Question from masterchief247 via YouTube:
Q – Revolver video – On Tony’s ball, you can see the pin migrate over into a very stable position, which I think is really neat and helpful to see your ball reaction down lane.  How would I find the drilling that would do the same for me.  Is there a way to compare your PAP distance to different drillings to find it?

A – On the video you are referring to what you are seeing down lane for a second is actually my thumb hole.  As the ball makes it move off the break point for just a second there is grey blur, that is my thumb sleeve.

If you are wanting to see your ball motion down lane there are a few different ways you can place white tape on your ball to see the ball path.  Please check back with us in a week or so and we will have a video showing you how to tape your ball to get a better look at your ball motion.

Question from Reggie M:
Q – You guys have done a lot of demos on different balls.  I noticed for your layouts sometimes you have the pin above the fingers and sometimes below, stacked leverage.  How do you determine the layout you are going to use for a particular bowling ball or do you just have a favorite layout that you commonly use.

A – Good question, we do a little bit of everything.  We do use some of our favorite layouts.  More recently we have been trying to have at least one of the demo balls drilled with the manufacturer strongest recommended layout.

When we test balls we are trying to show the viewer what the balls potential is so we try and use more common layouts that they may use if they purchase that ball.  We do try and mix it up so that we can show different looks to our viewers.

The pin being above or below the fingers most of the time depends on the pin length from the cg and the distance we are trying to place the pin from our PAP.
