Title: Big Hurt and Torment videos
Post by: littlegreycat on May 03, 2013, 02:32:30 PM
I threw both balls at the same time.  Big Hurt was the right lane and the Torment left lane.  Lane conditions were typical on the left side of lanes non-league.  Ball speed is the same for both balls.  The camera for the Big Hurt was placed 7ft closer than the Torment so it looks much faster.  As with all my videos you see my first couple throws trying to figure out the lanes and balls. Then, you see me throw the line I like.

Both lanes played to 6-7 for both balls. Torment was 3-4 boards weaker line than my Big Hurt. If my Big Hurt was 2000 matte it should have played 5-6 boards stronger making my line close to 23-7.   

No added music, mobile viewable.

Big Hurt - 2000 with polish not oob.

Good comparisons! Thanks.

Any idea what your ball speed is at the backend. I'm guessing around 14.5 - 15.

I'm getting 18mph in these two videos.  I like to be around 17.5 as for the speed at the pins that has to be close to 15-15.5.  The last time I used a bowling alley that showed speed I was still throwing 16lbs regularly and 14.5-15 was normal for me at the deck.

 I change the videos at the top.  The second half of each video now has lane play from Brunswick prolanes.  Adding another level for comparison with Lord Field.  Again Torment was only throw on the left lane and the Big Hurt only on the right lane :)
