Sounds like a legal issue, but since you didn't "legalize" (TM, copyright) the term...who knows what could happen. I guess Lane #1 might cry foul on the Fury if RICO is argued.

RICO on Lane #1 sheets is a fairly new phenomenon. I think in the past few months only.

hummmmm
quote:
You are right Trig I did not invent the lay out and yes I have been credited with it because of use at certain events.
The way I have used it with asymmetrical core balls is, since the mass bias reacts similar to a weight hole, where the mass bias differential is high enough, I place the weight hole, if necessary, along the pin to mass bias line at the horizontal axis coordinate and have gotten desired results.
Weight holes tend to alter asymmetrical core balls less than symmetrical, so for the most part, weight hole placement in an asymmetrical core ball will have less affect.

No I did not 'invent' this layout but I have used it numerous amounts of times in many different rolls and have had very good success.

what leg to stand on?  figure lane #1 is giving props to Ric on a popular drill pattern that has been around for years, flatterning no?  to stick a mans name on something he didnt invent?

The controversy is not the use of the layout, but the use of the name.
