going to forward thumb pitch
« on: January 25, 2009, 12:17:48 PM »
what should i expect
both good and bad

i really try to keep my hand as relaxed as possible, but with the reverse i now have im still having to squeeze the ball, not allowing me a clean release

all im after is a clean release
any other input will go into the hard drive

thanks

Yep....you are on the right track...if 3/8 reverse go to 1/4 reverse or 3/16.

To avoid rockbowlers problem probably a little more front bevel will be needed but do the Mo Pinel bevel technique adding a touch (after testing) to the front of the thumbhole under the flat of the thumb.

I'd stay with your 1/8 lateral right if that is what your Pro shop recommended.
