10407 - Drilling & Layouts / Re: Symmetrical layout for low track low speed
« Last post by TWOHAND834 on Today at 07:42:23 AM »Our house shot is 43 feet and 25 or 26 ml. So plenty of oil, but it is tapered some so not a huge wall. I normally use strong balls that work well for me. A shines up.UFO and Halo Vision are 2 of my favorites along with the Venom shock. The Shock actually covers more boards than the 2 assyms. Just wanted to try the new AI technology in the Sublime and since my PAP has changed I really would like to.get the layout right. Thanks for all the input.
The reason your Shock could cover more boards is because of your ball speed. If it is as slow as you say it is; asyms tend to not be a good match because they have higher differentials and the intermediate diff will make the ball want to stand up and roll out. The Shock being a lower diff symmetrical will save some energy for the backend because the flare potential is pretty small by comparison. It wont over-flare and get pukey. I would think for you, balls like the Tundras, Hustles, and Raw Hammers would work well on lighter conditions and Rattlers, Shocks, and IQs when there is a little more oil simply because the diffs are lower but covers are stronger to handle the oil. You would tend to want to steer towards balls with different cover strengths as opposed to core strengths. My fear with the Sublime is that it has a pretty strong core and it would want to overpower the cover. If you go with a Sublime, you want to consider a low flaring layout so the core doesnt want to start up too soon.
