Pin positions
« on: July 27, 2005, 04:32:30 PM »
How would you get the maximum hook out of a bowling ball.  WOuld it be to put the pin 6" away from my PAP or closer? I told my pro shop owner to drill my Track Animal for max hook.  He seems to know enough about bowling balls, but some of the things he has told me don't make any sense, especially when I got my first ball I asked for a ball that hooked in oil and he pointed out the Brunswick Power Groove Teal/Purple Sanded, which worked good the first couple of weeks on heavier oil then only worked on light to medium conditions).  The first couple of weeks my Track Animal was working great, whether it was the condition or not I don't know, but lately by ball hasn't been hooking a lot, if any.  Last week it seemed like the lanes were so flooded, that I had to come in off the corner.

My PAP is about 1-1 1/2" from my Ring finger, I will get the other measurement in a couple of minutes, if I can figure it out.


I think that what you meant to say is that the pin is in this position.
If you PAP is there then you have the most unusual PAP location I have ever seen.

Do you knwo how to find your PAP?

not really.  PAP if I figured it out correctly one night is about 1-1 1/2" from my pin, sorry I get mixed up with all the bowling terms.
