Lateral finger pitch questions?
« on: March 05, 2019, 02:09:39 AM »
Right handers - 0 left 3/4 right vs 3/8 left 3/8 right.  What do you use?  Any advantages for either? Any differences in ball roll/rotation/tilt?  Any right handers use 3/4 left 0 right?
375 RPM, 17-18 MPH, 45+ DEG AXIS ROTATION, 17 DEG TILT

I use 1/4 -1/2, but the more you move your finger pitches to the right, the potential to get around it more is there.

A lot to say on this topic!

Bottom line!  In the old non insert days, many pro shops as a result of Bill Taylors books used 1/8 left middle finger and 5/8 right ring for righties.

As the inserts came in many drillers went to 3/8 left 3/8 right. 

I believe that is a problem.  I will get back on this topic!
