    You might try pin down which will make the ball start it's hook sooner rather then later.

    The only time I try to move in is when the reviews of patterns say to. Again, not any detail on the players that did those reviews. For instance, SHARK pattern. Everyone seems to be able to get some hook inside and ball continues to make turn. I dont think I habe enough hand or my equipment is drilled wrong. I have 2 "big" hook balls if you will, 1 being the defiant with pin over ring finger with weight hole. Not sure where everything is based on angles(not very knowledgable on layouts). But I wanted a "big" hook out of that ball. Now I have a STORM NANO with pin above ring and can get more out of that ball, not just on THS, but on numerous other patterns as well. I just picked up the Aura from Brunswick and the Nightmare from DV8. Should I request pin down?

    Request a dual angle layout. Pin up, pin down stuff is so outdated it isn't funny. Being speed dominant you want smaller angles. I would suggest a 50* drill angle, 4" pin to PAP, 30* VAL. This layout allows for a strong mid-lane read, good flare and easy revving with a strong back end continuation. This is the layout I used on my Marauder and it can keep up with the stronger balls.

    Here's another article by Mo that may answer some of your questions: http://wiki.bowlingchat.net/wiki/ind...=Mo_Fact_Sheet

    Hope this helps.
