  • Chad McLean and Nichole Thomas take a dive into layouts and why they do in fact matter. Nichole doesn't have a ton of knowledge when it comes to layouts and Chad helps break down what the numbers in the VLS system mean, and how they will affect ball motion. All shots performed on a house pattern.

    Chad, can you give me the best answer for this question.
    Describing the
    Reacta shine ,
    Reacta gloss,
    Smooth edge & rough edge
    If I was to do 3000 finish and these over the top of that.
    Which should make the finished 5000 to 6500.
    What will be the differences with reaction.

    What type of layout would you recommend for a bowler with match speed and revs with a P.A.P of 4 1/2 right and 3/8 down. Want a layout for playing straight and one for moving left and hooking the lane. Really appreciate yall

      Pin down syms aren't the best idea without balance holes because the core is weaker overall and you will leave a crap load of corners

      ​@@dejabowler873I have a phase 3 that is pin down. Have it right in the ring finger. Causes for a smoother ball reaction and really tames the p3 compared to a p2.

  • @mustangm210
    @mustangm210 2 месяца назад

    I'm probably going to have it drilled with the pin to the side of the ring finger which will be a little weaker than my Absolute Power and Gem which are both pin above the ring finger. I think that have it go a little longer just like my TNT Infused..

    What about a FULL ROLLER set up. I only have one layout.

  • @herestoyoudoc
    @herestoyoudoc 3 месяца назад

    Pin-to-PAP is really an angle in disguise.
    We can do the math this way: The radius of the bowling ball is about 4.3". The ratio of P2P to the radius is the angle from the pin in radians. You convert radians to degrees by multiplying by 180 and dividing by π. Or a far easier way is just to divide 90 by 6.75. Either way, you get 13.3 as the factor. Thus P2P * 13.3 = angle in degrees.
    So a 4.5" pin is approximately 60º down from the pin. A 5" pin is approximately 67º. A 6" pin is approximately 80º.
    The closer you are to 90º, the less time it has before the ball stabilizes around the PSA, also known as the "high-RG axis". This controls the amount of flare.
    There's some mechanical dynamics in how flare works that means that P2P placement doesn't have a linear effect on flare. This "slop zone" where the effect is the least is near about 67º, which happens to be the 5" P2P. This is why 5" is a good choice for a lot of bowlers, because it gives the most forgiveness for inconsistency in release.
