I was looking at pattern 1 or maybe pattern 2.  Thanks for any help  you can give.

Joe,

I would suggest laying it out VERY strong.

Have the pin placed 3 3/8 from PAP about 1 3/4 above your midline....have the MB placed 3 3/4 from PAP on your VAL. This will get the ball started up, which is what a speed dominant bowler needs.


Goodluck,
Carl

Hey Carl,  I found my PAP it's 5 3/8.  Does this sound right?  If so will the layout you suggested still work.  

Thanks,

Joe

Joe,

That layout would be perfect. Give that a try.....if need be later you can adjust the surface.

Keep us posted,
Carl
