I know it is still early, but has anyone has any success with the Jigsaw Corner out there?

I am a little concerned when I read some of the reviews that you want a ball that is smoother off the spot, as the Corner is designed to be more angular, and if that will cause too much over/under at the breakpoint.

Thanks for all your help.

The Jigsaw Corner has been very successful for bowlers out here. Two days ago we drilled one of a guy who shot 690 in team. As long as it isn't drilled too angular off the spot it has been good. It allows you to get more area if you aren't a high rev player. If you are a high rev player it might not be the ideal choice. I hope this answers your question. If you have anymore feel free to ask

Thanks for the insight. I guess my next question is where is the cutoff for a "high-rev" player, LOL? I have been told by coaches my rev rate is about 390-400, would that be considered high? I think of myself more of a tweener, personally.

RC - For drillings we are thinking shorter pins with stronger balls that are just smooth and arcing. Right now what we think will work best is the Sting, Nasty, Jacked and Jigsaw Corner. Jigsaw corner more for people with less hand. For the Sting the MB at about 65-80 degrees to decrease the flare and smooth it out. Hope this answers your question, if you have anymore feel free to ask me.

QUESTION?
When you say "shorter pins" Do you mean closer to the PAP? or pin in balls? Just looking for clarification.
Thanks in advance.

Shorter meaning Pin to PAP, this will smooth the ball out for you

For this "smooth" ball reaction, where would the MB be placed? More towards the track or towards the VAL?

cheers

last Sunday i bowled on the usbc pattern, but was on a different lane surface. i was able to play around 10-8 for the first game, using a Sauce: 70* x 4", pin up. the x-hole is on VAL above my pap to decrease flare. surface was 500 / 4k
as long as i stayed firm it gave me a nice reaction. unfortunately we had to move pairs for the tourney and thus you see how important it is following a group who plays them correctly.

did see some guys at end of day using pearls and slow looping it. not sure what layouts were, but looked like something that picked up in midlane and rolled strong for them. skid/flip didn't have as good as carry inside.
