throttle-r drill
« on: September 14, 2003, 07:47:33 AM »
how would the throttle-r react if it is drilled negative with the pin above the ring finger and the cg below the middle finger thrown by a medium speed medium rev stroker on medium oil lanes?

Depending on your PAP, it sounds like a basic stacked length/flip drilling.  What makes this negative for you?  Both the pin and CG would be right of your grip center.

Oops, re-read seems to be required. He said "cg below the middle finger"; I believe that would produce negative side weight. I think that's what he means by "negative".

If baseballa has true "med revs and medium speed", this may produce a very mild a backend reaction on all but short oil and very clean backends. If you need this much control from what some consider a strong resin pearl, maybe another ball may provide a better starting point, like a Messenger Ti Pearl.

You're right Charles.  I read that 3 times always thinking CG below ring finger.
