Advice from pro shop drillers
« on: February 11, 2007, 09:58:40 PM »
I am in need of a little help.  To give you a little background on myself I am LH, with anywhere between 0 to 4 degrees axis tilt.  However, here is my dilema.  I used to only avg about 13-15 mph on ball speed in my home center.  Now since I have moved and to another center my ball speed is near 25mph.  I have lost the reaction on the back end because the ball blows through the breakpoint.  

What I am wanting to know can I change the Degree drilling offered in the ebonite drill sheet.  I am currently using 30 degree drillings but want to move it up to a hybrid of 60 or 90 degrees.  

What would your suggestion be in this situation?  Other then slower ball speed

paradigm (strong arc)
angular one box finish (long and strong)
angular one 800 grit (pin below fingers)
ice 4000 grit polished (drilled pin above and to the left of mid finger)
wmb (pin to the left strong arc)
seek and destroy (same as wmb)
one (long and strong 2000 grit sanded)
infinte one (out of box)
Awesome hook (pin to the 8 o clock spot)

of the four i use in this one house it is the

paradigm, both angulars, ice, and one(when i take the ball)

Majority of the balls listed are strong and not for the condition you're describing.  Perhaps a dry->light medium type ball will satisfy your needs, thus slowing down the "need for speed"

Too much ball for dry lanes (i.e. paradigm and angular)

Why are so many people SO STUPID????  Why do they insist on trying to throw the strongest equipment on shots that they aren't designed to be thrown on??? (Like the guy on the Storm board that wanted to put the MB in grip center with the pin WAY above the fingers because he wanted to use it on dry conditions...here's a hint, try a plastic ball!!!)  Can someone PLEASE explain this to me...PLEASE!!!

I've seen lots of reasons as to what is wrong with bowling...well, I really think IGNORANCE is the #1 problem with bowling...
