Title: What Drill
Post by: alex on July 12, 2006, 07:28:33 AM

I am getting a Machine for med conditions and MeanMachine for oily conditions.My problem with drilling these two is that i do not know if i am speed or rev dominant which according to the drll sheets you must know.My pap is 4/1/4 over and 1/2 up,i am right handed,i through around 14 to 15 mph and i like to play down and in and i am a stroker. Could someone help me out here with some suggested drillings,thanks

Well...for oil, you would want something to get started up early..but you do have a tisker lower speed. I would go somewhere 3 3/8 stacked. As for the Machine, I would put the pin about 4-4 1/2 inches from PAP, about 2-2 1/2 inches above midline. Combined with the compound surface of the Machine, the Machine will push further and be able to handle less oil than the Mean.

alex,

More than likely you are speed dominant....rarely does a rev dominant player play a straight down and in shot.

I like clint's suggestion for the Mean Machine. Place the pin 3 3/8 from PAP...I would keep it 1 3/4- 2 inches above your midline. Have the MB placed 3 3/4 from PAP on your VAL(vertical axis line). This will help the ball get into a good strong roll for you.

I also like Clint's suggestion for the Machine. I would place the pin 4 1/4 from PAP 2 1/2inches above your midline. I would place the MB at 4 1/4 from PAP as well....try to have your ball driller place it between position 2 and position 3 on Track's drill chart. This will allow for length and backend...essentially a very good complement to the Mean Machine.

Goodluck,
Carl
