Title: Need Help w/layout of RotoGrip Uproar
Post by: john178 on July 01, 2014, 06:59:14 PM: Based on the layout of this Uproar, what is the ball suppose to do on the lane ?

My PAP coordinates are Over 5 7/16 and UP 1 5/8.

The ball goes long, appears that it will hit the 1-3 pocket but doesn't. It actually overhooks (crosses over) no matter how far right I throw it.

If you base the layout off some of the more common PAP calculations, you're looking at a ball that will have length and good backend movement

If that's what's happening, I'd suggest you are seeing one hell of a lot of dry!! I'd suggest a lot weaker ball or moving about 10 boards deeper with your feet.

The ball does not have a motion hole. Should I have one drilled into it ?

I've tried adjusting the cover but that didn't help.

Hell NO! That will make it even react harder off the backend. And with your PAP you'd use a different Motion hole layout. Correct one for you is pin next to ring and CG mid grip. I Motion hole use Pin over ring and CG mid grip as I am right at 5" over and 0. See http://radicalbowling.com/uploads/downloads/radical-layouts.pdf

My release ballspeed is between 15.9 and 17. My rev rate is between 250 and 270.
