How to pick pin placement and top weight???
« on: March 17, 2006, 09:47:13 AM »
I am getting ready to get a new ball and I am wanting a new Heat Blast.  I currently throw mostly a Triton Elite and a Columbia Reaction Rev.  I am a lefty and throw from right side over the second arrow in from the left out to the 5 board and back.

Thanks!

Jeff

There is so much more info that a pro shop person needs to drill your ball correctly that you really should go to the pro shop and and ask him some questions.

Jeff,

The Heat Blast is a very good ball, I give it very high praise.

If you can give us some info on your game: PAP location, approx speed and revs we may be able to help you with a layout.

I normally throw the ball between 15 and 16 MPH.  I dont think I have a ton of revs but I put a good bit of revs on the ball.  What is PAP?

Just want to say thanks for explaining this.  This is not my thread, but I have wondered this for a long time.
