Does any strike ball that Brad throws actually split the 8-9 like most bowlers expect to see or is that deflection off the pins into the 9 pin spot normal for him?

It's something I talked about in the review.  On this condition, he's got to play fairly deep with the Byte.  However, the Byte with that layout for him just doesn't quite drive through the pocket with the continuation we would like.  He carried but you wouldn't want to live with that reaction forever.

Okay... I hadn't read the review word for word yet... Might be worth making note of that in the video seeing as people are probably skipping the write up and going straight to the video.

I have a drilling question for the Byte. I throw the ball around 16 mph with revs similar to Layne. I track high and my PAP is 4-7/8 x 5/8. I am looking for a long and strong type reaction. I want it to go long but still have a decent amount of movement. What would you recommend?

Do you guys get rid of the equipment after the videos?  I kinda wish someone woould make videos comparing across companies, and even maybe show complimentary pieces together and where they may play.  Wouldn't be perfect comparison for everyone, but could help give a better idea of differences in equipment.
