Seven Pin, why do you say you have no clue how fast you throw your ball? In your profile you say 17 to 18?

Qubica is a good indication, but it is only measuring velocity in the direction from foul line to pins.  There is also a right to left component.  The greater the angle of the ball at the sensors, the more that reading is off from the actual velocity.  A ball that reads 15 mph but is entering at a 45 degree angle is actually going over 20 mph.

Wow.  Didn't know that.  That is usually the read I get when playing around the 4th or 5th arrow.

is everyone's post taken for the lane readouts...  If they are then add 3.5mph and that is your speed @ the arrows.
