    Kneeling isn't necessary. It might be more comfortable for some people that never used a fingertip ball before.

    Default The Tyrone Factor!!, deflection is needed!!

    Its been 8 1/2 hours, and I still feel no strane with my 16lb Beatdown, drilled with the Tri Grip,,, I need to break for beackfast, so I imagine a 16lb'er is ok for me.
    The article has me wondering if the lack of deflection that happens with the heavier balls, and the technology that makes even stronger, might just be what Tyrone mentioned to me over a year ago.

    He is a big guy, looks like a football player. He said his average went UP, when he changed weight, going from a 16, to a 14! He is a cranker. hummm

    this article seems to support the fact that a ball NEEDS some deflection, maybe that's what Tyrone was trying to get across to me!

    I do have that plugged ball that my wife didn't have any luck with that's 14lbs! I had it plugged, its the Freight Train, and I did give it a run a while back and had a low 600 series with it. Maybe I will get it out again and see how it works again.

    I swear,,, I have way too many balls.... talk about different grips, and drilling patterns on a ball, and sticking with ONE!! I can't even stick with one brand, or weight of ball!

    Just think how bad it would be if you could throw with either hand!
