How much difference in reaction will I see in the 2 different Thing Lives with same surface thrown on same pattern.


TL#1 2-3/4 x 2-1/4 pin is right of ring weight hole on pap. OOB surface

TL#2 4 x 2 pin under center bridge weight hole 1" past pap. OOB surface

one will be one smooth banana shaped arc, it'll cover a fair amount of boards, but will never "jerk".  Good control type ball

two will hook (flare) quite a bit more, and you'll get about 5 or so more boards overall than the #1 w/ a bigger backend as well....
