Time to find a replacement
« on: September 15, 2005, 04:32:28 PM »
Well I am sitting here trying to decide which ball (core)
I am going to go with to remake my arsenal, seeing as the
excecutioner has become defunct.  Here are my questions to the other members:

1.  What has been the highest and lowest that you have finished your
    Frankie May, and how did it react at the extremes.

2.  What has been the highest and lowest that you have finished your
    solid AMB, and how did it react at the extremes.

I will end up getting the pearl of which ever I go with, and then getting about 2-3 solids, and putting different layouts on them.  Much like the executioners
2 solids a pearl and a particle.

I will probably get an AMB Solid and try a 315 on it just for S&G's

Thanks for the advice.

Sounds like the arsenal will look like this:

Flood:  AMB Particle  Stacked leverage
Heavy:Frankie May Stacked leverage (was a DC Scorcher)
Med-hvy:Frankie May  Label leverage(Was a Charcoal exe)
Med:G-3 Label leverage(Was a Charcoal exe with a 315)
Lgt-med:Centaur Bl/grn  Stacked leverage (Was a crimson exe)
Light:Slate Blue Label leverage

I will experiment with a violet gargoyle, and an AMB solid.  I'll probably do a 315 on each one.

This depends on if I decide to get a case of charcoals or not

Eric--I did a 105 on a Violet Gargoyle on a wet/dry THS works very well.  Evens out the dry.

IS it 105 or 135 that is close to label?

Where did you put your pin?

Tried to find Rollrite's site but it is down Eric to show good explanation.  Anyway mine is pin about 1:30 and CG mid grip.  There isn't much of a MB on the Violet as it's differential is .035 but it would be on left side of thumb facing label I am RH.  More or less as drawing below.  Works great on THS wet/dry smooths out over reaction on dry.  Shot my best scores on this type of condition last year using it. 754, 788 & 793.  I am lower tracker 4 7/8" over 1/2" up, medium speed, decent revs.  Hope this helps.

Yeah I looked on the info that I downloaded from the site, and it looks like
label, except you are just using a shorter pin (probably about 2")
