Drill Suggestions?
« on: May 26, 2003, 10:32:51 AM »
I want a ball to fill in the fried lanes category. I chose an AMF Kick.

It is on the way and I am considering trying a drilling with the pin in my track. What kind of reaction can I expect out of a ball drilled like this?

The ball has a one inch pin....so would this make it difficult to have it drilled in that manner?

I am a high speed high revs player, I usually do not have to circle the lane much. If the above drilling cannot be done because of the specs on the ball, or if I do not like the reaction that will be described to me is there another drilling that could be suggested?


thanks

Excaliber,

Putting the pin in your track would give you a zero flare ball.  You basically take the core out of play and rely only on the coverstock.  It would react basically like a pancake ball.

Pin in track may be difficult to pull off however, because it might give you too much negative side-weight.  The Kick is a low flare ball anyway, so you'll get the same result putting the pin as far negative as it will go without creating the side-weight issue.
